6. Hastings-on-Hudson

Julie recounts how she gave a book talk at the Riverrun bookstore in Hastings-on-Hudson and her old love shows up at the signing. He shows her the train ticket he took, and she realizes for the first time, he did try to come to Paris to see her.

The book he had written her address on was stolen on the train. They spend the evening together (mostly platonically it seems) wondering what it might have been like had things turned out differently.
