Max dug brunettes, but blondes were never a no-no. That broad in Paris all over him like a plague, but cute, and knew her Degas like he knew ***** Camille or such like name; cute dame. Nous avons des relations sexuelles, she said. It was all French to him, but her friend translated, and Max said of course, and so they did. Max inhaled his cigarette remembering. The bar was empty except for some broad at the far end. He'd give her talk, but he was too tired, and besides he knew her guy, and she'd be poxed. Then there was the blonde in Hamburg. Neat dame, nice figure, short on English words, but got the gist, showed him around the city, spoke of her old man, some former SS, had a stroke, never spoke. Max dug her deep; made out for a month or two, then split after some talk of her sister being around too much. Max exhaled. Sipped his beer. The broad at the far end of the bar smiled. Max smiled back.  She wore black. Her guy had died. Maybe she'd not got the pox, maybe the guy lied.

THE GUY LIED.
