The Tessabot’s data included entries on the Delilah/Brandita situation, naturally. With a careless glance at the motorcyclist’s feet, she said, “I see she kept the good luck shoes, but it’s hard to imagine why.”
Brandita smiled, but it looked painful. “Let’s just say without them I would never have been able to address The Bathroom Issue.”
The lucky shoes were steel-toed workboots, and The Bathroom Issue was a suspected haunting. Brandita (for by then we had broken up) had addressed it with a complete renovation.
I looked again at the sidecar. It was a bathtub.
Brandita noticed my reaction. “Not just any bathtub, pal. The bathtub.”
“Hop in!” said the passenger, scooting up to the front of the vessel. Then he laughed. “She can’t see me. Neither can the sexy robot. But I knew right away that you and me would hit it off.” His smile dimmed. “Don’t let the spook thing bother you, man. We’re just two guys sitting in a tub. What could be more natural?”
Tessa slid onto the pillion seat behind Brandita. They were waiting for me, my feet leaden and my temples throbbing with excitement or a record-setting case of heebie-jeebies. Brandita carefully adjusted her goggles, and the same process was repeated with the pillowcase the wore tied over her hair, presumably in lieu of a helmet.
