“And I get to tend the rabbits…Lennie giggled with happiness.”

“I can still tend the rabbits, George? I didn't mean no harm, George.”

“Lennie begged, "Le's do it now. Le's get that place now." "Sure right now. I gotta. We gotta.”

“Lennie said quietly, "It ain't no lie. We're gonna do it. Gonna get a little place an' live on the fatta the lan'.”

“Her body rocked with silent giggles and my lips turned up. I loved making her happy.”

“Just FYI," Lenny says, his face still red from the nasty sunburn. "I've got a shitload of condoms in my duffle. Front pocket.""For what?""Listen if you don't know what condoms are for I'm not gonna teach you.""I know what they're for, shithead. I just highly doubt you're getting any ass on this trip.""Watch me," Lenny says. "My boy gets action all the time.""Yeah, I bet your right hand is tired from all that action" I mumble as I walk to the bathroom. "I'm a leftie!" Lenny calls after me.I try not to wince from thinking about it.”
