He, being someone who hated sitting in bars, where it was warm and cozy and stocked with tension-relieving booze, suggested we take a walk. I bundled up and went along with it, in the name of adventure and because he seemed so earnestly excited. We walked the Brooklyn Heights Promenade and into a park in Dumbo.
