The way that I moved myself around, and very quickly, was by a combination of being able to fly, but countering this upward tendency with a deadweight ball that I would thrust in front of me, so that its momentum would carry me forward a great distance, and then back to earth. I could travel really fast this way, and it was kind of fun. I didn\\u2019t need a car or anything else. After wandering aimlessly around the outlying regions like this for some time, I eventually ended up at a diner in the city. Going inside, the place was mostly empty, but when I got to a booth at the back, I found my ex-wife [redacted] there waiting, by herself, as if in ambush. I didn\\u2019t acknowledge her, but sat myself in an adjacent booth facing the opposite way. There I waited for a time, stridently ignoring her. After a moment, I heard her say, \\u201cOkay, then...\\u201d recognizing my rebuke, her tone suggesting that I was being childish.
