The Antalya Collection
The sun broiled down on Antalya, and Ted wondered why he’d chosen July for this trip. There was one seat left outdoors at the Seli cafe, and it faced a beautiful woman in royal blue linen.
“May I?”
“Of course.”
Her smile was dazzling white. She was clearly a native of the Turquoise Coast. He ordered a raki and mopped his brow with a bandanna.
“The heat bothers you?”
“Yes. How do you stand it?”
“It’s these earrings. You see, the breeze blows right through them. Also, the colors. They make you feel cooler, yes?”
He peered at them and put away the bandanna, surprised.
“As a matter of fact….yes!”
