“She was right, as she usually was. Although Steve was in his middle fifties, he was as much in love with Kate as he had been almost thirty years ago when they drove at midnight in a darkened car twenty miles west of Havana to catch THE SMALL BOAT in which they escaped from Castro’s Cuba. She had been his support then, assuring him: ‘You’ll find a job somewhere, Estéfano. The whole world needs doctors.’ And when at the last moment he had been overcome with fear, it was she who would not allow him to falter: ‘This boat! Crowded or not, this boat!’ and it was almost as if she had willed the frail craft north to the Florida Keys and freedom.
…
When he opened his office on what was to become Calle Ocho, Southwest Eighth Street near midtown Miami, it was her money that paid the rent, and during the first three years she served as his assistant so they could save money, and she encouraged those bold steps which led to Steve’s becoming head of his own clinic with four associates under him, and then officer of one of the first Cuban banks, and finally its president.”~~~James A. Michener: CARIBBEAN. Ch.15 The Twins.
