The elaborate preparations, the long good-byes of most travelers, were not for them.

This is going to have to be fast, so no long good-byes, okay?

In his mind, Hausner made up a long good-bye to Miriam.

When the morning came for their departure, he had come in an hour late after a long good-bye with Ardith.

This is getting to be a long good-bye.

But after the peck, which was okay, he returned for a longer good-bye.

"I guess there won't be any long good-byes."

"There's probably not going to be time for any long good-byes."

If it were not that they must presently say a long good-bye she would be angry with him.

This would spare them both a long and uncomfortable good-bye.
