〃Was　he　the　one　who　put　the　holes　in　our　bugs　tires？〃

〃Yes；　he　was。　It　was　after　school　and　your　daddy　caught　him　doing　it。〃　Now　she

hesitated　again；　but　there　was　no　question　of　evasion　now；　it　was　reduced　to

tell　the　truth　or　tell　a　lie。

〃Your　daddy　。。。　sometimes　he　does　things　hes　sorry　for　later。　Sometimes　he

doesnt　think　the　way　he　should。　That　doesnt　happen　very　often；　but　sometimes

it　does。〃

〃Did　he　hurt　George　Hatfield　like　the　time　I　spilled　all　his　papers？〃

Sometimes　—

（Danny　with　his　arm　in　a　cast）

—　he　does　things　hes　sorry　for　later。

Wendy　blinked　her　eyes　savagely　hard；　driving　her　tears　all　the　way　back。

〃Something　like　that；　honey。　Your　daddy　hit　George　to　make　him　stop　cutting

the　tires　and　George　hit　his　head。　Then　the　men　who　are　in　charge　of　the　school

said　that　George　couldnt　go　there　anymore　and　your　daddy　couldnt　teach　there

anymore。〃　She　stopped；　out　of　words；　and　waited　in　dread　for　the　deluge　of

questions。

〃Oh；〃　Danny　said；　and　went　back　to　looking　up　the　street。　Apparently　the

subject　was　closed。　If　only　it　could　be　closed　that　easily　for　her　—

She　stood　up。　〃Im　going　upstairs　for　a　cup　of　tea；　doc。　Want　a　couple　of

cookies　and　a　glass　of　milk？〃

〃I　think　Ill　watch　for　Dad。〃

〃I　dont　think　hell　be　home　much　before　five。〃

〃Maybe　hell　be　early。〃

〃Maybe；〃　she　agreed。　〃Maybe　he　will。〃

She　was　halfway　up　the　walk　when　he　called；　〃Mommy？〃

〃What；　Danny？〃

〃Do　you　want　to　go　and　live　in　that　hotel　for　the　winter？〃

Now；　which　of　five　thousand　answers　should　she　give　to　that　one？　The　way　she

had　felt　yesterday　or　last　night　or　this　morning？　They　were　all　different；　they

crossed　the　spectrum　from　rosy　pink　to　dead　black。

She　said：　〃If　its　what　your　father　wants；　its　what　I　want。〃　She　paused。

〃What　about　you？〃

〃I　guess　I　do；〃　he　said　finally。　〃Nobody　much　to　play　with　around　here。〃

〃You　miss　your　friends；　dont　you？〃

〃Sometimes　I　miss　Scott　and　Andy。　Thats　about　all。〃
