Never　in　his　life　had　he　been　willfully　vicious　when　he　was　sober。

（Except　when　you　almost　killed　George　Hatfield。）

〃No！〃　he　cried　into　the　darkness。　He　brought　both　fists　crashing　down　on　his

legs；　again　and　again　and　again。

*　*　*

Wendy　sat　in　the　overstuffed　chair　by　the　window　with　Danny　on　her　lap；

holding　him；　crooning　the　old　meaningless　words；　the　ones　you　never　remember

afterward　no　matter　how　a　thing　turns　out。　He　had　folded　onto　her　lap　with

neither　protest　nor　gladness；　like　a　paper　cutout　of　himself；　and　his　eyes

didnt　even　shift　toward　the　door　when　Jack　cried　out　〃No！〃　somewhere　in　the

hallway。

The　confusion　had　receded　a　little　bit　in　her　mind；　but　she　now　discovered

something　even　worse　behind　it。　Panic。

Jack　had　done　this；　she　had　no　doubt　of　it。　His　denials　meant　nothing　to　her。

She　thought　it　was　perfectly　possible　that　Jack　had　tried　to　throttle　Danny　in

his　sleep　just　as　he　had　smashed　the　CB　radio　in　his　sleep。　He　was　having　a

breakdown　of　some　kind。　But　what　was　she　going　to　do　about　it？　She　couldnt　stay

locked　in　here　forever。　They　would　have　to　eat。

There　was　really　only　one　question；　and　it　was　asked　in　a　mental　voice　of

utter　coldness　and　pragmatism；　the　voice　of　her　maternity；　a　cold　and

passionless　voice　once　it　was　directed　away　from　the　closed　circle　of　mother　and

child　and　out　toward　Jack。　It　was　a　voice　that　spoke　of　self…preservation　only

after　son…preservation　and　its　question　was：

（Exactly　how　dangerous　is　he？）

He　had　denied　doing　it。　He　had　been　horrified　at　the　bruises；　at　Dannys　soft

and　implacable　disconnection。　If　he　had　done　it；　a　separate　section　of　himself

had　been　responsible。　The　fact　that　he　had　done　it　when　he　was　asleep　was　　in　a

terrible；　twisted　way　　encouraging。　Wasnt　it　possible　that　he　could　be　trusted

to　get　them　out　of　here？　To　get　them　down　and　away。　And　after　that　。。。

But　she　could　see　no　further　than　she　and　Danny　arriving　safe　at　Dr。　Edmondss

office　in　Sidewinder。　She　had　no　particular　need　to　see　further。　The　present
