But
when
the
little
red
-
haired
woman
came
in
—
the
one
who
always
pinched
my
cheek
and
joked
about
find
ing
a
girl
friend
for
me
—
I
recalled
that
she
came
in
most
often
when
Donner
was
out
to
lunch
and
Gimpy
was
be
hind
the
counter
.
Gimpy
had
often
sent
me
out
to
deliver
orders
to
her
house
.
Involuntarily
,
my
mind
totaled
her
purchases
to
$
4
.
53
.
But
I
turned
away
so
that
I
would
not
see
what
Gimpy
rang
up
on
the
cash
register
.
I
wanted
to
know
the
truth
,
and
yet
I
was
afraid
of
what
I
might
learn
.
"
Two
forty
-
five
,
Mrs
.
Wheeler
,
"
he
said
.
The
ring
of
the
sale
.
The
counting
of
change
.
The
slam
of
the
drawer
.
"
Thank
you
,
Mrs
.
Wheeler
.
"
I
turned
just
in
time
to
see
him
putting
his
hand
into
his
pocket
,
and
I
heard
the
faint
clink
of
coins
.
How
many
times
had
he
used
me
as
a
go
-
between
to
deliver
packages
to
her
,
undercharging
her
so
that
later
they
could
split
the
difference
?
Had
he
used
me
all
these
years
to
help
him
steal
?
I
couldn
’
t
take
my
eyes
off
Gimpy
as
he
clomped
around
behind
the
counter
,
perspiration
streaming
down
from
under
his
paper
cap
.
He
seemed
animated
and
good
-
natured
,
but
looking
up
he
caught
my
eye
,
frowned
and
turned
away
.
I
wanted
to
hit
him
.
I
wanted
to
go
behind
the
counter
and
smash
his
face
in
.
I
don
’
t
remember
ever
hat
ing
anyone
before
—
but
this
morning
I
hated
Gimpy
with
all
my
heart
.
Pouring
this
all
out
on
paper
in
the
quiet
of
my
room
has
not
helped
.
Every
time
I
think
of
Gimpy
stealing
from
Mr
.
Donner
I
want
to
smash
something
.
Fortunately
,
I
don
’
t
think
I
’
m
capable
of
violence
.
I
dont
think
I
ever
hit
anyone
in
my
life
.
But
I
still
have
to
decide
what
to
do
.
Tell
Donner
that
his
trusted
employee
has
been
stealing
from
him
all
these
years
?
Gimpy
would
deny
it
,
and
I
could
never
prove
it
was
true
.
And
what
would
it
do
to
Mr
.
Donner
?
