At
the
end
of
September
,
Allen
was
hired
by
the
huge
Anchor
Hocking
Glass
Corporation
,
where
Billy
’
s
sister
Kathy
had
once
worked
.
His
job
was
to
pack
the
glassware
as
the
women
took
it
off
the
moving
belt
.
But
sometimes
he
worked
as
a
selector
,
examining
the
product
just
off
the
belt
.
It
was
a
torturous
job
to
stand
there
—
ears
deafened
by
the
roar
of
the
flame
jets
and
air
blowers
—
pick
up
the
still
-
warm
glasses
,
examine
them
for
defects
and
stack
them
on
open
trays
for
the
packers
to
remove
.
There
was
a
great
deal
of
switching
between
Tommy
,
Allen
,
Philip
and
Kevin
.
With
Arthurs
approval
,
Allen
had
rented
a
three
-
bedroom
duplex
apartment
in
Somerford
Square
in
the
northeast
section
of
Lancaster
—
1270K
Sheridan
Drive
.
Everyone
liked
the
place
.
Allen
liked
the
gray
,
weathered
fence
that
hid
the
apartments
from
view
of
the
parking
area
and
the
highway
.
Tommy
had
a
room
of
his
own
for
his
electronic
equipment
,
and
there
was
a
separate
room
for
a
studio
.
Ragen
had
a
walk
-
in
closet
that
he
could
lock
in
one
of
the
bedrooms
upstairs
,
where
he
kept
all
his
guns
except
the
9
-
millimeter
automatic
.
He
kept
that
on
top
of
the
refrigerator
,
back
where
none
of
the
children
would
see
or
reach
it
.
Marlene
came
to
the
apartment
every
evening
after
her
job
at
Hecks
department
store
.
When
he
worked
the
second
shift
,
she
would
wait
for
him
to
get
home
around
midnight
,
and
she
would
stay
most
of
the
night
.
Before
morning
,
she
would
always
go
back
to
her
parents
’
home
.
Marlene
was
finding
Billy
moodier
and
more
unpredictable
than
ever
before
.
At
times
he
would
storm
around
the
apartment
,
smashing
things
.
He
would
stare
at
the
walls
in
a
trance
,
or
he
would
go
to
the
easel
and
paint
in
a
fury
.
Always
,
he
was
a
soft
-
spoken
,
considerate
lover
.
Tommy
didn
’
t
tell
her
that
he
was
getting
shaky
.
He
was
missing
work
.
And
he
was
missing
time
.
Things
seemed
to
be
happening
closer
and
closer
together
;
they
were
moving
into
another
bad
mix
-
up
time
.
Arthur
should
have
been
in
control
,
but
for
some
reason
he
was
losing
domination
.
No
one
was
minding
the
store
.
Arthur
blamed
the
confusion
on
Marlene
and
insisted
that
the
relationship
be
broken
off
.
Tommy
felt
his
heart
jump
.
He
wanted
to
protest
,
but
he
was
too
afraid
of
Arthur
to
tell
him
that
he
had
fallen
in
love
with
Marlene
.
He
knew
he
had
shaved
the
rules
close
enough
several
times
to
be
in
danger
of
being
classified
as
undesirable
.
Then
he
heard
Adalanas
voice
.
"
That
’
s
not
fair
,
"
she
said
.
"
I
am
always
fair
,
"
Arthur
said
.
