The
wind
was
blowing
the
boats
at
their
moorings
,
nuzzling
them
up
against
the
wet
rubber
tires
along
the
dock
so
they
made
a
sound
like
they
were
laughing
at
us
.
The
water
was
giggling
under
the
boards
,
and
the
sign
hanging
over
the
door
to
the
bait
shack
that
read
"
SEAMAN
'S
SERVICE
--
CAPT
BLOCK
,
PROP
"
was
squeaking
and
scratching
as
the
wind
rocked
it
on
rusty
hooks
.
The
mussels
that
clung
to
the
pilings
,
four
feet
out
of
water
marking
the
tide
line
,
whistled
and
clicked
in
the
sun
.
The
wind
had
turned
cold
and
mean
,
and
Billy
Bibbit
took
off
his
green
coat
and
gave
it
to
the
girl
,
and
she
put
it
on
over
her
thin
little
T-shirt
.
One
of
the
loafers
kept
calling
down
,
"
Hey
you
,
Blondie
,
you
like
fruitcake
kids
like
that
?
"
The
man
's
lips
were
kidney-colored
and
he
was
purple
under
his
eyes
where
the
wind
'd
mashed
the
veins
to
the
surface
.
"
Hey
you
,
Blondie
,
"
he
called
over
and
over
in
a
high
,
tired
voice
,
"
hey
you
,
Blondie
...
hey
you
,
Blondie
...
hey
you
,
Blondie
...
"
We
bunched
up
closer
together
against
the
wind
.

Tell
me
,
Blondie
,
what
've
they
got
you
committed
for
?
"
"
Ahr
,
she
ai
n't
committed
,
Perce
,
she
's
part
of
the
cure
!
"
"
Is
that
right
,
Blondie
?
You
hired
as
part
of
the
cure
?
Hey
you
,
Blondie
.
"
She
lifted
her
head
and
gave
us
a
look
that
asked
where
was
that
hard-boiled
bunch
she
'd
seen
and
why
were
n't
they
saying
something
to
defend
her
?
Nobody
would
answer
the
look
.
All
our
hard-boiled
strength
had
just
walked
up
those
steps
with
his
arm
around
the
shoulders
of
that
bald-headed
captain
.

She
pulled
the
collar
of
the
jacket
high
around
her
neck
and
hugged
her
elbows
and
strolled
as
far
away
from
us
down
the
dock
as
she
could
go
.
Nobody
went
after
her
.
Billy
Bibbit
shivered
in
the
cold
and
bit
his
lip
.
The
guys
at
the
bait
shack
whispered
something
else
and
whooped
out
laughing
again
.
"
Ask
'
er
,
Perce
--
go
on
.
"
"
Hey
,
Blondie
,
did
you
get
'
am
to
sign
a
waiver
clearing
you
with
proper
authorities
?
Relatives
could
sue
,
they
tell
me
,
if
one
of
the
boys
fell
in
and
drown
while
he
was
on
board
.
Did
you
ever
think
of
that
?
Maybe
you
'd
better
stay
here
with
us
,
Blondie
.
