One
of
the
men
must
have
opened
the
furnace
door
,
the
fire
now
was
visible
.
And
then
she
was
alone
with
Brasi
in
that
basement
with
its
sweating
pipes
,
its
mousy
odor
.
Brasi
had
his
knife
out
again
.
And
there
could
be
no
doubting
that
he
would
kill
her
.
There
were
the
flames
,
there
were
Brasi
's
eyes
.
His
face
was
the
gargoyle
of
the
devil
,
it
was
not
human
,
it
was
not
sane
:
He
pushed
her
toward
the
open
furnace
door
.
At
this
point
Filomena
fell
silent
.
She
folded
her
bony
hands
in
her
lap
and
looked
directly
at
Michael
.
He
knew
what
she
wanted
,
how
she
wanted
to
tell
him
,
without
using
her
voice
.
He
asked
gently
,
"
Did
you
do
it
?
"
She
nodded
.
It
was
only
after
another
glass
of
wine
and
crossing
herself
and
muttering
a
prayer
that
she
continued
her
story
.
She
was
given
a
bundle
of
money
and
driven
home
.
She
understood
that
if
she
uttered
a
word
about
what
had
happened
she
would
be
killed
.
But
two
days
later
Brasi
murdered
the
young
Irish
girl
,
the
mother
of
the
infant
,
and
was
arrested
by
the
police
.
Filomena
,
frightened
out
of
her
wits
,
went
to
the
Godfather
and
told
her
story
.
He
ordered
her
to
keep
silent
,
that
he
would
attend
to
everything
.
At
that
time
Brasi
did
not
work
for
Don
Corleone
.

Before
Don
Corleone
could
set
matters
aright
,
Luca
Brasi
tried
to
commit
suicide
in
his
cell
,
hacking
at
his
throat
with
a
piece
of
glass
.
He
was
transferred
to
the
prison
hospital
and
by
the
time
he
recovered
Don
Corleone
had
arranged
everything
.
The
police
did
not
have
a
case
they
could
prove
in
court
and
Luca
Brasi
was
released
.
Though
Don
Corleone
assured
Filomena
that
she
had
nothing
to
fear
from
either
Luca
Brasi
or
the
police
,
she
had
no
peace
.
Her
nerves
were
shattered
and
she
could
no
longer
work
at
her
profession
.
Finally
she
persuaded
her
husband
to
sell
the
grocery
store
and
they
returned
to
Italy
.
Her
husband
was
a
good
man
,
had
been
told
everything
and
understood
.
But
he
was
a
weak
man
and
in
Italy
squandered
the
fortune
they
had
both
slaved
in
America
to
earn
.
And
so
after
he
died
she
had
become
a
servant
.
So
Filomena
ended
her
story
.
She
had
another
glass
of
wine
and
said
to
Michael
,
"
I
bless
the
name
of
your
father
.
He
always
sent
me
money
when
I
asked
,
he
saved
me
from
Brasi
.
Tell
him
I
say
a
prayer
for
his
soul
every
night
and
that
he
should
n't
fear
dying
.
"
After
she
had
left
,
Michael
asked
Don
Tommasino
,
"
Is
her
story
true
?
"
The
capo-mafioso
nodded
.
And
Michael
thought
,
no
wonder
nobody
wanted
to
tell
him
the
story
.
Some
story
.
Some
Luca
.
The
next
morning
Michael
wanted
to
discuss
the
whole
thug
with
Don
Tommasino
but
learned
that
the
old
man
had
been
called
to
Palermo
by
an
urgent
message
delivered
by
a
courier
.
That
evening
Don
Tommasino
returned
and
took
Michael
aside
.
News
had
come
from
America
,
he
said
.
News
that
it
grieved
him
to
tell

Santino
Corleone
had
been
killed
.
The
Sicilian
sun
,
early-morning
lemon-colored
,
filled
Michael
's
bedroom
.
He
awoke
and
,
feeling
Apollonia
's
satiny
body
against
his
own
sleep-warm
skin
,
made
her
come
awake
with
love
.
When
they
were
done
,
even
all
the
months
of
complete
possession
could
not
stop
him
from
marveling
at
her
beauty
and
her
passion
.
She
left
the
bedroom
to
wash
and
dress
in
the
bathroom
down
the
hall
.
Michael
,
still
naked
,
the
morning
sun
refreshing
his
body
,
lit
a
cigarette
and
relaxed
on
the
bed
.
This
was
the
last
morning
they
would
spend
in
this
house
and
the
villa
.
Don
Tommasino
had
arranged
for
him
to
be
transferred
to
another
town
on
the
southern
coast
of
Sicily
.
Apollonia
,
in
the
first
month
of
pregnancy
,
wanted
to
visit
with
her
family
for
a
few
weeks
and
would
join
him
at
the
new
hiding
place
after
the
visit
.
