"
They

’
s
supposed
to
check
her
messages
regularly

He
thought
about
it
.
"
I
don
’
t
think
there
’
s
any
way
it
could
hurt
-
be
sure
you
don
’
t
say
where
you
are
,
of
course
.
"
I
reached
eagerly
for
the
phone
and
dialed
the
familiar
number
.
It
rang
four
times
,
and
then
I
heard
my
mom
’
s
breezy
voice
telling
me
to
leave
a
message
.
"
Mom
,
"
I
said
after
the
beep
,
"
it
’
s
me
.
Listen
,
I
need
you
to
do
something
It
’
s
important
.
As
soon
as
you
get
this
message
,
call
me
at
this
number
.
"
Alice
was
already
at
my
side
,
writing
the
number
for
me
on
the
bottom
of
her
picture
.
I
read
it
carefully
,
twice
.
"
Please
don
’
t
go
anywhere
until
you
talk
to
me
.
Don
’
t
worry
,
I
’
m
okay
,
but
I
have
to
talk
to
you
right
away
,
no
matter
how
late
you
get
this
call
,
all
right
?
I
love
you
,
Mom
.
Bye
.
"
I
closed
my
eyes
and
prayed
with
all
my
might
that
no
unforeseen
change
of
plans
would
bring
her
home
before
she
got
my
message
.

I
settled
into
the
sofa
,
nibbling
on
a
plate
of
leftover
fruit
,
anticipating
a
long
evening
.
I
thought
about
calling
Charlie
,
but
I
wasn
’
t
sure
if
I
should
be
home
by
now
or
not
.
I
concentrated
on
the
news
,
watching
out
for
stories
about
Florida
,
or
about
spring
training
-
strikes
or
hurricanes
or
terrorist
attacks
-
anything
that
might
send
them
home
early
.
Immortality
must
grant
endless
patience
.
Neither
Jasper
nor
Alice
seemed
to
feel
the
need
to
do
anything
at
all
.
For
a
while
,
Alice
sketched
the
vague
outline
of
the
dark
room
from
her
vision
,
as
much
as
she
could
see
in
the
light
from
the
TV
.
But
when
she
was
done
,
she
simply
sat
,
looking
at
the
blank
walls
with
her
timeless
eyes
.
Jasper
,
too
,
seemed
to
have
no
urge
to
pace
,
or
peek
through
the
curtains
,
or
run
screaming
out
the
door
,
the
way
I
did
.
