He
shifted
uneasily
in
his
bed
,
his
eyes
searching
out
the
comforting
glow
of
the
night
light
.
Things
were
worse
here
.
He
knew
that
much
for
sure
.
At
first
they
hadn
’
t
been
so
bad
,
but
little
by
little
…
his
daddy
thought
about
drinking
a
lot
more
.
Sometimes
he
was
angry
at
Mommy
and
didn
’
t
know
why
.
He
went
around
wiping
his
lips
with
his
handkerchief
and
his
eyes
were
far
away
and
cloudy
.
Mommy
was
worried
about
him
and
Danny
,
too
.
He
didn
’
t
have
to
shine
into
her
to
know
that
;
it
had
been
in
the
anxious
way
she
had
questioned
him
on
the
day
the
fire
hose
had
seemed
to
turn
into
a
snake
.
Mr
.
Hallorann
said
he
thought
all
mothers
could
shine
a
little
bit
,
and
she
had
known
on
that
day
that
something
had
happened
.
But
not
what
.
He
had
almost
told
her
,
but
a
couple
of
things
had
held
him
back
.
He
knew
that
the
doctor
in
Sidewinder
had
dismissed
Tony
and
the
things
that
Tony
showed
him
as
perfectly

(
well
almost
)
normal
.
His
mother
might
not
believe
him
if
he
told
her
about
the
hose
.
Worse
,
she
might
believe
him
in
the
wrong
way
,
might
think
he
was
LOSING
HIS
MARBLES
.
He
understood
a
little
about
LOSING
YOUR
MARBLES
,
not
as
much
as
he
did
about
GETTING
A
BABY
,
which
his
mommy
had
explained
to
him
the
year
before
at
some
length
,
but
enough
.
Once
,
at
nursery
school
,
his
friend
Scott
had
pointed
out
a
boy
named
Robin
Stenger
,
who
was
moping
around
the
swings
with
a
face
almost
long
enough
to
step
on
.
Robin
’
s
father
taught
arithmetic
at
Daddy
’
s
school
,
and
Scott
’
s
daddy
taught
history
there
.
Most
of
the
kids
at
the
nursery
school
were
associated
either
with
Stovington
Prep
or
with
the
small
IBM
plant
just
outside
of
town
.
The
prep
kids
chummed
in
one
group
,
the
IBM
kids
in
another
.
There
were
crossfriendships
,
of
course
,
but
it
was
natural
enough
for
the
kids
whose
fathers
knew
each
other
to
more
or
less
stick
together
.
When
there
was
an
adult
scandal
in
one
group
,
it
almost
always
filtered
down
to
the
children
in
some
wildly
mutated
form
or
other
,
but
it
rarely
jumped
to
the
other
group
.
He
and
Scotty
were
sitting
in
the
play
rocketship
when
Scotty
jerked
his
thumb
at
Robin
and
said
:
"
You
know
that
kid
?
"

"
Yeah
,
"
Danny
said
.
Scott
leaned
forward
.
"
His
dad
LOST
HIS
MARBLES
last
night
.
They
took
him
away
.
"
"
Yeah
?
Just
for
losing
some
marbles
?
