A
grandfather
clause
,
I
thought
.
And
what
place
was
more
fitted
for
one
than
an
old-age
home
?
She
reached
into
the
pocket
of
her
blue-and-white-striped
dress
and
pulled
two
items
partway
out
:
a
cigarette
and
a
book
of
matches
.
"
Thief
of
green
,
thief
red
,
"
she
sang
in
a
lilting
,
funny
voice
.
"
Little
Ellie
's
going
to
wet
the
bed
.
"
"
Elaine
,
what
--
"
"
Walk
an
old
girl
downstairs
,
"
she
said
,
putting
the
cigarette
and
matches
back
into
her
pocket
and
taking
my
arm
in
one
of
her
gnarled
hands
.
We
began
to
walk
back
down
the
hall
.
As
we
did
,
I
decided
to
give
up
and
put
myself
in
her
hands
.
She
was
old
and
brittle
,
but
not
stupid
.
As
we
went
down
,
walking
with
the
glassy
care
of
the
relics
we
have
now
become
,
Elaine
said
:
"
Wait
at
the
foot
.
I
'm
going
over
to
the
west
wing
,
to
the
hall
toilet
there
.
You
know
the
one
I
mean
,
do
n't
you
?
"
"
Yes
,
"
I
said
.
"
The
one
just
outside
the
spa
.
But
why
?
"
"
I
have
n't
had
a
cigarette
in
over
fifteen
years
,
"
she
said
,
"
but
I
feel
like
one
this
morning
.
I
do
n't
know
how
many
puffs
it
'll
take
to
set
off
the
smoke
detector
in
there
,
but
I
intend
to
find
out
.
"
I
looked
at
her
with
dawning
admiration
,
thinking
how
much
she
reminded
me
of
my
wife
--
Jan
might
have
done
exactly
the
same
thing
.
Elaine
looked
back
at
me
,
smiling
her
saucy
imp
's
smile
.
I
cupped
my
hand
around
the
back
of
her
lovely
long
neck
,
drew
her
face
to
mine
,
and
kissed
her
mouth
lightly
.
"
I
love
you
,
Ellie
,
"
I
said
.
"
Oooh
,
such
big
talk
,
"
she
said
,
but
I
could
tell
she
was
pleased
.
