"
I
think
so
,
"
he
said
.
His
voice
was
not
quite
steady
.
"
Let
's
see
if
you
taste
as
good
as
you
look
,
"
she
said
.
The
sex
was
good
,
but
Louis
did
not
find
himself
simply
slipping
off
afterward
as
he
usually
did
--
when
the
sex
was
good
--
slipping
off
easy
with
himself
,
his
wife
,
his
life
.
He
lay
in
the
darkness
of
Christmas
morning
,
listening
to
Rachel
's
breathing
slow
and
deep
,
and
he
thought
about
the
dead
bird
on
the
doorstep
--
Church
's
Christmas
present
to
him
.
Keep
me
in
mind
,
Dr.
Creed
.
I
was
alive
and
then
I
was
dead
and
now
I
'm
alive
again
.
I
've
made
the
circuit
and
I
'm
here
to
tell
you
that
you
come
out
the
other
side
with
your
purr-box
broken
and
a
taste
for
the
hunt
,
I
'm
here
to
tell
you
that
a
man
grows
what
he
can
and
tends
it
.
Do
n't
forget
that
,
Dr.
Creed
,
I
'm
part
of
what
your
heart
will
grow
now
,
there
's
your
wife
and
your
daughter
and
your
son
...
and
there
's
me
.
Remember
the
secret
and
tend
your
garden
well
.
At
some
point
Louis
slept
.
Their
winter
passed
.
Ellie
's
faith
in
Santa
Claus
was
restored
--
temporarily
at
least
--
by
the
footprints
in
the
hearth
.
Gage
opened
his
presents
splendidly
,
pausing
every
now
and
then
to
munch
a
particularly
tasty-looking
piece
of
wrapping
paper
.
And
that
year
,
both
kids
had
decided
by
midafternoon
that
the
boxes
were
more
fun
than
the
toys
.
The
Crandalls
came
over
on
New
Year
's
Eve
for
Rachel
's
eggnog
,
and
Louis
found
himself
mentally
examining
Norma
.
She
had
a
pale
and
somehow
transparent
look
that
he
had
seen
before
.
His
grandmother
would
have
said
Norma
was
beginning
to
"
fail
,
"
and
that
was
perhaps
not
such
a
bad
word
for
it
.
All
at
once
her
hands
,
so
swollen
and
misshapen
by
arthritis
seemed
covered
with
liver
spots
.
Her
hair
looked
thinner
.
The
Crandalls
went
home
around
ten
,
and
the
Creeds
saw
the
New
Year
in
together
in
front
of
the
TV
.
It
was
the
last
time
Norma
was
in
their
house
.
Most
of
Louis
's
semester
break
was
sloppy
and
rainy
.
In
terms
of
heating
costs
,
he
was
grateful
for
the
thaw
,
but
the
weather
was
still
depressing
and
dismal
.
He
worked
around
the
house
,
building
bookshelves
and
cupboards
for
his
wife
,
and
a
model
Porsche
in
his
study
for
himself
.
By
the
time
classes
resumed
on
January
23
,
Louis
was
happy
to
go
back
to
the
university
.
The
flu
finally
arrived
--
a
fairly
serious
outbreak
struck
the
campus
less
than
a
week
after
the
spring
semester
had
begun
,
and
he
had
his
hands
full
--
he
found
himself
working
ten
and
sometimes
twelve
hours
a
day
and
going
home
utterly
whipped
...
but
not
really
unhappy
.
