"
God
can
take
it
back
if
He
wants
to
,
"
Ellie
said
.
"
He
can
do
anything
He
wants
to
.
"
"
Ellie
,
God
does
n't
do
things
like
that
,
"
Louis
said
uneasily
,
and
in
his
mind
's
eye
he
saw
Church
squatting
on
the
closed
lid
of
the
toilet
,
staring
at
him
with
those
muddy
eyes
as
Louis
lay
in
the
tub
.
"
He
does
so
,
"
she
said
.
"
In
Sunday
School
the
teacher
told
us
about
this
guy
Lazarus
.
He
was
dead
,
and
Jesus
brought
him
back
to
life
.
He
said
"
Lazarus
,
come
forth
,
"
and
the
teacher
said
if
he
'd
just
said
"
Come
forth
,
"
probably
everybody
in
that
graveyard
would
have
come
out
,
and
Jesus
only
wanted
Lazarus
.

An
absurdity
popped
out
of
his
mouth
(
but
the
day
had
sung
and
gibbered
with
absurdity
)
:
"
That
was
a
long
time
ago
,
Ellie
.
"
"
I
'm
going
to
keep
things
ready
for
him
,
"
she
said
.
"
I
've
got
his
picture
,
and
I
'm
going
to
sit
in
his
chair
--
"
"
Ellie
,
you
're
too
big
for
Gage
's
chair
,
"
Louis
said
,
taking
her
hot
,
feverish
hand
.
"
You
'll
break
it
.
"
"
God
will
help
it
not
to
break
,
"
Ellie
said
.
Her
voice
was
serene
,
but
Louis
observed
the
brown
half-moons
under
her
eyes
.
Looking
at
her
made
his
heart
ache
so
badly
that
he
turned
away
from
her
.
Maybe
when
Gage
's
chair
broke
,
she
would
begin
to
understand
what
had
happened
a
little
better
.

"
I
'm
going
to
carry
the
picture
and
sit
in
his
chair
,
"
she
said
.
"
I
'm
going
to
eat
his
breakfast
too
.
"
Gage
and
Ellie
had
each
had
their
own
breakfast
cereals
;
Gage
's
,
Ellie
had
once
claimed
,
tasted
like
dead
boogers
.
If
Cocoa
Bears
was
the
only
cereal
in
the
house
,
Ellie
would
sometimes
eat
a
boiled
egg
...
or
nothing
at
all
.
"
I
'll
eat
lima
beans
even
though
I
hate
them
,
and
I
'll
read
all
of
Gage
's
picturebooks
and
I
'll
...
I
'll
...
you
know
...
get
things
ready
...
in
case
...
"
She
was
crying
now
.
Louis
did
not
try
to
comfort
her
but
only
brushed
her
hair
back
from
her
forehead
.
What
she
was
talking
about
made
a
certain
crazed
sense
.
Keeping
the
lines
open
.
Keeping
things
current
.
Keeping
Gage
in
the
present
,
in
the
Hot
One
Hundred
,
refusing
to
let
him
recede
;
remember
when
Gage
did
this
...
or
that
...
yeah
,
that
was
great
...
good
old
Gage
,
wotta
kid
.
When
it
started
not
to
hurt
,
it
started
not
to
matter
.
She
understood
,
perhaps
,
Louis
thought
,
how
easy
it
would
be
to
let
Gage
be
dead
.
