“
Is
it
?
”
He
shrugged
.
“
The
Queen
’
s
Gambit
.
”
She
felt
better
.
She
had
learned
something
more
from
him
.
She
decided
not
to
take
the
offered
pawn
,
to
leave
the
tension
on
the
board
.
She
liked
it
like
that
.
She
liked
the
power
of
the
pieces
,
exerted
along
files
and
diagonals
.
In
the
middle
of
the
game
,
when
pieces
were
everywhere
,
the
forces
crisscrossing
the
board
thrilled
her
.
She
brought
out
her
king
’
s
knight
,
feeling
its
power
spread
.
In
twenty
moves
she
had
won
both
his
rooks
,
and
he
resigned
.
She
rolled
over
in
bed
,
put
a
pillow
over
her
head
to
block
out
the
light
from
under
the
corridor
door
and
began
to
think
how
you
could
use
a
bishop
and
a
rook
together
to
make
a
sudden
check
on
the
king
.
If
you
moved
the
bishop
,
the
king
would
be
in
check
,
and
the
bishop
would
be
free
to
do
whatever
it
wanted
to
on
the
next
move
—
even
take
the
queen
.
She
lay
there
for
quite
a
while
,
thinking
excitedly
of
this
powerful
attack
.
Then
she
took
the
pillow
off
and
rolled
over
on
her
back
and
made
the
chessboard
on
the
ceiling
and
played
over
all
her
games
with
Mr
.
Shaibel
,
one
at
a
time
.
She
saw
two
places
where
she
might
have
created
the
rook
-
bishop
situation
she
had
just
invented
.
In
one
of
them
she
could
have
forced
it
by
a
double
threat
,
and
in
the
other
she
could
probably
have
sneaked
it
in
.
She
replayed
those
two
games
in
her
mind
with
the
new
moves
,
and
won
them
both
.
She
smiled
happily
to
herself
and
fell
asleep
.

The
Arithmetic
teacher
gave
the
eraser
cleaning
to
another
student
,
saying
that
Beth
needed
a
rest
.
It
wasn
’
t
fair
,
because
Beth
still
had
perfect
grades
in
Arithmetic
,
but
there
was
nothing
she
could
do
about
it
.
She
sat
in
class
when
the
little
red
-
haired
boy
went
out
of
the
room
each
day
with
the
erasers
,
doing
her
meaningless
additions
and
subtractions
with
a
trembling
hand
.
She
wanted
to
play
chess
more
desperately
every
day
.
On
Tuesday
and
Wednesday
she
took
only
one
pill
and
saved
the
other
.
On
Thursday
she
was
able
to
go
to
sleep
after
playing
chess
in
her
mind
for
an
hour
or
so
,
and
she
saved
the
day
’
s
two
pills
.
She
did
the
same
thing
on
Friday
.
All
day
Saturday
,
doing
her
work
in
the
cafeteria
kitchen
and
in
the
afternoon
during
the
Christian
movie
in
the
library
and
the
Personal
Improvement
Talk
before
dinner
,
she
could
feel
a
little
glow
whenever
she
wanted
to
,
knowing
that
she
had
six
pills
in
her
toothbrush
holder
.
