That
night
,
after
lights
out
,
she
took
them
all
,
one
by
one
,
and
waited
.
The
feeling
,
when
it
came
,
was
delicious
—
a
kind
of
easy
sweetness
in
her
belly
and
a
loosening
in
the
tight
parts
of
her
body
.
She
kept
herself
awake
as
long
as
she
could
to
enjoy
the
warmth
inside
her
,
the
deep
chemical
happiness
.
On
Sunday
when
Mr
.
Shaibel
asked
where
she
had
been
,
she
was
surprised
that
he
cared
.
“
They
wouldn
’
t
let
me
out
of
class
,
”
she
said
.
He
nodded
.
The
chessboard
was
set
up
,
and
she
saw
to
her
surprise
that
the
white
pieces
were
facing
her
side
and
that
the
milk
crate
was
already
in
place
.
“
Do
I
move
first
?
”
she
said
,
incredulous
.
“
Yes
.
From
now
on
we
take
turns
.
It
’
s
the
way
the
game
should
be
played
.
”
She
seated
herself
and
moved
the
king
’
s
pawn
.
Mr
.
Shaibel
wordlessly
moved
his
queen
bishop
’
s
pawn
.
She
hadn
’
t
forgotten
the
moves
.
She
never
forgot
chess
moves
.
He
played
the
Levenfish
Variation
;
she
kept
her
eyes
on
his
bishop
’
s
command
of
the
long
diagonal
,
the
way
it
was
waiting
to
pounce
.
And
she
found
a
way
to
neutralize
it
on
the
seventeenth
move
.
She
was
able
to
trade
her
own
,
weaker
bishop
for
it
.
Then
she
moved
in
with
her
knight
,
brought
a
rook
out
,
and
had
him
mated
in
ten
more
moves
.
It
had
been
simple
—
merely
a
matter
of
keeping
her
eyes
open
and
visualizing
the
ways
the
game
could
go
.
The
checkmate
took
him
by
surprise
;
she
caught
the
king
on
the
back
rank
,
reaching
her
arm
all
the
way
across
the
board
and
setting
the
rook
crisply
on
the
mating
square
.
“
Mate
,
”
she
said
levelly
.
Mr
.
Shaibel
seemed
different
today
.
He
did
not
scowl
as
he
always
did
when
she
beat
him
.
He
leaned
forward
and
said
,
“
I
’
ll
teach
you
chess
notation
.
”
She
looked
up
at
him
.
