At
three
o
’
clock
two
players
from
the
tournament
came
into
the
bar
,
talking
quietly
.
Beth
got
up
and
went
straight
to
her
room
.
Mrs
.
Wheatley
was
lying
in
bed
.
She
had
a
hand
on
her
head
with
the
fingers
dug
into
her
hair
as
though
she
had
a
headache
.
Beth
walked
over
to
the
bed
.
Mrs
.
Wheatley
did
not
look
right
.
Beth
reached
out
and
took
her
by
the
arm
.
Mrs
.
Wheatley
was
dead
.
It
seemed
as
though
she
felt
nothing
,
but
five
minutes
passed
before
Beth
was
able
to
let
go
of
Mrs
.
Wheatley
’
s
cold
arm
and
pick
up
the
telephone
.
The
manager
knew
exactly
what
to
do
.
Beth
sat
in
the
armchair
drinking
café
con
leche
from
room
service
while
two
men
with
a
stretcher
came
and
the
manager
instructed
them
.
She
heard
him
,
but
she
did
not
watch
.
She
kept
her
eyes
on
the
window
.
Sometime
later
she
turned
to
see
a
middle
-
aged
woman
in
a
gray
suit
,
using
a
stethoscope
on
Mrs
.
Wheatley
.
Mrs
.
Wheatley
was
on
the
bed
and
the
stretcher
was
under
her
.
The
two
men
in
green
uniform
were
standing
at
the
edge
of
the
bed
,
looking
embarrassed
.
The
woman
took
off
her
stethoscope
,
nodded
to
the
manager
and
came
over
to
Beth
.
Her
face
was
strained
.
“
I
’
m
sorry
,
”
she
said
.
Beth
looked
away
from
her
.
“
What
was
it
?
”
“
Hepatitis
,
possibly
.
We
’
ll
know
tomorrow
.
”
“
Tomorrow
,
”
Beth
said
.
“
Could
you
give
me
a
tranquilizer
?
”
“
I
have
a
sedative
…
”
“
I
don
’
t
want
a
sedative
,
”
Beth
said
.
“
Can
you
give
me
a
prescription
for
Librium
?
”
The
doctor
stared
at
her
for
a
moment
and
shrugged
.
“
You
don
’
t
need
a
prescription
to
buy
Librium
in
Mexico
.
I
suggest
meprobamate
.
There
’
s
a
farmacia
in
the
hotel
.
