She
looked
back
at
him
.
“
I
wish
you
could
,
”
she
said
levelly
.
“
You
’
re
too
sharp
for
me
.
”
She
could
see
the
hurt
underneath
his
anger
,
and
she
softened
.
“
I
miss
them
too
,
sometimes
,
”
she
said

He
shook

On
Saturday
she
started
playing
him
with
odds
of
a
knight
.
He
tried
to
act
casual
about
it
,
but
she
could
see
that
he
hated
it
.
There
was
no
other
way
for
them
to
have
a
real
game
.
Even
with
the
odds
and
with
his
playing
the
white
pieces
she
beat
him
the
first
two
and
drew
the
third
.
That
night
he
did
not
come
to
her
bed
,
nor
did
he
the
next
.
She
did
not
miss
the
sex
,
which
meant
very
little
to
her
,
but
she
missed
something
.
On
the
second
night
she
had
some
difficulty
going
to
sleep
and
found
herself
getting
up
at
two
in
the
morning
.

She
went
to
the
refrigerator
and
got
out
one
of
Mrs
.
Wheatley
’
s
cans
of
beer
.
Then
she
sat
down
at
the
chessboard
and
began
idly
moving
the
pieces
around
,
sipping
from
the
can
.
She
played
over
some
Queen
’
s
Gambit
games
:
Alekhine
—
Yates
;
Tarrasch
—
von
Scheve
;
Lasker
—
Tarrasch
.
The
first
of
these
was
one
she
had
memorized
years
before
at
Morris
’
s
Book
Store
;
the
other
two
she
had
analyzed
with
Beltik
during
their
first
week
together
.
In
the
last
there
was
a
beautiful
pawn
to
Queen
’
s
rook
four
on
the
fifteenth
move
,
as
sweetly
deadly
as
a
pawn
move
could
be
.
She
left
it
on
the
board
for
the
time
it
took
to
drink
two
beers
,
just
looking
at
it
.
It
was
a
warm
night
and
the
kitchen
window
was
open
;
moths
battered
at
the
screen
and
somewhere
far
away
a
dog
was
barking
.
She
sat
at
the
table
wearing
Mrs
.
Wheatley
’
s
pink
chenille
robe
and
drinking
Mrs
.
Wheatley
’
s
beer
,
feeling
relaxed
and
easy
in
herself
.
She
was
glad
to
be
alone
.
There
were
three
more
beers
in
the
refrigerator
,
and
she
finished
all
of
them
.
Then
she
went
back
up
to
bed
and
slept
soundly
until
nine
in
the
morning
.

On
Monday
at
breakfast
he
said
,
“
Look
,
I
’
ve
taught
you
everything
I
know
.
