She
hadn
’
t
told
anyone
.
Not
even
Jolene
.
She
lay
in
bed
after
lights
out
and
thought
about
it
with
an
expectant
quiver
in
her
stomach
.
Could
she
play
that
many
games
?
She
rolled
over
on
her
back
and
nervously
felt
the
pocket
of
her
pajamas
.
There
were
two
in
there
.
It
was
six
days
until
Thursday
.
Maybe
Mr
.
Ganz
meant
she
would
play
one
game
with
one
person
and
then
one
game
with
another
,
if
that
was
how
you
did
it
.
She
had
looked
up
“
phenomenal
.
”
The
dictionary
said
:
“
extraordinary
;
outstanding
;
remarkable
.
”
She
repeated
these
words
silently
to
herself
now
:
“
extraordinary
;
outstanding
;
remarkable
.
”
They
became
a
tune
in
her
mind
.
She
tried
to
picture
twelve
chessboards
at
once
,
spread
out
in
a
row
on
the
ceiling
.
Only
four
or
five
were
really
clear
.
She
took
the
black
pieces
for
herself
and
assigned
the
whites
to
“
them
”
and
then
had
“
them
”
move
pawn
to
king
four
,
and
she
responded
with
the
Sicilian
.
She
found
she
could
keep
five
games
going
and
concentrate
on
one
at
a
time
while
the
other
four
waited
for
her
attention
.
From
out
at
the
desk
down
the
corridor
she
heard
a
voice
say
,
“
What
time
is
it
now
?
”
and
another
voice
reply
,
“
It
’
s
two
-
twenty
.
”
Mother
used
to
talk
about
the
“
wee
,
small
hours
.
”
This
was
one
of
them
.
Beth
kept
playing
chess
,
keeping
five
imaginary
games
going
at
once
.
She
had
forgotten
about
the
pills
in
her
pocket
.
The
next
morning
Mr
.
Fergussen
handed
her
the
little
paper
cup
as
usual
but
when
she
looked
down
into
it
there
were
two
orange
vitamin
tablets
and
nothing
else
.
She
looked
back
up
at
him
,
behind
the
little
window
of
the
pharmacy
.
“
That
’
s
it
,
”
he
said
.
“
Next
.
”
She
didn
’
t
move
,
even
though
the
girl
behind
her
was
pushing
against
her
.
“
Where
are
the
green
ones
?
”
“
You
don
’
t
get
them
anymore
,
”
Mr
.
Fergussen
said
.
Beth
stood
on
tiptoe
and
looked
over
the
counter
.
There
,
behind
Mr
.
Fergussen
,
stood
the
big
glass
jar
,
still
a
third
full
of
green
pills
.
There
must
have
been
hundreds
of
them
in
there
,
like
tiny
jellybeans
.
“
There
they
are
,
”
she
said
and
pointed
.
