Beth
watched
her
and
said
nothing
.
She
felt
something
was
going
on
that
was
like
chess
.
In
chess
you
did
not
let
on
what
your
next
move
would
be
.
“
Your
behavior
has
come
as
a
profound
shock
to
all
of
us
.
Nothing
”
—
for
a
moment
the
muscles
at
the
sides
of
Deardorff
’
s
jaw
stood
out
like
steel
cables
—
“
nothing
in
the
history
of
the
Metheun
Home
has
been
so
deplorable
.
It
must
not
happen
again
.
”
Mr
.
Schell
spoke
up
.
“
We
are
terribly
disappointed
—
”
“
I
can
’
t
sleep
without
the
pills
,
”
Beth
said
.
There
was
a
startled
silence
.
No
one
had
expected
her
to
speak
.
Then
Mrs
.
Deardorff
said
,
“
All
the
more
reason
why
you
should
not
have
them
.
”
But
there
was
something
odd
in
her
voice
,
as
though
she
were
frightened
.
“
You
shouldn
’
t
have
given
them
to
us
in
the
first
place
,
”
Beth
said
.
“
I
will
not
have
back
talk
from
a
child
,
”
Mrs
.
Deardorff
said
.
She
stood
up
and
leaned
across
the
desk
toward
Beth
.
“
If
you
speak
to
me
like
that
again
,
you
will
regret
it
.
”
The
breath
caught
in
Beth
’
s
throat
.
Mrs
.
Deardorff
’
s
body
seemed
enormous
.
Beth
drew
back
as
though
she
had
touched
something
white
hot
.
Mrs
.
Deardorff
sat
down
and
adjusted
her
glasses
.
“
Your
library
and
playground
privileges
have
been
suspended
.
You
will
not
attend
the
Saturday
movies
and
you
will
be
in
bed
promptly
at
eight
o
’
clock
in
the
evenings
.
Do
you
understand
?
”
