“
Jolene
,
”
she
said
.
“
I
can
’
t
find
my
book
.
”
“
What
book
?
”
Jolene
said
sleepily
.
It
was
just
before
lights
out
.
“
Modern
Chess
Openings
,
with
a
red
cover
.
I
keep
it
in
my
nightstand
.
”
Jolene
shook
her
head
.
“
Beats
the
shit
out
of
me
.
”
Beth
hadn
’
t
looked
at
the
book
for
weeks
,
but
she
clearly
remembered
putting
it
at
the
bottom
of
the
second
drawer
.
She
had
a
brown
nylon
valise
beside
her
on
the
bed
;
it
was
packed
with
her
three
dresses
and
four
sets
of
underwear
,
her
toothbrush
,
comb
,
a
bar
of
Dial
soap
,
two
barrettes
and
some
plain
cotton
handkerchiefs
.
Her
nightstand
was
now
completely
empty
.
She
had
looked
in
the
library
for
her
book
,
but
it
wasn
’
t
there
.
There
was
nowhere
else
to
look
.
She
had
not
played
a
game
of
chess
in
three
years
except
in
her
mind
,
but
Modern
Chess
Openings
was
the
only
thing
she
owned
that
she
cared
about
.
She
squinted
at
Jolene
.
“
You
didn
’
t
see
it
,
did
you
?
”
Jolene
looked
angry
for
a
moment
.
“
Watch
who
you
go
accusing
,
”
she
said
.
“
I
got
no
use
for
a
book
like
that
.
”
Then
her
voice
softened
.
“
I
hear
you
’
re
leaving
.
”
“
That
’
s
right
.
”
