When
Beth
came
into
the
living
room
just
before
supper
,
Mrs
.
Wheatley
looked
pale
and
strange
.
She
was
sitting
in
the
chintz
armchair
and
her
face
was
puffy
.
She
was
holding
a
brightly
colored
postcard
in
her
lap
.
“
I
’
ve
started
menstruating
,
”
Beth
said
.
Mrs
.
Wheatley
blinked
.
“
That
’
s
nice
,
”
she
said
,
as
though
from
a
great
distance
.
“
I
’
ll
need
some
pads
or
something
,
”
Beth
said
.
Mrs
.
Wheatley
seemed
nonplused
for
a
moment
.
Then
she
brightened
.
“
That
’
s
certainly
a
milepost
for
you
.
Why
don
’
t
you
just
go
up
to
my
room
and
look
in
the
top
drawer
of
my
chiffonier
?
Take
all
you
require
.
”
“
Thank
you
,
”
Beth
said
,
heading
for
the
stairs
.
“
And
,
dear
,
”
Mrs
.
Wheatley
said
,
“
bring
down
that
little
bottle
of
green
pills
by
my
bedside
.
”
When
Beth
came
back
she
gave
the
pills
to
Mrs
.
Wheatley
.
Mrs
.
Wheatley
had
half
a
glass
of
beer
sitting
beside
her
;
she
took
out
two
of
the
pills
and
swallowed
them
with
the
beer
.
“
My
tranquility
needs
to
be
refurbished
,
”
she
said
.
“
Is
something
wrong
?
”
Beth
asked
.
