“I WON’T!” I screamed, night after night after night. I jumped up and down on the sofa, bouncing as high as I could, screaming, “I WON’T! I WON’T!”

“Dad—” said Harriet, clinging to Jim’s hand like the little kid she was.

“Make her stop before she wakes the baby,” said Grace.

Jim sighed and pulled his hand down his face, stretching the skin so he looked old and tired. “Better in a family with kids, eh?” he said. “I hope you know what you’re talking about, Liz Bishop.”

He said it under his breath, like he thought I couldn’t hear him. He didn’t know about my supersonic hearing. My stomach clenched so tight I thought I was going to be sick. Liz never looked tired, or like she couldn’t cope; it was one of the best things about her.

He doesn’t want me. I knew he didn’t.

I spat right in his face.

If I scream loud enough, he can’t leave me.
