Chapter 20

Donald watched a light rain fall until darkness settled in, obscuring his view of the garden. He clicked on the electric banker’s lamp. Jennifer had finished her bath and gone upstairs a few minutes before, so it felt safe to venture out. He returned to the steamy bathroom to retrieve his wet shirt from the towel rack.

Jennifer’s wet stockings—she’d washed them in the sink as Donald had done with his shirt—hung from the same rack. As carefully as possible, he removed his shirt, but one of the stockings fell to the floor. He was just returning it to the bar when Jake peeked in.

“Not your size, pal,” Jake said. “Besides, they look better on the ladies.”

Donald laughed. Sometimes that was all you could do.

“This poultice is dry enough for me to put on a shirt now. Should we try to move Elton?”

“That’s why I came to get you. Let’s put him in our room.”

“Where will you sleep?”

Jake rolled his eyes to the ceiling. “Oh, I’ll find someplace.”
