When Simon returned two days later, he was a little late to arrive. Inga Hermansson had come to find Simon out in the field where he was working; she was all keyed up.

‘A member of the jury called. He wondered if you and I would be home this evening. We will be, right?’

‘I just have to run an errand in town, but I’ll be home by dinnertime.’

‘Do you suppose…’ she said.

‘I guess we’ll see.’

When Simon opened the gate to the manor, something seemed off. Everything was quiet and still. Not a single sound was coming from within the walls. He got held up, Simon thought. Something happened. They caught him out. But he opened the gate and slipped in anyway.

There they stood before him, as stiff as statues. Jacob with his mouth agape and Anna with a backpack slung over one shoulder, eyes wide. The beginning of a sound, a cry, came from her mouth when she saw Simon, but Jacob shook his head in warning.

‘I can’t stand it anymore,’ Anna whispered.

Simon could see in her eyes that she truly meant it.
