Later, when they felt better, Ted indicated the oddly shaped key.
âLook close,â he said.
Dorothy picked it up and turned it around, holding it near her face. It was neither a house nor a car key. She thought she recognized it. Yes! Safety deposit box.
âHold it at an angle to the light,â suggested Ted.
Doing so, Dorothy squinted, and catching a stray glance of reflected sunlight saw small scratches on the metal surface, regular little lines, like runes or Chinese characters.
âRoman numerals,â said Ted.
âReally?â asked Dorothy.
âOne of Irinaâs little tricks. She had a lousy memory for numbers. I remember her showing me how sheâd scratched her locker combination in Roman numerals.â
âWhat does it say?â
âLV. Then: MMCDXXVI. Then: VIII.â
âAnd whatâs it supposed to mean?â asked Dorothy.
Ted smiled and made a quizzical face, then shook his head and laughed. âStick with me, and weâll try to find out. If for no other reason than to spite that cop. Sure youâre with me?â
Again, Dorothy was astonished to hear her own voice.
âYou know, I guess I really am,â she said.
