While I’m doing my homework, Mom gets a phone

call. She covers her face and turns away.

Mom hangs up and looks at me. “Malcolm . . .” Her

eyes are wet. She can’t talk for a minute. “Someone shot

him when he stood up to give his speech.”

I can’t breathe.

Mom opens her arms. I run to her.

“Don’t worry,” she says, “Your

father is coming home.”

In. Out. I am breathing again.

Later I hear Dad’s key in the door. He

hugs Mom and me and sags into his chair.

He takes off his glasses and cleans them.
