“Yes.” “I wouldn’t have come at all,” he stammered. I was afraid too. Afraid and unprepared. I glanced up. The sky was rapidly dimming. “Damn y’er eyes!” Before Duncan could react, Morris moved with lightning speed, shouldering Larkin aside and slamming his fist into Duncan’s belly. “We know the bastards’ tricks! If they can’t beat it out of us they try to scare it out of us!” As Duncan staggered, two others seized his arms to hold him for his assailant. The furious sergeant had landed a third blow before Duncan was able to summon his strength, bracing against the men who held him and landing a kick on Morris’s belly that sent him reeling backward. Sounds like a good idea. A hawk-fly had buzzed in my ear. Its buzz proved that day existed. I laughed as I climbed out.‘Thanks for the lift, Dessie.’ I swung the door shut and patted the muddy roof. Off you pop now, like a good chap. He shuddered.“Get out of here!” a voice cried within him. “Now! Immediately!” But Murdo’s rage blinded him. He charged. The Irishman sidestepped and slammed the cudgel behind his ear. Murdo dropped with a groan then looked up, dazed, as Teague kicked him in the belly, knocking the wind out of him. The Irishman lifted Murdo’s torso into a sitting position and, holding him up with one hand, began pummeling him with the other. Duncan struggled to his knees and began crawling toward his friend but Sarah pushed him down and began dragging him away. “Not for me to say. I gave a vow.” You must be hungry, says my aunt. “Just two or three days, Duncan.” Sarah pushed a finger through the hole. With a trembling hand Duncan touched it. Then she was gone. “Hate to hear you couldn’t work it out.” I waited for the pulse of Jude’s speech to pass and then I walked out onto the stage with my ass-length platinum hair and fiery cobalt eyes, in five-inch coral heels. I stalked up to that podium like I was going to do the salsa with it. I pulled on that microphone until it reached my lips and I touched the off-center white bull’s-eye inside the faux tattoo on my cheek. My nostrils flared and the chill of the room braced my black skin. Whenever I moved I heard the white satin slide against my body, and I was home — if only for a moment. I lean my head on a bag stuffed with bed linen and spread Hei?ur’s down jacket over me. Yes, this will end with someone being killed. Maybe it’ll be me. But I’m supposed to survive until then, thank you very much. “I figured,” she said, “what with the clouds and the tangerines.”.
