Chapter 33: Conlon

I stood up out of the chair.

Nobody stopped me.

I walked to the window and tried the latch in front of all three of them.

It didn't move.

Somebody had screwed it shut, and painted over the screws.

"They're all like that, love," Conlon said. "Sit down before you fall down."

I didn't sit.

"Why did she run?"

He looked at the photo on the mantel.

His face went soft.

"She was nineteen when she walked into my bar," he said. "I was past thirty and should have known better."

"She sat at the end, right where you stood, and put her hands flat on the rail, and I was gone."

"That's not why she ran."

"No." He turned his cap in his hands.

"There was a man who drank in the back. He put his hand up her skirt one night when she went past with a tray."

The fire ticked.

"So I took him into the back room," Conlon said, "and I kicked his head until it went soft."

"She came in looking for me, and she saw."

He said it.

"She was carrying you by then. She was gone in the morning, and I never found her."
