Chapter 13: What the Hospital Was
For a moment the only sound in the dining room was the baby, banging her rubber spoon on the tray.
Davin put both hands flat on the tablecloth and laughed.
It was a short laugh, and it came out wrong.
"Okay," he said. "Okay. Let's everybody breathe."
He looked around the table the way he looked around a room full of customers.
"He's panicking, Mutti. Can you blame him? Martha plays a tape at dinner, and my brother hears his own voice."
"It isn't my voice," Jonas said.
"We have one voice. We've always had one voice. You know that. Martha knows that."
He turned his smile on me, wide and sorry.
"Little sister, you've said it yourself. You can't tell us apart on the phone."
I had said it.
I had said it to him, laughing, at Easter, with a plate of ham in my hand.
My stomach went cold.
"He's protecting himself," Davin said gently, to the table. "Anybody would. I'd do the same for him."
