Chapter 13: No
Nobody at the long table moved.
Sixty people held their forks above their plates.
Lucas looked at the ring beside the duck.
Then he looked at me, and I watched him decide what kind of man to be.
"No," he said.
His voice was steady, and his hand on the cloth was not.
"I don't accept it.
"That's the ring on the table.
"It isn't your letter, and it isn't day thirty."
"I don't care what day it is."
"I know," he said.
"Your badge still works.
"Your desk is yours.
"You are still my wife on paper, and I will not sign anything you write."
"You can't keep me."
"I can't," he said.
"I'm going to try anyway, by every honest means I have.
"I'm not going to chase you tonight."
He did not stand up.
He did not reach for my sleeve.
That was the worst part, because I'd been braced for him to do it.
I had a speech ready for the hand on my arm.
I had nothing for a man who said he would not let me go and then let me walk.
I walked out of the dining room with sixty faces turning to follow me.
