Chapter 17: The Coffee Pot

Armen's POV

My mother turned from the stove with the poker in her hand and said my name in daylight.

"Armen jan," she said. "Your coat is on wrong."

It was the first time in six years she had said it in front of anyone, and she said it easily, while she poked the coals.

I buttoned my coat.

Talin had gone to the sink with her back to us so I would not see her face.

That evening I told her I was going to the plant, and it was the first lie I had told her since the cemetery.

I did not go to the plant.

I drove out to the Boghosian ranch on the north road, with a long envelope on the seat beside me, and I did not take off my glove.

I wanted him to see me as he had always seen me, one last time, before I said it.

The ranch house stood at the end of a quarter mile of almond trees, a big white two-story with a porch light on.
