Chapter 27: His Rules
At six the lock turned again, the other way.
Galina stood in the doorway in her nightgown with a ring of keys as big as a fist.
"Galina has keys to everything," she said. "He forgets this also."
The little one woke and started to complain.
Galina scooped her out of the crib and marched down the hall with her, and I followed them into the kitchen.
Ilya was at the island in yesterday's shirt with black coffee and his arm across his ribs.
He looked like he hadn't slept.
Galina put the baby in my arms and turned on him.
She said it in English, so I'd hear every word.
"You lock your wife in a room like a dog. In my house. Your mother would spit on you."
"It's my house."
"It's Galina's house. You only pay."
She slammed a pot on the stove so hard the lid jumped off.
Ilya looked at me over the rim of his cup.
"Here's how this goes," he said. "You stay out of my room and out of my office."
"And?"
"And you stay out of Brighton business. All of it."
