Chapter 13: Free to Walk
Senator Haskins held out his hand, and I did not take it.
"Senator," I said. "If you want a word with me, you can have it out here."
"In front of these cameras, tomorrow, at nine."
"Not today, and not in a car."
His smile stayed exactly where it was.
"Nine o'clock," he said. "I'll bring coffee."
He turned and shook hands along the line of reporters.
Nelson's fingers closed around mine, and he walked me inside.
The showroom was loud with phones and nobody pretended not to stare.
Hallie put a thermos cup in my free hand without a word.
Nelson took me into the glass office and shut the door.
Through the glass, Constance stood at the front of the room with her arms folded.
She was talking to nobody, and her jaw was working.
"Sit," Nelson said. "Please."
I sat on the edge of his desk.
He did not sit.
He stood at the window with his back to the room, breathing.
"I need to say something, and I need you to hear all of it," he said.
"You said that behind the barn."
"I know. It worked."
I almost smiled.
"Haskins will come for you now," he said. "Your father, your name, your face, every day until November."
