Chapter 33

THE PHONE rang.

Mr. Halloway picked it up.

“Dad, this is Willy, we can’t go to the police station, we may not be home today, tell Mom, tell Jim’s mom.”

“Willy, where are you?”

“We got to hide. They’re looking for us.”

“Who, for God’s sake?”

“I don’t want you in it, Dad. You got to believe, we’ll just hide one day, two, until they go away. If we came home they’d follow and hurt you or Ma or Jim’s mom. I got to go.”

“Willy, don’t!”

“Oh, Dad,” said Will. “Wish me luck.”

Click.

Mr. Halloway looked out at the trees, the houses, the streets, hearing a faraway music.

“Willy,” he said to the dead phone. “Luck.”

And he put on his coat and hat and went out into the strange bright rainy sunshine that filled the cold air.
