Chapter 57

• There was dead silence all through the drive home. A kind of silence that even the sound of a fallen pin could be picked out_ since I told him it was Alfred. I couldn't lie. I knew he was going to catch me.
• He didn't do anything, only the reflexive clenching of his jaw was the only indication of the rage seething through him. I briefly glanced at him from looking outside the window in suspense, daring him to say something. Just anything. I hated the silence because then I wouldn't know what was going on in his head.
