  The trooper put handcuffs on my wrists.

  Sport barked a protest at them.

  “Why are they arresting Charlie?” Larry cried out in distress.

  I smiled down at him. “It’s all right, Larry,” I said. “It’s going to be all right.”

  “But they’re arresting him, Mommy! Why are they arresting him?”

  “Ssh,” she said.

  “Don’t worry, Larry,” I told him, trying to smile. “Don’t be afraid. It’s going to be all right, you hear me? Don’t ever be afraid.”

  The trooper grabbed me by the shoulder again. He started pressing me toward the door.

  I held back. I turned to Margaret. “Thank you,” I said. “God bless you.”

  She shook her head. “God bless you,” she said. “Don’t you be afraid either.”

  “I’m not afraid,” I told her. “I’m not afraid.”

  The trooper turned to Rose. Rose kept looking at me.

  “Charlie West,” Rose said, “you’re under arrest for murder and escape.” Then he added to the trooper, “Take him in.”

  The trooper marched me out the door and into the darkness.
