She supposed he’d been annoyed by their conversation, but still she was surprised. “We had a disagreement,” she told Will when he asked after his brother. He sucked his teeth. “Let me guess: you waited until tonight to tell him you were leaving.” “Yes, but I’m sure that wasn’t it.” “I wouldn’t be too certain. He can’t have been happy about it.” She thought of how Tommy had left so abruptly years before when she’d laughed at him, but this was totally different. They were mature adults, and even though she knew she couldn’t count on him for the future, she didn’t think he was childish. Though she had to acknowledge that she hoped he might be hurt enough to need a few minutes to himself. But when Mrs. Hatch appeared to tell her that Tommy had been called away on business, she reminded herself what a capacity for ignoring the truth had done for her in the past and refused to let herself think about him for even one more second.
