After the Andertons

After the Andertons

"....Jude was in the kitchen. As Danny came through the front door he could see her at the table, the newspaper spread out before her, coffee going cold in her mug and the fog of her current smoke curling its way through the house. As she saw him she stubbed it out.
â€œYouâ€™re late. Local Election special?â€
â€œYou might say that.â€
He would tell her about the bizarre offer of the Lottery and she would sort it out for him, straighten all the pieces in his head and put him right on everything, because thatâ€™s what she had always done. Danny leaned against the table, felt light-headed, sick even, as he spoke.
But she did not say what he had thought she would. She had stopped smoking and looked at him very directly, even more directly than she usually looked at him, his wife's eyes, generally speaking, being x-rays into his soul.
â€œDannyâ€¦â€ he couldnâ€™t remember the last time sheâ€™d called him by his name, â€œ Do what has to be done.â€
