Chapter 21

APRIL SEGUED INTO May, May into June, and June seemed to disappear right out from under us almost before we knew it. Anthony started in the summer program at St. Mark’s, and we settled down into a life of domesticity.
Early one evening in July, we stopped by George and Mike’s house for a brief visit. They’d called, saying that they wanted us to meet someone, and they asked us to bring Anthony and Grandma, whom they had met at church on a couple of occasions. We pulled into the front driveway of their house—the house was on a corner lot and also had a driveway on the side street—and made our way to the front door. I spotted Mike sitting on the enclosed porch, so I didn’t bother to knock and merely waited for him to come to the door.
“Good evening,” Mik
