“ | "Mother!" wailed Cagney. "Mother is gone!" added Lacey [...] “Gone,” repeated Lacey. “We slept in our bed—” “Safe, warm, good.” “—and then we were outside, alone, and all trace of Mother was gone. We’ve gone around the whole house, and she’s not here. Who will feed us? Who will pet us?” In a moment of rare complex thought, Lacey looked at me and asked, “Who will pet you?” |
