"Oh? And what was that?"
Richard inches closer to Angie. "She wouldn't listen to me. Then she shot Angie."

Richard snorts. "Then it was a loaner."

"Why...?" Richard stares at Tom. "Really? Why?"

Tom looks at Angie. "A little." He looks at Richard again. "And I overheard father talking about it with Mister Byrd. Mother told me to keep it quiet, but I wrote you a letter."
