When winter came, Johnny was in school. In front of the fire, with snow blowing hard against the window, Sloane taught him to read the papers. By the time Johnny learned how to read little kid books, Sloane had stopped checking the horizon every night for headlights coming down the narrow dirt road that led to the farm.
By summer, when Johnny could read dime magazines, Sloane only checked every other night. By the time he and Johnny were sitting by the radio, hunched over, listening to Babe hit his sixtieth home run, Sloane had made himself forget about his brother, forget about the lights that might come down the road through the dark. By then he’d told himself a man could live and forget, because the past was so far down the track, it would never catch up.
