Marilyn shoved the remaining cr ackers into her mouth while turning her head. She was avoiding Lewis’ question.

She said calmly. “The cafeteria is crowded. I don’t think I can wait in the long lines, so i brought Marilyn along.”
He looked at her before telling Marilyn, “Order four meals from tomorrow onward. You can eat upstairs.”
Marilyn hurriedly nodded. “Okay.”
She hadn’t swallowed her cra ckers. A few crumbs slid into her throat while she was talking. She began coughing
