A Day’s Wait
(after E.Hemingway)
He came into the room to shut the windows while we were still in bed and I saw
he looked ill. He was shivering, his face was white, and he walked slowly as though
it ached to move.
"What's the matter, Schatz?"
"I've got a headache".
"You better go back to bed".
"No, I am all right".
"You go to bed. I'll see you when I'm dressed".
But when I came downstairs he was dressed, sitting by the fire, looking a very
sick and miserable boy of nine year. When I put my hand on his forehead I knew

"You go up to bed," said, "you are sick".
"I am all right", he said.
When the doctor came he took the boy's temperature.
"What is it?" I a sk e d him.
