When she got home and heard what had happened, Annie was tempted to deliver a lecture. She had, after all, warned Miranda not to take the kayak out until she had taken lessons, and just last night she had pointed out that the Sound had been unusually rough lately. "Small craft warnings," she had said. "And your craft is minute. But looking at Miranda now, so fragile and vulnerable, Annie could not bear to say a word.

"You have power of attorney," her mother was saying. "I want both of you to go in and sign the papers for me." "Oh, Mom, that can wait. Let's worry about your health now..." "You can worry about two things at once, Annie. I've seen it firsthand. I want you to go in." She paused. "I want that rotten, selfish, dirty bastard to face you," Betty said. "Both of you."

Annie had always wanted a bat mitzvah, but Betty thought they were vulgar and Josie thought all religious ceremonies were primitive, so Annie had waited until college to study Hebrew. That had been her prime reason for wanting the bat mitzvah. Her parents thought she wanted the party and the presents. But it was the lure of a dead language. She had taken Latin in high school for the same reason.

Frederick Barrow was what Miranda could only call a pleasant-looking man--not, therefore, her type. He had a puckish, friendly face and his hair was thinning, not a distinguished receding hairline like Josie's, just thin, combed back and a bit too artistically long. Miranda was sorry on that score and disappointed for Annie. But, as she loyally pointed out to her mother, what hair he had was silver.
