We sat in the museum café, at a table by the window.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNwj26qZBT
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG14EYY12AB
Sunlight filled the courtyard outside. A coffee machine hissed behind the counter.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBXIWNCBU3
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIjVu3EvjK
The waiter asked whether we wanted anything to eat. Daniel ordered without opening the menu.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVTq3eLSfb
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCiK6SVbhB
For a few minutes, we tried to decide where to have dinner.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0u79f42DXy
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡor8rwQXCOr
When Daniel’s sandwich arrived, he moved the plate aside to make room for his glass.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqrR5IqbP7
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fAjZZHPZa
Mia unfolded the museum leaflet and smoothed it flat between us.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRjF5pjgop
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowxtRtIezn
"That passage isn’t marked," she said.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBQPMzCnww
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEO3VQ3bh8
Daniel glanced at the plan. "Maybe it wasn’t supposed to be open." His sandwich remained untouched.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3yc2OWhkG
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIgEqSQZBy
Mia followed the edge of the last gallery with her finger, then looked up at me.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz70LSXbkHM
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BAJEvXgLO
"Kim, you were very quiet in there."95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ngoivfh8o
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfNfSlmBf5
I looked down at my drink.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzjUoVYqye
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbSvAYrcTW
"You looked at all three, didn't you?" she asked. "What did you see?"95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpETv0iqzMO
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBUB3LuCSj
I had been waiting for this question since we left the hallway. Now that she had asked it, I wished I had spoken sooner.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicoHsfvcrU
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5yUyGz4t7
"Nothing," I said.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZdicfTgSQ
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjaYnuWcE5
Daniel frowned. "What do you mean, nothing?"95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9COMH9A7J
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSYBg6Qqgj
"I saw the three lamps. I saw the circles of light. I saw all of you pointing and talking."95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTTXoL6T9i
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkTKppcgaQ
I looked at each of them.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuAq3hnLd3
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6oF9zSfJb
"But there were no paintings. No frames. No pictures. Nothing."95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakrp05CPCr
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmlueRS4xB
Mia slowly put down her cup.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmTa1iL8R7
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZp3pR8fjSh
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EiXiHiq9n
"The whole time," I said, "you were all looking at a clean, empty wall."95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jvYkpWZvm
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9iW8DXD2e
* * *95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIKgLrsK9P
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfzdfefWiO
For a long moment, nobody moved.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjA7IWHA02
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyuIqd8SrD
Then Oliver picked up his camera.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2m26fpIhW0
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIy7NcbnzCZ
"I took a photo," Oliver said. "When we were looking at the middle one. Let's check."95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduXVE7lk4l
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6dgqvSPLV
He pressed the button and turned the screen towards us.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSvzPjnSGQ
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCLnVPlpCV
The photograph showed the wooden floor, the three lamps and the wall beneath them.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrCJfOZAXK
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWnChkPZ4o
No paintings. No frames.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Lyr3JNhIZ
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTUJQEImKg
Exactly what I had seen.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oYtp64Mqq
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsG2GrlR9HF
Mia covered her mouth with her hand.
Then Daniel leaned closer to the screen.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyfcNp2TgP
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXmmDdmmEq
"Where are we?" he asked. "Mia was right behind me."95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuuatzBj3e
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8aZ3wh2Mu
Oliver did not answer.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXmTkAelCO
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTYCVyN54y
Daniel had been standing under the middle lamp, pointing at the wall.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHx9GXByUL
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoYS54MCpJ
Mia had been just behind him.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLF1yaAp7bP
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoAQBOoMjE
The woman in the red scarf had been close enough to touch his arm, and her friend had been beside her.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbFUvnuINh
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Jta4lLsjH
There was room for all four of them in the photograph.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK80qMzoS3
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlSxyP5CY5
But the hallway was empty.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WD9o2gPeZ
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvpR8By1Ax
Oliver enlarged the image. The floorboards grew wider. A small crack in the plaster came into view.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRqWTXpiOh
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcFBE20ri1
He moved across the photograph, from one edge to the other.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1PPHOjFXS
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyODZ5OQBr
Nobody.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdvZ3hJi8J
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqnxjMGkkj
"You didn't wait for us to move?" Mia asked.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxINVDMtAK3
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlU5INB9iif
"No," Oliver said. "Daniel was still pointing."95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsR8H56sHW
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGqigHcg8D
Daniel looked down at his own hand and pressed it flat against the table. "I didn’t move," he said.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjKtpHNc1G
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVe6ojhj1X
I watched Oliver return to the full photograph. I could remember the voices, the gestures, the way we had stepped aside to let the women pass.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFGXENJnlM
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFa583LcKv
The camera had recorded none of it.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzl7CbntLW
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlODxElDqgN
"Send it to me," I said. I wanted to look at it somewhere else, away from that building. Oliver sent me a copy before putting the camera away.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETYScXmP8l
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeq86vXhk5
95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oHRxjlcyM
By the time it reached my phone, I no longer wanted to open it.95Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjDFH9cTQ4
