Stuck in you

Letting out a sigh of relief, Jonathan stood up and said, "Let's have dinner first." He acted as if nothing had happened,

Rachel smiled to herself, and thought, 'See, he's no longer concerned about where on earth Jack has gone.'

And so it was time for him to find out what had happened between her and Jack. As she ate, Rachel pondered over how she might deal with Jonathan's questions.

After they finished eating dinner, Jonathan challenged Rachel to a game of Go. Rachel agreed, and went with him to the study upstairs.

Jonathan took out his chessboard, set it up carefully on the table, and arranged the black and white stones. They sat down opposite each other.

Jonathan stretched his arms and rolled up his sleeves. "It's been quite a while since the last time I played Go. I hope you'll take it easy on me."

Rachel said modestly, "You'd still be a better player than me if you took a ten-year break."

Jonathan giggled, flattered by her compliment. He waved his hand to brush her words aside and said, "Come on, it's been ages since we played Go. Let's have a warm-up game first."

Rachel nodded in agreement, and said, "Please!"

Rachel and Jonathan then began a silent battle with the black and white stones. At first he was taken off guard by her moves, and when he realized that she was really playing to win, he was totally unable to gain the upper hand.

Within twenty minutes, Jonathan suffered a crushing defeat.

Glancing at her father-in-law's gloomy face, Rachel felt a little embarrassed. Trying to offer an excuse, she suggested, "Maybe the color was bad luck for you."

Jonathan silently nodded and they exchanged the stones.

Not daring to be careless again, Jonathan spent an attentive hour with Rachel, absorbed in the game. At last, the game closed in a tie.

Jonathan shook his head in dissatisfaction and said, "Let's play again."

And so the third round began.

After her nap, Tracy awoke to find that the two were still playing Go in the study. She asked the servant to prepare some fruit. Then she took it upstairs by herself.

The two were completely focused on the board, and paid no attention when she came in.

Noticing the intensity of their concentration, Tracy put down the plate lightly and didn't say a word.

Of course, she knew what her husband's temper was like, so Tracy went to a corner and sat down, watching them play Go in silence.

Ten minutes later, at the brink of defeat, Jonathan had lost his spirit for the game. He put down his last stone in frustration, closed his eyes and sighed, "I lose. I'm getting old!"
