He was smiling. It was one of those sincere smiles grown-ups give kids when they’re trying to get them in arm’s reach for something bad. Doctors smile that way right before they give you a shot; teachers look the same just before they tell you they found out what you did.

Despite all my mother’s flaws including her mean streak, I never once saw that travesty of an expression on her face.
