Quote #10
Just behind the veil of the vacation was not a soft face of laughter, but something hard and bony and perhaps terrifying. Timothy could not lift the veil, and the two other boys were busy being ten and eight years old, respectively. ("The Million-Year Picnic," 43)
Timothy is too young to understand what's just changed—that his family has moved to Mars. But he's old enough to know that there's something different about this vacation: it's permanent. This is a change that's going to stick.
