They did not often speak directly about the promise in year eight. It existed—Ernest had written it in the journal at the end of the fourth year, had returned to it at the end of the fifth, had noted its approach at the beginning of the sixth. Don knew about the journal entries; he read over Ernest's shoulder on the evenings when Ernest wrote at the study desk with the door open, which was the signal that the writing was not private.
