The silence was deafening. I kept hearing echoes of canes swishing and cracking in my head. Every now and then the woman would cluck her tongue, whether in surprise or disapproval, I couldn’t know. Finally she put down her folder and shook her head at me. “I see that you are a consistently naughty lad, Barkley,” she said, her lips curling downward in a frown.
