Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z By the time Calder retrieved his sandwich and sat down, she had begun to laugh. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder opened his mouth when the 5:38 train went by, rattling the windows, making the floorboards bounce, and filling the kitchen with the whoosh-whoosh of passing steel. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She was saying dumb stuff, but she hoped Calder would get the message: What happened yesterday in Powell’s didn’t need to be mentioned. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Calder, did you want to say something? It looked like your hand was up,” Ms. Hussey said. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Both struggled with the zipper on Calder’s backpack. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z As soon as Calder said it, he wished he hadn’t. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z He admitted to Calder that he might have been a bit dramatic with the kidnapping stuff, but facts were facts: Frog was there one day and gone the next. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was flipping back and forth in the book. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “No, I meant pray, as in hoping to stay safe,” Calder said. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She could hear Calder’s voice piercingly high with fright: “If you come any closer, I’ll put my knee through it. I will. Then you’ll be in big trouble.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s disappearance was more than a little frightening. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Yes, I even like to—” began Calder eagerly. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Tommy didn’t know exactly when this would happen, but he said that the Dewey Avenue Rescue Fund, the money Calder and Petra had collected by selling brownies, was a definite help. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder flipped back and forth in the book, looking at some of the other Vermeer paintings. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s job was to organize the data the class collected into a giant chart. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Maybe we could steam it open,” Calder suggested. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “And of course not the kid,” Tommy had said when telling Calder. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “And maybe there’s some other crazy connection with Charles Fort,” Calder went on. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was going over everything he’d seen Mr. Watch ever do that was puzzling—why did he spend so much time in the art section of the store? Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z He’d told Calder he was beginning to wonder if there was a reason that everyone in his neighborhood was so unfriendly—like there was some huge secret he hadn’t figured out. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Once Petra remembered Fort’s sentence We shall pick up an existence by its frogs, she pointed out to Calder that perhaps it had been some kind of strange clue. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Here’s where she turns into a regular teacher,” Calder whispered behind the guard’s back. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder kind of wanted to laugh, too, but the news wasn’t supposed to be funny. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Both kids ducked, and Petra hit Calder in the nose with her hair clip. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “I’m fine,” she blurted, and shoved Calder back out the door in front of her. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra and Calder felt separated from everyday life by a chasm of responsibility. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z If she recognized Calder, she didn’t let on. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z It was then that Calder’s lunch box collided with the back of a chair and popped open. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z People came from miles around to walk down the block where Petra and Calder lived, and families took pride in becoming as frightening as possible. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s mom, Yvette Pillay, had short hair the color of an apricot and a jingly laugh that made other people laugh even when they didn’t know why. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z As they got closer to the slide, she saw that the lump was Calder’s sweatshirt on top of a flurry of newspapers, the papers he’d carried when they’d run from Delia Dell. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder had always liked the man’s appropriate name. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder nodded toward the walls in the room they were sitting in. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder looked at the book in front of him. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Thanks, Mrs. Sharpe,” Calder said, realizing he probably didn’t have to overdo it on not looking well. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder told Petra about his box, explaining the reason he happened to be looking at the book. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Mrs. Sharpe’s tone made it clear that she could soon be finished with Calder, too. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She watched with something of her old fierceness while Calder put away the letter. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z A nagging doubt crept into Calder’s mind: Could Mrs. Sharpe be so clever that she had framed herself? Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder did understand Petra’s excitement; it was just that he hadn’t wanted to look like an idiot again. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z As she turned away, Calder thought she looked frightened. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder reached down and grabbed a danger: slippery when wet sign that had been left by the door and padded it with a stack of university newspapers. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z When it looked like Fred was gone, Calder got to his feet. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z They dropped the jar of quarters they’d been counting and rushed around the corner to where Calder’s parents were watching TV in the next room. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Looking out his living room window after Petra went home, Calder could see the blue flash of police cars and knew they must be stationed outside Mrs. Sharpe’s house. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder explained about his job at Powell’s and the delivery yesterday. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder and Petra sat down and sipped obediently on tea served in cups so thin that you could see the shadow of your finger on the other side of the china. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z There was a long silence, and Calder could feel Mrs. Sharpe’s eyes drilling into his head. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z When the guard was out of earshot, Ms. Hussey smiled warmly at Calder and Petra, looking first at one and then the other. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Not knowing what to investigate, neither Calder nor Petra had done any further research. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z At 7:30 on the morning of November 5, Calder was hunting for his sneakers. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder tore it open and began decoding as Petra watched, fascinated. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Got it,” Calder called back, fumbling on the wall inside the first room he came to. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z A neighbor stayed in the Pillays’ house in case Calder got back on his own. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Calder and I have been pretty inspired by—well, by his way of seeing. It seems like most people aren’t brave enough to question things the way Fort did.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “The basement—my friend Calder and I need to finish an assignment by today—is there some one who could let me in?” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was home with a cold the following day, and Petra walked home from school by herself. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z When the door opened, Calder was surprised to see Mrs. Sharpe looking almost friendly. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder, still surprised, was warming up to the situation. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Reaching bravely into blackness, Calder groped around for the light. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra got bitten by a hamster, and in the science room Calder accidentally allowed a box of hissing cockroaches to escape down a heating grate. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “There one day, gone the next,” was Calder’s way of putting it. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She reminded Calder and Petra that Charles Fort didn’t believe in coincidence. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Calder, that looked just like my dad’s sweater. I’ve got to peek out.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder grabbed the box and rushed downstairs—he would take a “rainbow bath,” as Grandma Ranjana used to call it. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z After she left the room, Calder and Petra looked at each other. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Without a word, Calder tried the door on the right-hand side. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Why had he been so friendly to Mrs. Sharpe, walking her to the store before Calder started her deliveries? Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder put down his cup and started running his fingers excitedly through his pentominoes. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra grabbed Calder’s sleeve and pointed to a giant file cabinet. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z That was the same day Calder had received his first set of pentominoes. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Tommy Segovia had lived across the street from Calder until this past August. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Now, don’t forget and don’t lose it, boy” Mrs. Sharpe was eyeing the duct tape on Calder’s backpack. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s dad said he remembered hearing that Mrs. Sharpe’s husband had been murdered in Europe many decades ago, and that he had been doing research on Vermeer at the time of his death. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s swallowing made a loud noise in the silence. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z They raced up Calder’s front steps and straight to his room. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder got a recording saying that Tommy’s number had been disconnected. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder popped the U back into his pocket. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder felt his face get hot and slammed his locker door. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder walked by it and was surprised to realize that it was the same book they’d seen Ms. Hussey pay for at Powell’s a couple of weeks earlier. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder and Petra lived on Harper Avenue, a narrow street next to the train line. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z First, Petra wrote down the titles of the books Calder remembered from Mrs. Sharpe’s bag, then Calder sketched the standing wardrobes. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z The nurse refused, and Calder and Petra stood up to go. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was impressed by Petra’s writing, and wished it were his own. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z After their visit with Mrs. Sharpe and the news about Frog, Petra and Calder couldn’t wait to get back to the search. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s parents had told him that the chances of it being a real kidnapping were small. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z If the secretary came with her, she’d discover Calder had been there all morning. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z The most startling one was that the first letter of the first name of each person on Calder’s list was a pentomino. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was down on all fours looking up into the fireplace. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Once inside, Calder ducked out of his F and flew up the stairs. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z If she disappeared like Frog, it would be all Calder’s fault. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder walked quickly behind their teacher, his eyes on the counter. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z They both stared at the T in Calder’s palm. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z When Tommy moved away, Calder had taken over his job at Powell’s Used Books. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z That night Calder got a phone call from Tommy with the terrific news that he and his mom were moving back to Hyde Park. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s mom brought them cookies on dark blue napkins covered with green frogs. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z On the way back to Harper Avenue, Calder and Petra made a plan. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Feeling a stinging on his cheek, Calder wiped off some blood. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was squeezing the phone receiver so hard that his knuckles stood out. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z They had been great friends since second grade, when Tommy poured his chocolate milk on Calder’s bare legs and asked him how it felt. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Before Calder could say anything, Mr. Watch pointed toward a massive pile of children’s picture books. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra and Calder looked at each other, silently running through all the things that were going wrong. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “It’s hard at first. It takes time,” said Calder kindly. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “I’ll bet all of these main doors are wired,” Calder said. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s voice drifted back: “You wouldn’t dare hurt me!” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Walking down the block the next morning, Calder stirred the pentominoes in his pocket. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z A cousin in London had sent them as a twelfth birthday present, even though Calder’s birthday wasn’t until the end of the year. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z And then Old Fred announced, last July 4—Calder remembered the date because it took the bang right out of the fireworks—that the family would need to move to New York. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder asked, looking around at the peeling paint. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder came over and sat down quietly next to her. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z He took Tommy and Calder to Fifty-third Street for hot fudge sundaes all the time, and let them get any size they wanted. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra and Calder were too nervous to talk on the walk home from school. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z To her surprise, Calder was right behind her. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “My mom told me this was the first place at the university where women students could hang out. Anyway,” Calder said, “let’s keep going.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s head didn’t feel too swelled these days. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra, embarrassed by her accidental rhyme, looked sideways at Calder to see if he had noticed. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder held the box carefully in both hands. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder heard the toilet flush and hurriedly closed the top of the bag. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “This place is dead compared with Delia Dell,” Calder said, looking out at the bright building across the street. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder then realized that if you thought about those twelve people as pentominoes, you could see that certain ones fit into rectangles more easily than others. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Impatient to know what Ms. Hussey thought, Calder asked his teacher the question she usually asked them: “Well, do you agree?” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder had stopped chewing and was staring at her. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder noticed that she had unusually green eyes—a sea-green surrounded by lots of wrinkles and bones. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Before Calder got there, Petra looked at their last entry in the notebook. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Right. She wouldn’t want us to get hurt, too,” Calder finished. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She was gone, but she was everywhere—she was still Petra and Calder’s secret, but she was now a familiar face to many thousands of others. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder made two pumpkin pies that afternoon with his mom, and played three games of solitaire. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z They decided to save the blue M&M’s in Calder’s box and keep it under his bed. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was digging in his locker for his math book. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “That’s okay, don’t talk. We’re almost safe now—you, me, and the Lady,” Petra said soothingly She took off her jacket, wrapped Calder in it, and started quickly down the ladder to get help. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z A teacher rushed over, and Calder had explained that it was an experiment and that it felt just perfect. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder went on, “Remember the N for National Gallery that day we were trying to get the pentominoes to say something about where Frog was? That day with the frog napkins and the rain?” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder stepped over a nasty pile of garbage that smelled of sour milk and sneakers. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z A breeze was coming in the back, door, and some mourning doves that had nested on the back porch were cooing, making that slippery, burbling sound that Calder always associated with summer in his neighborhood. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Seeing how miserable Petra looked, Calder patted her on the back. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z As Calder held the flashlight, Petra rewrapped the painting carefully in the long strip of velvet, and then took off her sweater and tied it securely around the bundle. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z And then Calder noticed an old lady sitting on the ground between them. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Reminiscing about the kindergarten field trip to the basement, a tradition in the Lower School, Calder and Petra watched as the principal struggled with the bolt. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra scribbled Calder a quick note: The letter that blew away from me that day on Harper Avenue—it sounded just like this! Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra and Calder admitted to each other that she just might be innocent. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder rushed down and crouched next to her. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Starting on the first floor, Petra and Calder worked their way upstairs. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Calder, it’s so cold out. Do you suppose it will hurt her? I could wrap her in my jacket.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder and Petra looked at each other as Mrs. Sharpe disappeared to get a sheet of paper from the pile next to her computer. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder jumped up and got a piece of paper and pencil. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder started for home, moving unsteadily through backyards. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z As soon as she got to the classroom, Petra told Ms. Hussey that Calder had a morning dentist appointment, and slipped into her seat. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder staggered across the Castiglione’s backyard, tried to step carefully in Fred’s footprints so as not to leave a trail, and climbed the tree. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder forgot to whisper, and the sweater reappeared, pausing for several long seconds on the other side of the door before going on. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z But before Petra could think up an appropriate response, Calder blurted, “Then why did you get rid of your book?” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder, smiling at the chalkboard, now squirmed in his chair with excitement at the thought. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Heading back down their block, Petra and Calder shared their worries. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z It occurred to Calder that there could be hidden information here—after all, codes involved repetition, and the same objects appeared again and again in Vermeer’s work. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder could hear the sharp click of a door opening, and the thunk of a lock sliding into place from inside. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “What the—” Calder staggered backward into a dark doorway and stumbled over someone’s feet. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z As they followed the old woman silently through the house, Petra and Calder absorbed as much of what was around them as they could. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder folded his arms across his chest and looked sulky. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder groped madly for something to say, but everything he thought of sounded stupid. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z The ad that Calder and Petra read before school that morning in the Chicago Tribune said: You have come to agree with me. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra started on the upper right and Calder on the upper left. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z The next day was Saturday, and Calder arrived at Powell’s early Mr. Watch was seated behind the front counter, frowning over what looked like a letter. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra told Mrs. Trek that Calder had needed the bathroom and had gone back up. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder went back inside and watched from his front window until he couldn’t see the three of them anymore. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Calder! Calder!” she whispered at the foot of the stairs. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z The 5:38 southbound train went by Petra’s window exactly three seconds before it passed Calder’s. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Darn—the next person she saw was Calder. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Maybe we can see something through the front window—Mr. Watch is usually facing the other way. If we walk in the door, she might be right there,” Calder said. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder pulled a pentomino out of his pocket and looked at it. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z There was a ripple of unfriendly laughter from the class around him, and Calder could feel the back of his neck getting hot. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s grandmother had once told him that he breathed patterns the way other people breathed air. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra and Calder waited, silent, for her to come on again. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She was walking a couple of steps ahead of Calder. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder arrived at Powell’s that afternoon just as Mr. Watch was folding the top closed on a large paper bag. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder helped out one afternoon a week now, delivering books in the neighborhood or unloading boxes. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder pulled out one of his pentominoes and tossed it up in the air. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder reached into his backpack and pulled it out. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder noticed a hefty pile of papers next to her computer. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder stayed crouched for what felt like hours. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She heard a thud just behind her, and out of the corner of her eye she saw Calder falling over the edge of the climbing equipment. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder walked slowly through the next two galleries. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “We’d be the next to vanish, you can count on it,” Calder added. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z On the afternoon of October 12, Petra walked home from school with Calder half a block ahead of her. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “You mean like one of the three letters the thief talked about?” asked Calder. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s mom clapped her hand to her forehead. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She had failed him and failed the Lady, and now Calder was hurt. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder groped around for his pentomino as his teacher erased the board. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder and Petra sat on a long bench on the first floor in Delia Dell, sharing blue ones and a bag of potato chips. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder felt partly responsible—it had been his idea that Tommy do some detective work, and now his buddy had gotten in hot water because of it. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder and Petra spent most of the weekend baking brownies and selling them on Harper Avenue. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z As Calder absentmindedly watched the droplets forming and re-forming in shape after shape, an idea came to mind. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder understood the man’s fascination with connecting things that didn’t seem related, and he admired the way Fort challenged the experts. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder understood and carefully lifted the last layer of velvet. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Just then someone jostled Calder’s arm, and the letter fell. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder felt restless as he stood in front of the living room window on Wednesday afternoon. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Sensing that the woman was going to ask them what they were doing, or whom she was speaking with, Calder said a quick “thank-you-good-bye” and hung up. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder and Petra walked in silence, on either side of the sausage, to where Ms. Hussey was talking with a group of their classmates. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z He handed Calder a paper bag filled with books. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra and Calder stood, awed, at the entrance to the room. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was still holding what he now realized was the F pentomino. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z They were talking about letters that morning because Calder had groaned about having to write a thank-you note, and said that it was always a waste of time. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder listened to his parents read parts of the article aloud. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder and Petra found three other paintings of the woman in the yellow jacket. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z At once Calder had known what to do—the Y had to slide into the U, which had to fit next to the P. He even remembered the sequence of letters: YUP. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z After Calder’s last delivery to Mrs. Sharpe, Mr. Watch stopped by her house on the way home from work. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z The word Calder had seen on the cover hadn’t been “Never”—it was part of “Netherland.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Calder! I think we just might have a clue!” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She described in detail her dream about the painting, confiding that no one but Calder knew about it. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder noticed the top of Mrs. Sharpe’s head, just the crescent of a tidy white bun, in one window. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She opened to the first page and turned it toward Calder. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder noticed with approval that she never even looked back to see if everyone was with her; she was one trusting teacher. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She felt a sharp flash of fear for Calder, and at the same moment a flood of admiration for his quick thinking and bravery. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder seemed to pick up on her thoughts. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder concentrated on the table, which also had a necklace of beads and a book with French words on it. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She looked back to see Calder high on top of the slide, still clutching his bundle, the man standing below. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Something the rest of us don’t know about, Petra? Something you’d like to tell the police? No more secrets, now. And hanging out in Calder’s garden—really.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z When Calder flipped to the table of contents, he saw that Chapter Two was called “The Puzzle.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra and Calder talked about the book on the way to school the next morning. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z At lunchtime, Petra and Calder sat next to each other as usual. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder looked at the tops of the trees as if they’d been invited, too. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z And hadn’t she and Calder agreed that they needed to rescue Ms. Hussey? Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z He nodded to Calder and began lettering S-H-A-R with an indelible marker on the outside. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Then she gave Calder a hawklike glance, as if to say, I’m old, but not that old. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z On the way over, Calder peeked into the bag. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “I feel bad not being able to help,” Calder said to Petra. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She gave Calder an antique globe and a real Oriental carpet that looked just like the Geographer’s. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder, aware that he had trespassed again, looked down at the table. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Things with a scary sense of humor,” added Calder. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder, at that moment, looked out his front window to see Petra walking by holding a leaf several inches from her nose. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder wondered if he was becoming just as much of an oddball. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She looked shyly at Calder, aware that they’d both been crying. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Determined, Calder moved the shapes into one combination after another, flipping and turning them. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z The following morning, Calder and Petra sat down on a bench in the Gracie Hall lobby They were facing a stone fireplace that had a bust of Francis Parker on the mantel. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was jabbing the U pentomino into the arm of his chair for emphasis. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder and Petra were more than a little spooked by it all. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder paused, the box in his right hand, and looked at the rainbows floating on the far wall. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She looked so genuinely concerned that Petra and Calder began to wonder if they had jumped to silly conclusions the day before. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z On the way to school the next morning, Petra asked Calder about the V for Vermeer business. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z What if the man hurt Calder in the playground and then dragged him off someplace? Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Maybe the rain gave the frogs an excuse to drop in,” Calder grinned. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “These look like props for a goofy Vermeer,” Calder said. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder followed him onto the front walk, noticing with interest all the papers that had collected under the dead plants in their yard. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder gulped a glass of chocolate milk, stuffed a cookie in each cheek, and set off at a run. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Encouraged, Calder blurted, “Oh yes, all the time.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Too stunned to answer, Calder twisted around to see who had shoved him. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder stood up and reached into his pocket. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder shut the door, flushed hurriedly, and took several deep breaths. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z In celebration, Calder and Petra went to the Drake Hotel with Mrs. Sharpe for tea, and she told them both about deliveries that were soon to be made at each of their houses. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder counted: a thousand plus five hundred plus a hundred plus fifty plus ten plus five plus three—1668. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “Calder, I need you for something else. Come outside.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z As Calder mouthed, “Nope,” his dad grinned at him and mouthed back, “Good.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z As Calder ran down the hall, he heard his father remarking to his mother, “Must have Spelling today.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder and Petra, in their interviews with the press, didn’t share the entire story. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “I’m glad you’re all right, but hurry up, Calder! I had to steal the keys. Hurry!” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder’s dad peered at him over the paper. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder went directly to Petra’s and invited her back to his house. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder grabbed scissors from his desk and cut open the backpack. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z As soon as she left, Calder and Petra opened the supply room door. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder, in his excitement, was already headed for the front door. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She turned to open the door, and Calder knew he was being dismissed. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Ms. Hussey said, “Thanks, Calder. I didn’t know you lived right here.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder had pulled the I pentomino out of his pocket and was flipping it back and forth on the table. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z After writing the letter and sealing the envelope, it occurred to Calder that maybe this was bad advice. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was left to look around again for several moments. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z By the time Calder and Petra stepped outside, both men were gone. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder pulled a pentomino out of his pocket and began tapping it nervously against his knee. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Were she and Calder crazy to think those two women could be mixed up in the theft? Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra panted out her story about Calder and a man in the playground. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z When Mr. Watch went to use the bathroom, Calder rushed over to the bag and peeked inside. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder didn’t sound as confident as he was trying to feel. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z As if he or she were playing on Petra and Calder’s fears, the thief resurfaced the next morning. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder felt a sense of understanding, of sympathy for this man. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder couldn’t wait to tell Tommy what was going on, but knew he and Petra had to keep quiet for the moment. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z After tea, Calder filled in Mrs. Sharpe on all the patterns of twelve he had identified. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She saw Calder pawing obliviously through their soggy clothing for his jacket. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Fred had knocked him off the slide, and Calder had hit his head in the fall. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra whispered, “You wouldn’t understand if I told you. Oh I hope Calder is all right!” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder, wiping his cheeks on the sleeve of his jacket, pointed to the strand of pearls lying on the table. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “They help me figure things out,” began Calder. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z When Petra opened the door, there was Calder on her front porch wearing a large red letter made out of taped-together cardboard squares. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was thinking to himself that “spooky” would be a mild word for this place. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z On the day Ms. Hussey had given the art assignment, Calder went straight up to his room after school. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Petra held the phone at an angle so that Calder could hear, too. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z “He believes in figuring out the truth, no matter what anyone else says. Calder and I like that. I mean, he’s such a fearless thinker.” Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder had never seen either one of them look amazed when they opened the mail. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder was scraping the T back and forth on the wooden bench. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z She paused, looking thoughtfully at Calder’s enthusiastic grin. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z If she found them, should she race down and let Calder out? Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder smiled, remembering their conversation in the kitchen when he had first gotten his pentominoes. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Together they sat on the floor in Calder’s room. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z By the time Calder turned up, she was writing madly in the notebook. Chasing Vermeer 2004-06-01T00:00:00Z Calder pulled two packages of peanut M&M’s out of his coat and passed one to Petra.
