I spotted (发现;认出) him at the checkout counter, bagging at No.14. His arms shook violently as he placed a carton (纸板箱;纸盒) of eggs into a plastic bag. He wore a yellow plastic name tag on which he had written “Jerry” in kindergarten penmanship (书法). He looked middle-aged but his mental age must have been about 12.
Ever since I smiled at him the first time he bagged my groceries at my local supermarket, Jerry has followed me around like an adoring fan. His lack of boundaries makes me uncomfortable. I don’t know how to avoid being noticed by him. I don’t want to speak to the manager — my complaint could get him fired. So I start avoiding him.
There are other grocery stores, but I choose this one because it employs people with disabilities, from which my brothers have also suffered.
Last Wednesday after I finished choosing what I wanted, I turned around and drove my cart to Checkout No.3, hoping Jerry would not notice me and stay at No.14.
“Paper or plastic, ma’am?” Jerry’s soft voice surprised me from behind. “Paper, please.” I noticed that the checkout stand created plenty of space between Jerry and the clerk. In this situation, he knew where to stand. The clerk said to me: “＄27.30, please.” I handed my own cart, signed my receipt and stepped around the counter, where Jerry was holding my last packet of biscuits. He came towards me, stopping an inch from me. He was too close. I wanted to dash out of the store and leave behind the packet. Instead, I stood with my hand frozen on the cart. His eyes looked lonely — I knew they would follow me after I left the store. I wanted to apologize for my coldness. “I’m …I’m sorry.” A tiny voice inside me said. I tapped my head with my hand as if I had forgotten something. “Forgive me. I’m from New York City. I’m not used to people being so helpful.”
He laughed. I laughed. His eyes brightened. “It’s my job, ma’am. I like it.” he said. When he offered to push my cart, I didn’t care but nodded deeply.

Jerry turned the key in the heavy lock and put it calmly in his pocket．He did so much more from caution than from any kind of fear．This was the only entrance to the house，and he did not want to be caught by any danger from outside．He wondered if David Jackson had been as careful the night before．Though David would be away for at least three days，Jerry had a strange feeling of his nearness．In the stillness he seemed to hear David’s voice．He looked around quickly，for the tricks of hearing were the most realistic of all．But there were only the women．It seemed impossible that David should not be there．

The girl，carrying a smoky oil lamp，led Jerry upstairs．He threw open one after another the doors along the passage．At this，the girl stopped and raised the lamp in each doorway，staring at him at the same time．Satisfied he was the only guest，Jerry came to the last door，which the girl threw open herself．

“You sleep here，sir，”she said，giving him the lamp．“Your friend sleep here，too．It is our most comfortable bed．”

“Good night，miss，”he said politely．

Her lips moved in reply，but he did not catch the words．Her eyes never for a moment left his face．He stepped in and as he turned to close the door，she was still standing there motionless．He paused，and in the silence，he thought he again heard the sound of David’s voice．The sound terrified him now，not only because it seemed much nearer，but also because he imagined a note of warning it．
