The corners of Jack's mouth fluttered into a kind of partial grin, his shoulders twitching as he pulled his arms closer to his chest. Now he was at the total mercy of Mother Nature's wild snowstorm that blew in through the rafters. And now, covered by a flimsy, lice-infested blanket, the young newsboy was cloaked in the gloomy ward of the older boys' dormitory. It must have been the chloral they'd dosed him with as a precaution. His first night of sleep on Randall's Island was a deep one. You can't fall asleep, is it? Have you bad dreams? If it weren't for the cadenced inflation and deflation of his ribs, one would've confused him for a dead body. A sailcloth pillow was propped between his head and the flee-ridden paper mattress, his arms folded fast, his long legs spread out in front of him. His lips were so split from the biting cold it was a miracle they hadn't fallen off altogether. The exhausted, brown-haired newsboy intertwined his brows, crinkling to his temples and his frozen nose like a frostbitten rabbit.
