She unlocked the door of my room...
~.. and came in. There was a hypodermic in her hand.
I was too weak to fight her. She jammed the needle
into my arm with sadistic fervor.
I could hear the wind and rain outside. I knew
the river was rising. It would be flooding soon. I could
hear a heavy knocking against the front door. Then a
voice calling. A man s voice.
She went over to the window and looked out.
"Yes?"
I heard a voice shout, "Is everybody all right out
here, Mrs. Kinsolving?"
"Yes. Yes, we re all right."
I sat up, pushed back my sweat-plastered hair. I
started trying to get out of bed, clinging to the foot
of it. I could hear another voice down there now. It
was Red, the young bus driver who had brought me
here. "Mrs. Kinsolving," Red called, "that girl who
came out here yesterday-"
Mrs. Kinsolving said in her loud, flat voice, "She
has gone. I drove her back to the motel last night."
I was on my feet, swaying. "Red-Red!" I shouted
hoarsely.
She slammed the Window down and pushed me
back. "They ve left," she said. "Now go to sleep."
