Darlene jerked when Janine drop out of sight. It looked like Janine had plummeted through a trap door.

Of course she didn’t, she thought. See her head?

She did—but only by standing straight and leaning over the jumble of broken concrete she hid behind. If Janine were to look up—

But Janine didn’t. She sat on the filthy floor, staring raptly at the glass she held in her hands.

Oh, babydoll, she thought, what’s going on with you?

She’d watched Janine talk to herself, then cry, then become fixated on the glass in her hand. Janine, who always stacked the deck against herself and took a grim sort of satisfaction out of achieving whatever goal she’d made, was almost unrecognizable to Darlene now. She hadn’t been eating or socializing, and for the past few days had looked like she was sleepwalking. She hadn’t shown up for work yesterday, but only Darlene and Dale had noticed.

And then she’d come here. Darlene guessed she’d also visited this hovel yesterday.

She didn’t want to interfere—doing so might crack the fragile shell Janine had—but she didn’t know how much longer she could stand by the sidelines.
