CHAPTER

7

A Room with a Terrifying View

I sat on the floor next to Brenda and gently took the Magic Marker from her hand. She didn’t resist. Brenda is as hard as nails. I know that’s a cliché, but the words could be chiseled on her tombstone. She doesn’t talk about her childhood, but I know enough to wonder how she turned out as wonderful as she is. She grew up street-smart and with fierceness that could cower a charging rhino. She’s also, despite all her talk and threats, a deep, loving soul.

I may just be a college-age kid, but I know a little about people. Someone as heartbroken as Brenda didn’t need words of comfort. She needed an arm around her shoulder, and I had a big arm that could do the job, so I used it.

Daniel moved close and sat on the other side of Brenda. He scooted close enough that his little shoulder touched her arm. He said nothing.

No one said anything.

The professor, who could ruin any moment, lowered himself to the floor next to me. A moment later, Andi did the same next to Daniel. There we were, five silent, shaken, confused, and frightened friends sitting on the floor of the ladies’ bathroom doing our best not to look at Brenda’s wall art.

A few minutes later, I took another look. There I was, dead and being devoured. I wished Brenda had not been such a good artist. Based on her earlier success, it looked like I was going to die and die badly.

Then the building shook again.
