âAnd?â Graceâs impatience seeped out, even though she was trying to keep it in. She listened as Dez read from the screen.
âDonovan Horrocks had a promising career, starring in several cult films. Rumors of spousal abuse and occult activity dogged the actor, and by the early Ninetiesâ¦â
âOccult activity?â Grace interrupted. This was so dumb. Who would write that?
âRight?!â she heard the excitement in her sisterâs voice.
Grace stood and walked the OKâd candy over to Maude. She pretended not to give her daughter the booty, relented, and handed her the loaded plastic pumpkin. Maude sat on the fluffy white area rug, and Grace realized the waiting disaster after handing her so much chocolate. Grace smiled, but the smile turned sad. She walked out of the room, away from Maude, and into her dark kitchen, still fragrant with the smell of grilled cheese and tomato soup.
âItâs Wikipedia, though, right?â Grace said. âAnyone could have written that. I could go on Wikipedia right now and say he bathed every night in pudding.â
âOr the blood of children,â her sister replied.
âPuddingâs more fun, but honestly, they would be equally hard to clean up,â Grace said. âThe point is that whoever made your movie could have invented the write-up for, like, viral marketing or something. Like Blair Witch.â
âDude, this is totally happening,â Dez responded.
Grace remembered the last timeâthe suicide attempt, visiting hours, that poor orderly Destiny had fucked right in the hospital bed and gotten fired. She rested a hand on her ample belly and sighed.
âGod, I wish you liked romantic comedies. It would be so much easier if you kept thinking your life was a romantic comedy. Destiny, come over here,â she said. âRight now. Weâll drink some beerâwell, you canâand weâll all watch ParaNorman. You like that one.â
The first time theyâd seen ParaNorman, Maude was definitely too young for it. She sat the whole time in Dezâs lap, terrified. Dez had not seen the movie, but because it followed all the tropes of the horror movies she knew so well, Dez could whisper what was about to happen into Maudeâs ear. It gave Maude confidence and reminded her that it was all made up. Dez essentially ruined the movie for anyone within earshot, but sheâd saved the day for Maude, who was brave with the secret formula and eventually loved the movie.
âYou can stay here,â Grace offered. âThe cutie would love it.â
***
Destiny was about to accept the invitation when something suddenly occurred to her. She opened the film site tab.
She saw a new film.
Yolanda
âI have to go,â she blurted and hung up. Dez didnât think. She just tucked her phone into her back pocket, snatched her keys from the kitchen counter, and headed out. The sky had darkened since sheâd walked Howie to her door. She hated to drive when it was dark, but she didnât even take it slow. Really, she was driving somewhat recklessly away from her house and breaking one of her sacred safety rules by calling Yolanda, who didnât answer.
âCall me as soon as you get this,â she said authoritatively, not panicky, to the voicemail.
