PART 2

Spike-Tailed Fish and Flesh-Eating Worms

Time passed—or didn’t—happily for a few weeks after these many discoveries. Henrietta visited the attic twice each day: afternoons after school with Gary and Rose, and at night before bed, alone, when she changed Mister Lady’s bandages. The wound was almost entirely healed, although for some reason it seemed reluctant to close completely.

Henrietta liked being in the attic at night. It reminded her of the evening she’d first discovered it, and she’d begun to enjoy being by herself. She found she could think more clearly, and she sometimes sat on the couch in silence with Mister Lady, not doing anything other than rolling the events of the day around in her head.
