The Decoding Of Lana Morris (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
Lana closes the door to her room, sits on the bed, and tries to stay perfectly still, as if by doing this she might become a rock or stick or bone, something free of thought and feeling, but she isn’t rock or stick or bone and through the walls she hears a toilet flush and then she hears the water pipes tremble and whine as the shower starts. So he’s taking a shower before going to the hospital. Wanting to look good for Veronica. Well, why shouldn’t he? He’s her husband. She’s his wife. Downstairs, the Snicks are suddenly talking and moving, which means the video must be over. Lana should go down, but she doesn’t. She slides the black box of sketching paper from under the bed. She’s thinking of drawing Chet standing over the lawn mower, or Whit eating in bed, or maybe even Whit walking across the room with his shoulder blades like the hands of someone trying to get out, but she knows that would be death squared if Veronica found it, and finding things is Veronica’s specialty.
