The
storm
,
which
had
abated
at
dawn
,
began
to
return
as
the
day
passed
.
Gray
,
roiling
clouds
stretched
from
horizon
to
horizon
;
a
slow
drizzle
began
to
fall
.
The
body
at
the
base
of
the
tree
seemed
to
have
become
less
,
in
its
stained
motel
winding
sheet
,
crumbling
into
itself
like
a
sugar
cake
left
in
the
rain
.
Sometimes
Shadow
burned
,
sometimes
he
froze
.
When
the
thunder
started
once
more
he
imagined
that
he
heard
drums
beating
,
kettledrums
in
the
thunder
and
the
thump
of
his
heart
,
inside
his
head
or
outside
,
it
did
not
matter
.

He
perceived
the
pain
in
colors
:
the
red
of
a
neon
bar
-
sign
,
the
green
of
a
traffic
light
on
a
wet
night
,
the
blue
of
an
empty
video
screen
.
The
squirrel
dropped
from
the
bark
of
the
trunk
onto
Shadow
s
shoulder
,
sharp
claws
digging
into
his
skin
.
"
Ratatosk
!
"
it
chattered
.
The
tip
of
its
nose
touched
his
lips
.
"
Ratatosk
.
"
It
sprang
back
onto
the
tree
.
His
skin
was
on
fire
with
pins
and
needles
,
a
pricking
covering
his
whole
body
.
The
sensation
was
intolerable
.
His
life
was
laid
out
below
him
,
on
the
motel
sheet
shroud
,
literally
laid
out
,
like
the
items
at
some
Dada
picnic
,
a
surrealist
tableau
:
he
could
see
his
mother
s
puzzled
stare
,
the
American
embassy
in
Norway
,
Laura
s
eyes
on
their
wedding
day
He
chuckled
through
dry
lips
.

"
What
s
so
funny
,
puppy
?
"
asked
Laura
.
"
Our
wedding
day
,
"
he
said
.
"
You
bribed
the
organist
to
change
from
playing
the
Wedding
March
to
the
theme
-
song
from
Scooby
-
Doo
as
you
walked
toward
me
down
the
aisle
.
Do
you
remember
?
"
"
Of
course
I
remember
,
darling
.
I
would
have
made
it
too
,
if
it
wasn
t
for
those
meddling
kids
.
