Curiosity Killed the Kat
“When I opened my eyes I went through that jumble of confusion that happens when you wake up in a strange bed. My first thought was that it had all been a horrible dream and Steven would be coming in with coffee or a request for me to pick up his dry cleaning that day. And then I remembered that Steven wouldn’t be bringing me coffee and I would never be running his errands again. And then the moment I remembered that, I remembered my mother was dead and I couldn’t turn to her for help.
For a... second it all felt like it was pressing down on me, trying to suffocate me again, the way I’d felt last night on Mrs. Foote’s couch. I had to make an effort to lift those feelings away from me and bury my fear and grief deep inside so it wouldn’t crush me. I blinked quickly to keep the tears from falling. I had to be strong today, and do something to get us out of this mess. But right now, I had to find out who was knocking on the door.
