The Murmurings
“It’s way cleaner than I was expecting, given how he keeps his car. His deep-blue walls should make the room feel dark, but a giant window by his double bed (with sheets pulled so tight they threaten to bend the mattress in half) lets in the strong glare of late afternoon sun. The only thing that keeps the sunlight from blinding us both is an olive tree with pale bark and waxy leaves weaving a screen of protection. There are only two things hanging on the walls of Evan’s bedroom: a framed Arizon...a Diamondbacks pennant and an old Arizona State University jersey signed by Jake Plummer. His desk is clean save for a closed laptop and a mechanical pencil. His dresser drawers are closed without a single stray piece of fabric peeking out. The carpet under my feet is a pleasant light gray, the same as the rest of the house, and vacuum marks still stripe the floor. I’m in the world’s cleanest room.
