Before I could even say anything, he said, Where are you?
I told him I was in the bedroom.
I told him something was at the back door.
I told him it sounded like Carla.
Ray went quiet for maybe half a second, then said, ''Do not talk to it again.
Do you hear me?
Don't answer anything it says.''
I asked him what it was.
He said, ''I don't know.''
He said it too fast.
I told him that was a lie, and he said, ''Mason, listen to me.
Stay in the room.
Keep the door locked.
If it gets in the house, you shoot at the floor in front of it if you don't know what you're doing.
The sound might scare it off.
Don't go near the windows.''
That was when I remembered the bedroom had a window.
It was on the wall opposite the bed, facing the side yard and the old corral.
The blinds were closed, but not all the way.
There was a thin gap between two slats.
