You start to wonder if he is 20 feet behind you and you missed him.
I almost moved twice in the second hour.
I almost got up and worked my way to a different spot because the spot I was in started to feel wrong.
The way a spot does at night when you have been still too long.
Both times I made myself lie back down.
I made myself remember the math.
he had no reason to think i was here he had every reason to follow the false track i had made if he came at all he would come from the south and he would come to the lip of the sinkhole and he would look down before he looked anywhere else because that is what a track that ends at a sinkhole tells you to do
I just had to wait.
Around the time I was starting to doubt myself for the third time, I heard him before I saw him.
He had a light by then, a small one.
Red filter, the kind hunters use to keep their night vision.
He was sweeping it low along the ground, three feet ahead of his boots.
He was being careful.
He was being patient.
He came along the ridge from the south the way I'd come, and he was reading the ground.
He found the broken sapling.
He found the scuffed leaves.
He found the drag mark where I dragged my heel.
He came to the lip of the sinkhole.
I had been holding my breath off and on for so long that my chest hurt.
