That's what it wanted in the first place.
Salt the door and windows.
In the footlocker, underneath all the papers, was a 20-pound bag of rock salt.
I need to tell you what happened that night.
I need to get it out.
It was about 10.30 when I finished reading.
I closed the notebook.
I sat at the table.
The wood stove was popping.
The cabin was warm.
Outside, the hollow was dark in a way that only a place with no electricity and no neighbors is dark.
I heard something walking around the cabin.
Not on the porch.
Around it.
Outside, in the leaves.
Slow footsteps, circling.
One full circle around the whole cabin.
I sat at the table and I did not move and I listened.
The footsteps stopped at the front door.
There was a pause.
