Mary’s looking around.
Shovel clanked hard earth.
Mary stops, eyes darting either way.
I think she can hear me.
I know she can’t see me.
Why?
I’m six feet underneath her bare feet.
How is this possible? Mary shouted with a warm breath.
Didn’t she know even if she killed me, I’d still end up in her head?
