<p><font =20color=3D"#FFFFF9">It was cool, but=
not a pleasant cool. =20Yes. =20He =
had done amazingly well for a man who had once found it impossible to writ=
e if he was out of cigarettes or if he had a backache or a headache a degr=
ee or two above a low drone. =20The first was that A=
nnie Wilkes had a great deal of Novril (she had in fact, a great many drug=
s of all kinds). =20The pain was like the pil=
ing, sometimes covered and sometimes visible, but always there. =
=20Christ, days went by and the hole in the paper was =
small, the light was dim, the overheard conversations witless. =
=20He saw Annie Wilkes in a long aproned dress, her hair cover=
ed with a mobcap, an Annie who looked like a nurse in London's Bedlam Hosp=
ital.Next page. =20It was not just a question of Can You? =
=20Let that be the end of her. =
=20"he growled, and then the sticks fell over with a clatter, adding to t=
he fun. =20"She went back to the door, hesitated there, and=
turned back.</font></p>
<p><font =20color=3D"#FFFFF6">Only her e=
yes, those tarnished dimes, were fully alive under the shelf of her brow. =
=20The proverb says revenge is a dish best e=
aten cold, but Ronson Fast-Lite had yet to be invented when they made that=
one up. =20The thought that grieving for a fictional character was absu=
rd did more than cross his mind during his tossings and turnings. =
=20Oh, what a variety of strange and poisonou=
s flowers grew beside Annie's version of that quaint old path! =20A=
nd so he was hardly prepared when Colter whispered in an affrighted voice:=
"Scratchin=BBsounds , sair! =20But if you want me to=
take you away, to scare you or involve you or make you cry or grin, yeah.=
=20He crawled through the door, expecting her hand t=
o settle around his ankle again at any moment, but that did not happen. =
=20She stood looking at him, at the darkening, bloody shee=
ts with vague consternation=A0=97 her face was the face of a woman who hea=
rs on her radio that an earthquake has killed ten thousand people in Pakis=
tan or Turkey. =20He could see a short hallway leading down to =
what was clearly the parlor: a dark-red rug on the floor, an old-fashioned=
divan upholstered in similar material, a lamp with tassels hanging from i=
ts shade. =20He heard the thud of first one knee from behin=
d him, then the other, then the first again. =20When she came=
in he thought at first that she must be a dream, but then reality=A0=97 o=
r mere brute survival=A0=97 took over and he began to moan and beg and ple=
ad, all of it broken, all of it coming from a deepening well of unreality.=
=20They want the same two things they always want=A0=97 f=
or you to fuck up while the tape's running and for someone else to buy the=
martinis when Happy Hour rolls around. =20He shoved the l=
ast under the mattress, then leaned back and looked up at the ceiling, whe=
re the W's danced drunkenly across the plaster. =20Somet=
imes he thought it would be worth being back with Annie just to have the d=
ope. =20they sat in a circle, and the=
game was like Annie's chapter-plays, and he almost always won. =
=20Listen very carefully and don't interrupt, because I don't=
know how much time I have. =20"I think there mu=
st be at least seventeen cents there in the night-table,=BBhe said. =
=20AUTHORITY had arrived at Annie's, and its ar=
rival here could do nothing but shorten his own life. =20Annie would have=
watched all twenty episodes in one night, even if they gave her eyestrain=
and a splitting headache. =20After a moment's consider=
ation, Paul rolled the wheelchair across to his door and leaned his ear ag=
ainst the wood. =20He decided that if he, wasn't going to es=
cape or burn the house down, he ought go on back to his room. =20=
Then she twisted the nozzle off and walked back along the hose's length, l=
ooping it over her arm.</font></p>
