`` about time someone interesting showed up . '' in a few moments , there are just a handful left , and we easily pick them off , as the last walker finally hits the ground , i take a long and grateful look at our rescue party . worse even than the wet , heavy thud of her head hitting the red marble . that way , we can just check the places that either have a locker by that number , or dont answer their phones . their eyes were red , but they were not crying .
