to be chased by a monster meant bad luck in the future ; to kill a monster meant just the opposite . ignoring the heat the electricity caused by him being in the room , i made my way over to the dresser . where she 'd been so loose in his arms just moments before , now her movements seemed a little stiff . she leaned her head back in the door . i had to give him props - the boy was good . he took a sponge and soaped her down .
