Mmmmama!-THUNK-Mmmmama!-THUNK-Mmmmamaaaa!-THUNK

“See Missus?The room’s too small.”

Huh, look at that? She has her hands to her face, she’s gone all pale, and her mouth is open in a big wide O. Reminds of that painting I once saw. Some brain and bone slides down the wall and her Yorkie runs and tears into it as if it hasn’t been fed in weeks.

Mrs Brannon gasps, collapses.

I let go of the little boys leg, and step over Mrs Brannon, scratch out her listing.

On to the next one.

Looks like this is gonna take a while
