Chapter 19: Brooke
The ladies' room at the Broad Street Hotel had marble sinks, a brass door, and a bench nobody sat on.
Brooke got there first and locked herself in the last stall.
I stopped outside it and put my palm on the door.
"Brooke."
Nothing came back but her breathing.
"You can delete it if you want," I said.
"The recorder uploads continuously. The lawyer set that up. It's already gone to a server."
A shaky tap came from inside, and then another.
Then she let out a sob so loud that it echoed.
"Then it's over," she said.
"For him it is. Not for you."
"I just wanted him to look at me."
"Brooke, he looked at you and saw a girl who would say 'nine weeks.'"
The stall was quiet.
I leaned against the sink.
"Monday night I was in Colin's coat closet," I said. "Glenn and I both heard you two come in for the gray phone."
She made a small, wet sound.
"I heard him say there was never a baby, and that you were good at it."
"He said I was good at it," she whispered.
"He said Florida, and he said we."
