Chapter 20: What the Notebook Said

I took the notebook out of the glovebox and sat down on the passenger seat with the door open.

The cover said FORMS.

I opened it.

The first page said DRAFT 1 at the top, in pencil, in square capitals.

Under it was one line.

"Good evening."

He had written thirty-one of them.

Each had a number, a date and a grade in the margin, in the same hand: BAD. WORSE. CORRECT BUT DEAD.

I started to read them out loud, because I am a person who reads things out loud.

"Draft four," I said, to the empty truck cab. "'Your hands are very competent.'"

"Thank you," I said, in my own voice. "Next."

"Draft nine. 'I find you extremely competent.' Crossed out. 'Extremely,' crossed out. 'Competent,' crossed out. That leaves 'I find you,'" I said.

I put my hand over my mouth.

"Draft fourteen," I said. "'I request the privilege of your company at a table.' Granted. With a wobble."

I turned the page.

"Draft twenty-two. 'If you ever need a door planed.' I have three doors, Soren," I told the cab.
