Chapter Eight

"Hey John. Can I talk to you for a minute?"
"Sure Walker."
"Over here." Hed led John away from the chatting women. Walker hesitated, trying to decide how to take this with John. "Does Lisa have any children you know about John?"
"Ah, yeah. A fifteen year old girl Mariah."
"Do you know where she is?"
"Right now?"
"Yes."
"Ah, Lisa said she's out running around somewhere."
"Did you know she's in our van with my boys?"
"Is she doing anything- what's she doing? You mean she actually came home?"
"What she's doing in our van is eating. Eating and talking with them. And did you know she's been home the whole time Lisa and Mariah have been here?"
"What?! Lisa told me-"
"Lies. All lies. Mariah's always been in that room in the basement- the one Lisa didn't want anybody to go in. Do you ever see Lisa go down to the basement with food?"
"The last time...no. I don't remember. So let me get this straight. Mariah's been in the basement the whole time, with no food, and Lisa's been lying to me about it."
"Exactly. Mariah's been locked away in that room since your wedding."
