The Last Update That Nora Had Posted Before She Found Herself Between Life and Death: I miss my cat. I’m tired.
The Successful Life
She had been asleep. A deep, dreamless nothing, and now – thanks to the ring of a phone alarm – she was awake and didn’t know where she was.
The phone told her it was 6:30 a.m. A light switch beside the bed appeared, thanks to the glow of the screen.
Switching it on, she could see she was in a hotel room.
It was rather plush, in a bland and blue and corporate kind of way.
A tasteful semi-abstract sub-Cezanne painting of an apple – or maybe a pear – was framed on the wall.
There was a half-empty cylinder-shaped glass bottle of still mineral water beside the bed.
And an unopened collection of shortbread biscuits. Some printed-out papers too, stapled together. A timetable of some sort. She looked at it.
