The strange thing about turning back toward home is knowing the way. With each landmark she recognizes, Fup can't help calculating how long it should be before she's there. But what's most surprising about heading back is having gone at all.
"My parents met in the woods, in Maine, during an ice storm that knocked out power across six counties for a week," Fup recites, more to herself than her friends as they gather at the edge of a stream to drink.
"We know the story," Wiggums reminds her, pawing at his soaking chin.
Joe and Zooey could probably drink forever. The cats by now are accustomed to waiting. "I am so incredibly hungry," Zooey moans before sinking his mouth back into the lazy current.
"I want to see my sisters," Fup says. She's so happy she's practically despondent. She could die of satisfaction; she might swoon from pure despair.
