The Truth Is Here L. A. Marzulli Copyright © 1999 by Lynn Marzulli To my loving wife, Peggy When men began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them, the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose. Then the LORD said, "My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days will be a hundred and twenty years." The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown. 1 Alone in the dark, Art MacKenzie slouched on a torn sofa in his disheveled studio apartment. His bare feet rested on the single piece of furniture from his marriage he still possessed: a coffee table with one leg missing. He sipped slowly from a dirty glass and felt the Grand Marnier warm its way down his throat, adding to the fire that already burned in his belly. He took another sip, this time a longer one, closed his eyes, and relived it all one more time. * * * He runs frantically down a hospital corridor and slams into the door of the emergency room. It bursts open, crashing against the wall, the noise reverberating, startling doctors, patients, and nurses who look up at him, wide-eyed. He steps into the room and stops. His eyes dart wildly from person to person, one hand pushing his hair off his fore-head as he tries to catch his breath. His chest heaves— to get here, he has run faster and harder than he has ever run in his life. He knows he must appear crazy, but he doesn't care. He draws a deep breath, so deep it hurts, and bellows: "Maggie!" No one answers. |
