i was at least as wary about becoming part of the grand canyon group's reunion as i was about doing an unofficial asssessment of kanyn's emotional condition .
mostly , i feared i was too drained to adjust my footwork to the complexities of all the fresh choreography .
amy came up behind me and whispered ," 'm sorry for lying to you abouyt the boyfriend thghing . mel wants us to do that with anyone from .....back home ."i
"i umderstand ," i said .
jules greeted us at the door .
the decor didn't match the rustic architecture of the barn , jules 's grandparents had been a couple wih modern tastes . the living room was decorated like the showroom of a cutting edge contemporay furniture retailer from the late forties .
kanyn was curled into a ball at one end of a well preserved mid-century sofa . her facew was turned away from me . i wasn't convinced she was awake . amy was sitting on the scratched floor . leaning against a wall that separated the living room from the dining room .
mel semed to have been energized by her skip . however abbreviated from the closet , and was in the mood for continued revelations . she took adeep breath brefore she announed ," i have something to say ." everyone but kanyn looked ar her ."i'm the one who called lisa in new york ," she said ," jack had told me what she was doing for eric and ...his fiance . he gave me her phone number ,"
a couple of hours earlier , mel had led me to believe that my story about lisa's surrogcy for eric and merideth was news to her . it was increasingly apparrent to me that the kid did a lot of dissembling .
mel's pronouncement piqued amy's interest . she stood , walked across the room , and sat on the sloping arm of the uphostered chair where i was siting . almost immediately she slid toward me , i scooted over to give her somew space .
