"After Ginger Snaps"
37. After Ginger, I
It all began after Ginger.
Sam remembers what happened very clearly, but it feels somehow disconnected from him, somehow distant to him now. It's as near to him as the throb in his cast, the ache on his shoulder where the sling balances itself for incline, but he just can't connect with any of it – his distance to the memory determines the amount of protection he has from the actual impact of it.
The entire experience is a simple breakdown of events, step-by-step, and every time he has to recall some aspect of it, everything plays in perfect sequence.
