Coma Keeper

Imran Khan

Imran Khan

Nov 21, 2018

Lisa reached into her pocket about to hand her phone to Beth-ann, only to suddenly change her mind...

You're making fun of me aren't you?

School ended. Lisa walked home. CIA shadows followed.

Arriving home, Lisa went upstairs to her room. Dumped her backpack on her bed. Unzipped. Pulled out the Coma Keeper. Dug around for her phone.

Almost every moment of Lisa's afternoon was captured on the hidden cameras. Things she did only when she was alone: watching dumb/rude cartoons, eating an entire box of cookies, talking to herself out loud; replaying events of her day that she was unsatisfied with.

Creep... Yeah, creep... Stop looking through my stuff creep teacher... Creepcher... Substitute Creepo...

Sub:
-Was I being creepy?
-I thought it was confidence.

The moments not captured was her phone use.

Frank:
-so aggravating
-even with all these cameras we're missing half of what she's doing

Mr. Heart arrived home. They watched the nightly news together.

With her position on the couch, the cameras finally caught something she did on her phone: DuckDuckGo'ing a Pakistani politician mentioned in the news.

Mrs. Heart arrived an hour later with Chinese takeout.

Lo mein, wonton soup, spare ribs in plum sauce, fried rice, fortune cookies...

Your kite will not fly without an opposing wind.

Dig the well before you get thirsty.

Heroes have visions, not dreams.

Lisa went to her room for the night. Lights off.
Night-vision seeing her jumping into bed, under the covers. Kicking up the covers so they billowed out over the Coma Keeper and backpack at the foot of the bed.

Comfortable in bed, Lisa pulled out her phone. Once again using it from an unviewable angle.

NEWS:
-Heightened Activity

Frank:
-it's happening
-if she's the kid... she's doing it NOW
-i need to see what's happening on that phone
-i need it
-we can no longer wait for the opportunity
-make one
-i'll leave it up to you guys on how

Lisa put her phone to sleep. She crawled out of the covers to the foot of the bed. Palming the wall, feeling in the dark for the power outlet where her phone charger cable dangled from. She plugged in her phone. :snap:

NEWS:
-Activity Ceased. Duration: 7m48s.

Lisa put the Coma Keeper and backpack on the ground. Got back under cover. Went to sleep.

[Four Hours Later]
