Of course I knew then where Hester had hidden Owen Meany; he'd been under the couch cushions-and under her!-all the while we were searching. That explained why his appearance had been so rumpled, why his hair had looked slept on. The Hank Bauer card must have fallen out of his pocket. Discoveries like this-not to mention, Owen's voice "speaking" to me in the secret passageway, and his hand {or something like a hand} seeming to take hold of me-occasionally make me afraid of 80
