Nouvelle orientation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Topeka, Kansas<\/strong>
Dimanche 26 octobre 1980, 14h00<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

J\u2019ai conduit pendant la premi\u00e8re heure dans la peur de voir un barrage sur la route. Je n\u2019ai commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 me d\u00e9tendre un peu que lorsque nous avons atteint Caney, la premi\u00e8re agglom\u00e9ration au Kansas. Nous avons roul\u00e9 un bon moment au milieu des grandes prairies. En arrivant \u00e0 Burlington, j\u2019ai d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de faire une halte. J\u2019en avais assez de conduire et j\u2019avais faim et soif. Comme \u00e0 son habitude, Becky dormait sur le si\u00e8ge passager. Je me suis arr\u00eat\u00e9e \u00e0 la seule station de la ville. C\u2019est en allant payer le carburant que j\u2019ai pris conscience de l\u2019\u00e9tat de nos finances. Il me restait moins de cent dollars. Par chance, Becky avait un peu plus, mais \u00e0 nous deux, nous avions tout juste de quoi tenir une semaine, en d\u00e9pensant le minimum. Cette constatation a renforc\u00e9 ma d\u00e9cision de vendre la voiture au plus vite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nous arrivons \u00e0 Topeka, un panneau \u00e0 l\u2019entr\u00e9e de la ville nous apprend que c\u2019est la capitale de l\u2019 \u00c9tat du Kansas. Ce n\u2019est pourtant qu\u2019une petite ville. En ce d\u00e9but d\u2019apr\u00e8s-midi de dimanche, il n\u2019y a pas beaucoup de monde dans les rues. Je roule un peu au hasard, pour me faire une id\u00e9e de la ville. Becky bougonne \u00e0 c\u00f4t\u00e9 de moi. Je sens qu\u2019elle n\u2019aime pas trop cet endroit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab Qu\u2019est-ce qu\u2019on vient faire dans ce trou \u00e0 rats ? me demande-t-elle avec hargne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Moi aussi je pr\u00e9f\u00e9rais Tulsa, mais ce n\u2019est pas moi qui ai eu l\u2019id\u00e9e de jouer au cow-boy avec un revolver charg\u00e9 !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Mais pourquoi ici ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Je te rappelle qu\u2019on nous recherche en Oklahoma, enfin, toi surtout. Le Kansas, c\u2019\u00e9tait la fronti\u00e8re la plus proche. Tu as vu par o\u00f9 on est pass\u00e9es ? Tu aurais voulu qu\u2019on s\u2019arr\u00eate ailleurs ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 On n\u2019a vu que des champs et des for\u00eats !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 C\u2019est \u00e7a, alors sauf si tu as envie de rejouer La petite maison dans la prairie<\/em>, on a plus de chances de trouver de quoi vivre dans une ville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Tu vas encore bosser dans un bar ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 J\u2019avais envisag\u00e9 de me reconvertir comme pilote d\u2019avion, mais je crois que je n\u2019ai pas le profil. Tu as d\u2019autres questions ? Et toi ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Je ne sais rien faire, et puis je ne supporte pas l\u2019autorit\u00e9 ! Je peux me d\u00e9brouiller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 C\u2019est \u00e7a, jusqu\u2019\u00e0 ce que tu te retrouves oblig\u00e9e de tirer sur quelqu\u2019un !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Si tu en as marre de moi, tu peux continuer toute seule. Je ne t\u2019ai rien demand\u00e9 apr\u00e8s tout ! \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Un instant, l\u2019id\u00e9e me s\u00e9duit. Apr\u00e8s tout, ce n\u2019est pas moi qu\u2019on recherche. En tout cas, pas dans cette r\u00e9gion. Je pourrais continuer vers l\u2019Ouest, j\u2019ai toujours r\u00eav\u00e9 de la Californie. Los Angeles ou San Francisco, je pourrais y aller en train ou en bus. L\u00e0-bas, je n\u2019aurais pas de mal \u00e0 trouver du travail. C\u2019est mon c\u00f4t\u00e9 protecteur qui prend le dessus. Comme \u00e0 Memphis, comme \u00e0 Tulsa, je ne peux me r\u00e9soudre \u00e0 abandonner Becky. Livr\u00e9e \u00e0 elle-m\u00eame, il ne faudrait pas longtemps pour qu\u2019elle finisse sous la coupe d\u2019un mac ou m\u00eame pire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab Il faut qu\u2019on trouve le moyen de se faire un peu d\u2019argent et changer de voiture. D\u00e8s demain j\u2019essaierai de nous d\u00e9barrasser de celle-ci, elle a d\u00fb \u00eatre signal\u00e9e par ta copine Marcie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Mais on est au Kansas ! objecte Becky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Oui, c\u2019est vrai, mais les flics ont le t\u00e9l\u00e9phone, ils finiront par passer le mot aux alentours quand ils verront qu\u2019on a d\u00e9camp\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Qu\u2019est-ce que tu vas en faire ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Il doit y avoir des marchands de voitures d\u2019occasion \u00e0 Topeka. J\u2019en tirerai sans doute quelques cinq ou six cents dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 On l\u2019a pay\u00e9e huit cents !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 Oui, mais \u00e7a c\u2019\u00e9tait avant qu\u2019on soit en cavale. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je rep\u00e8re un petit motel \u00e0 la sortie de la ville, sur la route de Kansas City. Je remarque qu\u2019il y a un arr\u00eat de bus \u00e0 proximit\u00e9. On en aura besoin si je vends la voiture. Je cherche une place de parking \u00e0 distance de la r\u00e9ception, on ne sait jamais. Un adolescent boutonneux somnole derri\u00e8re le comptoir, dans un coin une vieille t\u00e9l\u00e9 diffuse un match de base-ball. Je paye cinquante dollars pour deux nuits. Je lui demande s\u2019il y a une superette \u00e0 proximit\u00e9. Il me l\u2019indique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Une heure plus tard, je me suis teint les cheveux en ch\u00e2tain fonc\u00e9, Becky, elle, est devenue blonde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
