After
310Please respect copyright.PENANA67IL11O583
My hands shake as I search for my phone. It's stuck somewhere in my broken car, but I need to find it. I need to call someone.310Please respect copyright.PENANAC2logCA2Wx
310Please respect copyright.PENANA8B8QDGO1fW
A sick feeling fills my stomach and throat, and I wonder if I'm going to throw up.310Please respect copyright.PENANAWlHMu2V1uK
310Please respect copyright.PENANARsJKCXmZUL
But then I hear it.310Please respect copyright.PENANAdnWGWsAjZt
310Please respect copyright.PENANA90ndFw4NdJ
The vibration.310Please respect copyright.PENANA6mzS6yZsJ3
310Please respect copyright.PENANARlPcI9z39s
The screen lights up, and I see that my phone is on the floor on the passenger side. I grab it and look at the incoming text from Dakota.310Please respect copyright.PENANAfCkfVXzPkP
310Please respect copyright.PENANAT5eLVZbjdS
Where are you?310Please respect copyright.PENANAWDK7WBHbvz
310Please respect copyright.PENANAAhPDHF7GFh
My body aches as I pull myself out of the wreckage, then look around. The road is empty, except for the snow and the red droplets.310Please respect copyright.PENANAi7cZ5TG4oU
310Please respect copyright.PENANAkcauavFCIa
It's blood.310Please respect copyright.PENANAWnpCitzUrB
310Please respect copyright.PENANAz0MKxBEvYd
I use my phone as a flashlight and start to walk, snow crunching under my boots. It's the only sound. The night is still, even the animals are quiet. They all heard the crash, and hid.310Please respect copyright.PENANAGFkRaOqUgz
310Please respect copyright.PENANAlGyMwQeADw
I want to hide.310Please respect copyright.PENANANQj6bO5Qj8
310Please respect copyright.PENANAZpv2Jr0kaj
I look at my phone, at the unanswered text, and my eyes fill with tears. I can't tell her what happened. She knew I left after I had a few beers.310Please respect copyright.PENANABGfULfvcmR
310Please respect copyright.PENANAYF5e33K0IL
I shouldn't have gotten behind the wheel.310Please respect copyright.PENANAVjCLSFWDwh
310Please respect copyright.PENANAvcQl2n0fyE
The droplets of blood form a trail now, that stretches along the fork in the road.310Please respect copyright.PENANAFgrBeSBWtF

I go left, and then I see him. He's face down in the snow, his body twisted, bloody, and bruised. He's wearing a big jacket, and I can't see his face.310Please respect copyright.PENANAa6FcsqOdT1
310Please respect copyright.PENANACPhwEIAPfY
What if he's someone I know?310Please respect copyright.PENANADg9pitzgfq
310Please respect copyright.PENANAyy6KPjRInn
That thought fills me with dread.310Please respect copyright.PENANADrgUwa6W8o
310Please respect copyright.PENANAvCzw15lBNu
He isn't moving, and I know why. The impact of the front of the car, his body slamming against the windshield, that's why.310Please respect copyright.PENANADyAxwmWhDU
310Please respect copyright.PENANAHNvvsqqJ9C
He's dead.310Please respect copyright.PENANA25fdsMb28F
310Please respect copyright.PENANAI1wie32IZ6
I kneel down in the snow, and the cold crawls up my body, but I barely feel it.310Please respect copyright.PENANA5FccMJtPZv
310Please respect copyright.PENANAWeSnOho8cP
I close my eyes, and the wind howls in my ears.310Please respect copyright.PENANATPD6gdsW7G
310Please respect copyright.PENANAHGbTBGHmta
It whispers killer to me.
