After
357Please respect copyright.PENANASKBbsxhzpD
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.357Please respect copyright.PENANAbGDGpKB21w
357Please respect copyright.PENANAcekyZnbWVW
A sick feeling fills my stomach and throat, and I wonder if I'm going to throw up.357Please respect copyright.PENANAtRyGfzQtJX
357Please respect copyright.PENANAMR1y36Fhv4
But then I hear it.357Please respect copyright.PENANATx2PHBtRuk
357Please respect copyright.PENANA3aAqLV4zMI
The vibration.357Please respect copyright.PENANAFUXbypytnV
357Please respect copyright.PENANAdtwo2Uhvjg
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.357Please respect copyright.PENANA7OCqwxR7Bc
357Please respect copyright.PENANASwwVoQitqP
Where are you?357Please respect copyright.PENANAozLVMzqP24
357Please respect copyright.PENANAs5OSG6Lwjk
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.357Please respect copyright.PENANAFyYT5NblqK
357Please respect copyright.PENANABtMLembRfK
It's blood.357Please respect copyright.PENANA5leZGoC8NP
357Please respect copyright.PENANAVKdS52Ey0n
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.357Please respect copyright.PENANA1cChnzjrE6
357Please respect copyright.PENANACweLmDgl8p
I want to hide.357Please respect copyright.PENANA9xjqu6O3dT
357Please respect copyright.PENANAByJ5SWQKqL
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.357Please respect copyright.PENANAlwggMbdc18
357Please respect copyright.PENANAKtA2ypjGjL
I shouldn't have gotten behind the wheel.357Please respect copyright.PENANANbxo2k0Zft
357Please respect copyright.PENANAbPxQMGN5bu
The droplets of blood form a trail now, that stretches along the fork in the road.357Please respect copyright.PENANAOt9fKcRDfi
357Please respect copyright.PENANA6d8F348WO9
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.357Please respect copyright.PENANAHZN8LfDuLP
357Please respect copyright.PENANAI3fp8y3CcL
What if he's someone I know?357Please respect copyright.PENANAp3hZiJ20oB
357Please respect copyright.PENANAYhEFdDkjV2
That thought fills me with dread.357Please respect copyright.PENANAWFz7GsVYCW
357Please respect copyright.PENANA1k94I1bWud
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.357Please respect copyright.PENANAny6YV1TvkJ
357Please respect copyright.PENANAnxG2ozJca8
He's dead.357Please respect copyright.PENANAb6p9s09Rbc
357Please respect copyright.PENANA4ciMAy2uOH
I kneel down in the snow, and the cold crawls up my body, but I barely feel it.357Please respect copyright.PENANAvfBUNjA8K2
357Please respect copyright.PENANARnsqLEBRAj
I close my eyes, and the wind howls in my ears.357Please respect copyright.PENANAwzBA8l9rd1
357Please respect copyright.PENANASwyAR0Qxu3
It whispers killer to me.
