After
309Please respect copyright.PENANAoWHQh9DYEW
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.309Please respect copyright.PENANASTyIl6GnAH
309Please respect copyright.PENANAg7VGZDYhLc
A sick feeling fills my stomach and throat, and I wonder if I'm going to throw up.309Please respect copyright.PENANAbHUh76uyy5
309Please respect copyright.PENANArbeGLmQNP8
But then I hear it.309Please respect copyright.PENANAjLzw0j0hN9
309Please respect copyright.PENANAPZ7a4dCJbs
The vibration.309Please respect copyright.PENANAUdwp4J9r4W
309Please respect copyright.PENANAhHqrqvtLhp
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.309Please respect copyright.PENANAmkdubUfaIw
309Please respect copyright.PENANApgVr4BIQBT
Where are you?309Please respect copyright.PENANAAcMmOSjwLe
309Please respect copyright.PENANAgHopMw7hn7
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.309Please respect copyright.PENANA0dbwstgCLy
309Please respect copyright.PENANADUycSK8enH
It's blood.309Please respect copyright.PENANA1eZ13Ti9Vu
309Please respect copyright.PENANAHW4pFtmfiW
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.309Please respect copyright.PENANA7xGKevhGoD
309Please respect copyright.PENANAXgjXljc7hf
I want to hide.309Please respect copyright.PENANAsU6fVdfzUe
309Please respect copyright.PENANAdK0yjKxU0F
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.309Please respect copyright.PENANAojDlOg8P5w
309Please respect copyright.PENANABTE4kULEpq
I shouldn't have gotten behind the wheel.309Please respect copyright.PENANAIv8C7LdrrB
309Please respect copyright.PENANACkFBkq9Cj5
The droplets of blood form a trail now, that stretches along the fork in the road.309Please respect copyright.PENANABhYAbToqEY
309Please respect copyright.PENANACOkxlC3Oz7
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.309Please respect copyright.PENANAYGm8B5AsoO
309Please respect copyright.PENANAhZCUVSKZ6V
What if he's someone I know?309Please respect copyright.PENANATZlKNC4kup
309Please respect copyright.PENANA17JoqE0R1j
That thought fills me with dread.309Please respect copyright.PENANANU8gqhPo3R
309Please respect copyright.PENANAWkyQ9l0X76
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.309Please respect copyright.PENANAxcbaIOnmXX
309Please respect copyright.PENANAEl2peqdnwO
He's dead.309Please respect copyright.PENANATbVhT4YNdK
309Please respect copyright.PENANAI4s4u49pJN
I kneel down in the snow, and the cold crawls up my body, but I barely feel it.309Please respect copyright.PENANAua0KVItHWM
309Please respect copyright.PENANA9vFkN3LR8m
I close my eyes, and the wind howls in my ears.309Please respect copyright.PENANAZgQVTjLZDE
309Please respect copyright.PENANAQ3umawRhYx
It whispers killer to me.
