have you heard it too?

sometimes i wonder if we all hear the same things, but just pretend we don't.

like the sound of someone walking upstairs when nobody's home, or hearing your name in a room full of people who swear they never called you.

maybe it's just our brains trying to make sense of things. maybe there's an explanation for everything, and we're just too stupid to find it.

but last night i heard my mom calling me from downstairs.

the thing is, she wasn't home.

i know because she called me five minutes later to tell me she was on her way back.

i didn't tell her what happened.

i don't know why. i guess i didn't want to hear her tell me i was imagining things.

but there's something i haven't been able to stop thinking about.

when i finally went downstairs, there was a glass of water on the kitchen table.

i'd left it in my bedroom before going to sleep.

anyway. has anyone else experienced something like this, or am i just losing it lol
