It’s been two days since I've left for the city. I left the house the next morning and started walking toward the city. I’m not there yet — I’ve been cutting through back roads and staying off the main highways just in case. The city skyline is finally starting to peek over the trees now. The sirens are still going. Fainter here, but constant. They don’t echo out here like they did in town — it’s ... » Continue Reading
Sorry for the silence. I didn’t disappear — the power did. Everything in the house went out around 10PM last night. Completely dead. No lights, no outlets, not even that weird flickering I kept seeing when I stared too long. Just… nothing. I couldn’t charge my phone. Or my laptop. I couldn’t post. Couldn’t even text.

It all looks so normal — like they just » Continue Reading
I went back out today. I had to. Staying in the house felt… off. Not scary exactly, just wrong . Like the air was too still. Like I was being stared at by nothing. I walked farther than last time — all the way down past the post office and into town. It’s weird how untouched everything is. The world looks like it’s mid-sentence » Continue Reading
I woke up this morning to every tornado siren in town screaming like it was the end of the world. But there was no storm. No wind. No rain. Just me, alone in my room. The air felt... too still . I thought maybe I overslept — maybe everyone had already gone to the basement. But the house wa » Continue Reading
