After

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.424Please respect copyright.PENANAjcqwqAzff1
424Please respect copyright.PENANAGTcsUS7ntm
A sick feeling fills my stomach and throat, and I wonder if I'm going to throw up.424Please respect copyright.PENANAJreV6Lpy9m
424Please respect copyright.PENANAAjsGdfRCC3
But then I hear it.424Please respect copyright.PENANAcYTJn4UNBz
424Please respect copyright.PENANATmcwvT9y42
The vibration.424Please respect copyright.PENANAnJPIuQccGq
424Please respect copyright.PENANA02PxjVsnbl
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.424Please respect copyright.PENANA74Dg0hAy7e
424Please respect copyright.PENANAVvfLipExvA
Where are you?424Please respect copyright.PENANARkoTNHTf72
424Please respect copyright.PENANABpvRVTWFhs
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.424Please respect copyright.PENANAOp5p71dB8b
424Please respect copyright.PENANArMMSGO7vqi
It's blood.424Please respect copyright.PENANA0oVN89tCjE
424Please respect copyright.PENANAxrmDlbe2ED
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.424Please respect copyright.PENANAtU9IQpF6un
424Please respect copyright.PENANA3DPGoz5Uqh
I want to hide.424Please respect copyright.PENANAmFKIsVipdN
424Please respect copyright.PENANATMzB6whQQC
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.424Please respect copyright.PENANA74SijvHjdz
424Please respect copyright.PENANALGHsVqgWnj
I shouldn't have gotten behind the wheel.424Please respect copyright.PENANAiQHNQulqGb
424Please respect copyright.PENANA58Nht2nDBQ
The droplets of blood form a trail now, that stretches along the fork in the road.424Please respect copyright.PENANAvfWvUm9Xgj

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.424Please respect copyright.PENANAWLVOnEem8Z
424Please respect copyright.PENANAp7iMOb16B9
What if he's someone I know?424Please respect copyright.PENANABRqZ4okaUa
424Please respect copyright.PENANA0P4sLvgqAm
That thought fills me with dread.424Please respect copyright.PENANAj6LDbThowx
424Please respect copyright.PENANAZ72suISvDj
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.424Please respect copyright.PENANA78krLaQAGY
424Please respect copyright.PENANA05ORTwtHpF
He's dead.424Please respect copyright.PENANAsth8hHrxCs
424Please respect copyright.PENANAwjeG0kOs6g
I kneel down in the snow, and the cold crawls up my body, but I barely feel it.424Please respect copyright.PENANAJUcs9oFnR2
424Please respect copyright.PENANAXuluLhzdCx
I close my eyes, and the wind howls in my ears.424Please respect copyright.PENANAYyzdY8OU6x
424Please respect copyright.PENANA6JCHnONgFb
It whispers killer to me.
