Ghosts Along The Way

December 13, 2021
Nothing More, Nothing Less

They were just kids. Kids shouldn’t be out on this road.

Why would they be out on this road so late at night?

They probably live nearby and wandered off.

Why were they waving me down?

It must’ve been a misunderstanding. They mistook me for someone else.

Why were they crying?

They probably tripped. I’m sure it wasn’t anything serious. Kids overreact.

Why was there all that blood?

It’s not your problem, you have somewhere to be. It’s okay, if it’s something serious, someone suited will handle it. You have responsibilities. You have somewhere to be.

Why did they scream?
