“Instead, I collapsed in a wreckage-filled apartment. I slept, despite the livewire. A fire had ravaged most of the building, leaving the structure weak and the pickings scarce. Scavengers wouldn’t be looking here, and squatters had better places to live.
The building whined in the gentle breeze, but no one listened to its complaints as I slept soundly. I woke with a twisty pit forming in my stomach. The sun slicked across my left eye. My muscles hurt, not ‘straitjacket-night’ pain but the d...ull ache of intense overexertion. I pulled my phone out and tried to inform Vincent of the situation. My texts didn’t deliver.
