"Get out."
I look at my Mom in shock.
"What?"
"Get out."
I grab my shoes and a hoodie.
"Get out!"
Her raised voice surprises me and I quickly put them on.
"GET OUT!"
I run down the stairs and hurry out the door.
" GET OUT GET OUT!"
I keep running down the street, her yelling getting more quiet the further I go. I keep running even though I can't hear her anymore. What happened last night? I keep running. I no longer recognize the streets. I keep running. Where am I? I stop and look around. I've never been here before. There's a small empty park in front of me. I head to a nearby bench and sit down. Where was I last night. I rest my head in my hands. Where was I? I can hear laughter from the neighboring houses. Where was I? Where was I? Where was I? Where am I? I blink a couple times and look around. Im no longer at the park. How did I get here? I drop to my knees. What's happening to me? I feel a tear run down my cheek. Why can't I remember? I wipe my face. What's wrong with me? I stand up and take in my surroundings. There's a construction site next to me. I've been there before, but when? I walk into the site, it's abandoned. How do I know this place? I continue to follow a familiar path, I can see a section that's more finished then the rest. Some thing is pulling me towards it. I need to go there. As I walk forward I can feel my heart beat faster, heavier. I can feel it beating through my entire body. Faster, heavier. I'm close now. A strong foul smell invades my senses, so strong I almost vomit. I keep walking. My heart feels as if it will tear from my body. I reach the corner. I stop walking. Do I want to know what's in there?
