After
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQtxpdKknH
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.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPvsjI4YIs
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslTbePxMgQ
A sick feeling fills my stomach and throat, and I wonder if I'm going to throw up.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPXEEc4P46
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6zq9gQe7t
But then I hear it.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFhmZKV05P
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkHJVXVF1y
The vibration.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNueacvyVcd
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliEmuYWKtW
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.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLjiIcifmQ
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUA5yLt9QO
Where are you?437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfmEV3HRr8
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhu91rl5V3d
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.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDY6BZtKnt
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruEsS7QFAr
It's blood.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhCdWvoTwL
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkdVdrGPx8
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.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IU7onCOWe
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6haBLF3nH
I want to hide.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfLp4qCTEJ
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohTUl8pGRr
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.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bJpxyVpC7
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo73B6diTn5
I shouldn't have gotten behind the wheel.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3Oqz7hTAg
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlOPL8LzMU
The droplets of blood form a trail now, that stretches along the fork in the road.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Hex17D3jG

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.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSx6MODHKBL
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQ49DxbW6p
What if he's someone I know?437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdE9fccWmgc
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJjFB5zYjs
That thought fills me with dread.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmox7wYLN47
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxxhxTmR6g
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.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ130iln1veD
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWo1Jaxf7K
He's dead.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe38qdPIFOa
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKSW3JcwjC
I kneel down in the snow, and the cold crawls up my body, but I barely feel it.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYVjR2epGz
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXssaY1Mxco
I close my eyes, and the wind howls in my ears.437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLeW3HXoDO
437Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPphtYHxDxQ
It whispers killer to me.
