An unknown memory. Lost, yet, not forgotten. |
The light of a new day was approaching. Where am I? I looked around and noticed I had walked all night on an unknown highway. In the middle of the night a dog decided to join me. At first, I picked up a branch and tried to toss it. I wanted the dog to go away, but it refused. After that, I named it Kyle. It was an all-black Shepard with blue eyes. I looked down at Kyle with a tight smile. “You don’t want to be with me. I am no good.” Kyle looked up at me, whined in protest, licked my hand and continued to walk with me. “You wouldn’t want to be with me after what I did last night.” Kyle barked. “I was out of my mind. I just lost it.” My words trailed off as I thought of last night. I frowned. I could not remember. It was all blur. All I could remember was the anger and then suddenly it all turned red. I shook my head in concern. “What happened last night?” I asked out loud. Kyle began to bark as if responding but mostly because it attempted to warn me of something behind me. I turned and my mouth dropped. I realized then, that it was not the light of a new day. The sky was lit by fire. I scoffed and rolled my eyes. Interesting. I thought. They deserved it! I felt the anger rise. It may all be a blur but I knew I was the cause. I was suddenly pleased. I continued my evening walk as I heard sirens blare from a distance. |
