Living with the Consequences

Waking up to the sound of an explosion just outside my window, I immediately feel my heart thumping in my chest. Looking around, the darkness in the room is expected as I made it a point to have curtains that seem to consume any light that hits it.

Suddenly there was a pulling sensation from within my body, it felt very unsettling and I started to panic. Unlocking my phone I immediately try to call for help however it was in vain because as soon as I hit the call button.....
