Andrea took a deep breath and released it with a sigh. She hadn’t slept that well in ages. Her stomach grumbled, causing her to giggle. Bacon and eggs, with French toast will soon fix you. She scratched a small irritation on her neck and headed for the kitchen.

“Whaaat?”  Her heart hammered against her ribs. This was not their kitchen; not the kitchen their parents had renovated just before they’d disappeared. She spun around and found…nothing. The door she had come through had vanished. She was facing a blank wall.

“Simon?”

She screamed her brother’s name, “Simon!”

  4. The Twilight Zone or a dream or is there a difference?

  5. Really creepy. Of course this will be a serial.

    Creepy stuff — and I liked how you added a dose of humor with the line about bacon, eggs, and French toast fixing her. A nice balance with the fear caused by the blank wall and her screaming her brother’s name.

  8. Dear Lyn,
    You leave us with lots of questions. An intro to a larger story perhaps?
    Shalom,
    Rochelle

    That irritation, would that be where a needle had been inserted? Intriguing – well done.

Come on in and sit a spell, we can chat.
