Bloodborn (2013)
“Dad snores like a bulldozer on the couch, the laugh track on the TV too loud. He won’t check my room to see if I’m gone. I know. I’ve snuck out before, and done far worse things.
I bypass the truck and wheel my bike out from behind the garage. My legs itch with unspent energy. I pedal hard, until my muscles burn and the whistling wind stings my eyes. Down in the valley, fog overflows from the river and spills over the sleeping fields. The thick wet air tickles my throat, scented with river ...mud, wet grass, ripening corn, and the roast beef of a recent dinner trickling from a window.
My stomach growls. I yank an energy bar from my pocket and stuff it, whole, into my mouth. There. Shut up. You’re not hungry anymore.
Bob’s Corn Maze stands beside a backwater pond in the poplars. The spicy honey smell of the trees mingles with woodsmoke. The fog, thinner here, glows in the flickering yellow of a nearby bonfire.MoreLess
