Live It Again
“Hugh looked at the broken body and back up to the boy clinging two-hundred feet above his head, and then back to the body.
Definitely Bob, not Billy.
What about all the girls he’s meant to date in high school? Who’s going to hire me at Little City Food store now?
He couldn’t possibly die now, not at this time, not in this place.
Hugh started to gently push the boy’s body over with one sneaker. He thought how odd it was that people treat the dead so carefully, almost fearfully, as if they might ...jump back to life any second. Bob was lying face down in the wet sand and gravel, his head somehow folded up into his chest. Hugh wanted to be sure it was still attached.
He backed away suddenly, the shoulder slumped back down. No, there was no point in seeing anymore. There would be enough nightmares to come. Why make it worse?
I just wanted to prevent a tragedy. I never meant to be the cause of another one.
He wiped the cooling droplets of blood away from his face with the sleeves of his shirt, mindful not to touch any with his hands.MoreLess
