Summer Sky
“I’m still alive, so it seems unlikely Dylan Morgan is a serial killer even though he shares the same initial and surname as a fictional one.
We missed each other for the rest of the day yesterday. My rest turned into several hours, and the house was quiet when I woke up at 10pm. Downstairs, half a pizza sat on the table with a note from Dylan informing me he’d eaten and gone for a walk. Then this note was crossed out and he’d written he’d gone to bed beneath. Half asleep, I munched on the cold pizza considering the strange domesticity of this arrangement, and how I didn’t imagine rock stars (or whatever he is) went to bed so early. My phone beckoned me towards googling him, but I resisted. Bubble walls are very thin.
This morning, Dylan’s bedroom door is open, bedding scrunched into a pile. He’s not downstairs but a dirty bowl rests in the sink. No bacon sandwiches this morning then. I sit and eat toast, in the silence of the house I came to be alone in, a house with an unwant...ed emptiness without Dylan, the man who shares my summer memories.MoreLess
