I am halfway under the water. This freezing cold water. I crawled out grabbing onto the muck and branches on the bank. I pulled myself out and lay on the ground. I took many deep breaths trying to calm myself down. I stood up, shaking. I picked up my phone which was face down. The flashlight facing the starry night sky. I shone it towards where I fell. A river. I walked the perimeter of it. It was long. It went of further than where I went. A river. A river north of the police station. A river just next to DailVille. A river I am too familiar with. I walked home. Trying to wrap my head around everything. This river was behind my house? There was no way. I made it into my house. From the dry summer heat, my clothes were already dry. I set everything down at the door and headed upstairs. Just to get in bed and sleep.
This surprised me so much. How did I not know? How did this happen.
I am yet again at a loss for words.
