It’s cold. Also dark. Your legs are caught in twisted sheets. You’re awake, but not. You try untangling yourself.

Suddenly you’re toppling over the edge. The fall seems endless. You were pushed.

Who?

You look up.

The hands that shoved you and the eyes looking into yours are your own.

Author's Note:

I wrote a trio of second person micros that are distinct stories but connected in their thematic progression. If you're interested, check out the other two linked below:

1. The Fall

2. The Wait

3. The Hope
