Tyler was sitting at the bar in the Grill, having a beer. “Aren’t you supposed to tell me I shouldn’t drink this time of day?” he said. Ronnie was cleaning glasses. “No, actually I was going to reproach you for not buying me one”
“Please, be my guest” Tyler said waving his hand. “Thank you” Ronnie said. She opened the fridge and got herself a beer which she opened with a spoon. She took a sip.
“I haven’t seen you around here” Tyler said. “When did you get here?”
“About a week ago” Ronnie said. “My friend died. I’m here for the funeral”
“I’m sorry to hear that” Tyler said. “How did she die? If I may ask, of course”
Ronnie looked down. “She was murdered…in a way you can’t imagine. I threw up when I saw her body, it was so awful”
“I’m sorry” Tyler repeated.
“It’s fine” Ronnie replied. The door opened and she saw Caroline coming in. “Your girlfriend’s here”
Tyler looked around. “Oh, that’s Caroline” he said. “She’s not my girlfriend”
Ronnie saw how a disappointed and hurt expression appeared on Caroline’s face and Caroline disappeared. Ronnie took a small notebook and wrote down Caroline’s name.

Elena took a deep breath and started running down the hill. However, the grass on the hill started growing really fast and pushed Elena back. Elena angry pushed the grass away and came halfway the hill.
Then the earth started shaking and Elena rolled down.
The road that led to the open field cracked open and Elena’s feet got stuck in one of the cracks.
“Ha, damn it!” she cursed and she pulled her leg, but she couldn’t move it. The crack grew bigger and soon she fell in a whole. A deep one.
She looked up and saw how the crack slowly closed again.
“Elena”
Elena grabbed the wall which was raw and cut her hands open, but she didn’t care. With a fierce determination she climbed up and out of the crack. She crawled away from the crack, dodged the other cracks and reached the open field.
