part four: missing in action.

you dragged your feet along the pavement in the city, your eyes fixed on the stone path as you walked towards your apartment.

you could hear the wind rushing past you as you continued to walk closer to your home. you pushed your way through the crowds of people, apologising quietly every second due to the space. you rubbed your arms with your hands to warm your cold skin, goosebumps covered the exposed area along your arms.

you could your apartment building in the distance but it wasn't what it looked like before.
"what happened?"
you said to yourself as you looked at the run down, brick building. the windows were smashed and graffiti covered the red bricks.

you walk inside, the place looked a mess and cobwebs formed around the corners of the room.
you stepped closer towards the wooden stairs and placed your foot on the creaky step. you started to walk up the steps one by one, carefully avoiding the holes that dotted around the wood.

you arrived at your apartment door and slowly opened the door, tons of unopened letters covered the floor as you walked in. you stepped over all the letters and stood in the middle of your living room, looking around at the place.

you walked back over to the pile of letters, picking up one that was from your mother. you peeled open the envelope to find a key and a long, handwritten letter.

dear y/n

i heard about what happened to you, but i can't make it back to central city. the key is for your new apartment, i'll be in central city soon but not for a while. tell me when you're awake and i'll come visit as soon as possible.

your apartment is close to the police station because i asked an officer to look after you when you wake up. his name is joe west, he has two children, barry and iris. be nice to him because he is going to help you and his son also was in a coma with you.

i'm sorry I couldn't be there
your mother.

you stared at the letter with tears in your eyes before you phone started to vibrate in your pocket.
