Pulled Along with the Mess

Nancy and Haru had no clue what was going on. They walked into this apartment during a storm and now they couldn’t leave. Now, they didn’t know what to do. Haru squeezed Nancy’s hand. His girlfriend turned her head. For some reason, they didn’t speak. It wasn’t that they couldn’t. They just hadn’t tried. The couple knew that they couldn’t stay here. But how were they going to get out of here?

“Haru…” she began to say. Her boyfriend turned his head. Nancy closed her mouth. She was going to say something but lost her thought. So many eyes were on them. The couple probably shouldn’t have been there. They would have to be dealt with later.

“What’s going on here?” Nancy mouthed at her boyfriend. He shook his head. There would be occasional chatter but it didn’t last long. None of it made any sense. One of the women in the circle looked up at them. The couple froze as they waited for what was going to happen next.

What should they do with these interlopers? The angels haven’t figured out the answer to that yet. They couldn’t worry about them now, but they needed to be dealt with.

Who are they?

I don’t know.

They can’t stay here.

We know!

So what are we going to do?

We have to focus on this right now. We can’t have them both lost in that place forever. They are going to need a pathway back.

I know that. But who the hell are they? The angels all looked up at the couple in the room. They stared back at them. No one dared to say a word.

Meanwhile, the storm got harder. The rest of the town didn’t notice a thing. The typhoon had already passed by. No one thought to take a look at that odd rundown apartment outside of town. It just looked normal on the outside. It’s hard to say how long that was going to stay. Was it going to spread to the rest of the town?

It all started with Haru and Nancy. Even they don’t know how much they will be affected. For now, they were busy trying to figure out what to do next and how to get out of this. As far as the couple knew, it was going to take a while. It’s kind of a shame that they are running out of that too.
