[[>]] [[module Rate]] [[/>]] the beam glows brighter than the sun on the day when i spoke to my friend for one of the last times and i remember it was a summer afternoon and it was so hot that i thought the roads would boil like concrete and we were at a baseball game when he turned to me and said i can't believe it's been all these years and we're still hanging out like we used to back in our elementary school days and i hope we never stop and i told him not to worry and that we never would but i knew that i couldn't promise him that and sure enough after high school we started calling each other less and less until we never heard from each other except when we would bump into one another at the grocery store and spend half an hour catching up and swear that we would start reconnecting before going home and forgetting again but i still hear about him every so often and i know that he still lives around here with his wife and two children and his aging mother and i wish i could save them in some sort of teleportation machine but all i can do is hope that i'll find him somewhere in the roaring acid flames of hell and i'll be able to tell him that i'm sorry and that i did everything i could and the beam does not give. ----- it's been a few days. i left my house for the first time today since it happened. i'm just getting home from the park. in the living room, my wife is playing with our two daughters. they grin and giggle as she moves a toy airplane through the air and makes vrooming noises. i reach for the phone.
