Clang!

The Chef’s knife slips from my hand and hits the white tile flooring.

I stare at the scene before me. It’s everywhere—So many people.

Then I look down at my hands—So much blood.

I feel it staining my skin—Staining my soul.

What happened? What did I do?

The last thing I remember was walking into the bathroom and turning on the faucet for the white tub.

This is bad.

What am I gonna do? I don’t have the cleaning supplies I need. And there’s no way in hell I’m letting the police catch me.

Spotting my phone, I scroll through my contacts until I find the number. The number I prayed I wouldn’t have to use again.

I press Dial.
