A short story about a mans journey into the realm of the unknown. This is a first person view of the events that took place within a period of two days. Let your imagination go as you read about what happened "THE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY!
I woke up this morning with a major headach, I don’t have a clue about what happened last night, all I know is I have two different socks on, my shirt is on inside out, and I’m using my shoe for a pillow, wait a minute….I’m not even in my bed….where the hell am I, this isn’t even my house! I headed out the front door, I’ve never felt this bad before, I don’t remember drinking anything last night, what did I do?
The sun it so bright it hurts my eyes, I wish I had my sunglasses, they’re in my jacket which is sitting in my car, I have no idea where my car is either….damn. I don’t know what I’m doing in Bellingham, I don’t know how I got here without my car, I have to walk all the way to MIlford, this is going to be a long day, I feel like crap…what happened last night?
“Huh”??? What’s that noise…..where am I now, I’m so dizzy….those lights…so bright, it’s so loud, “What’s happening to me”? Get off me, let go of me, who are you, what are you doing to me….”HELP….GET ME OUTTS HERE….WHO ARE YOU”….STOP, STOP”!
Maybe I should just do some hitch hiking, I haven’t done that since I was a teen, this outta be a blast… Isn’t anyone gonna stop, this is crazy….finally, this guy’s stopping, he looks kind of strange, his eyes, I guess I look strange to him too…I need to just get in the car and shut the hell up! Why is this guy asking so many stupid questions, I have no idea what he’s talking about….I didn’t hear any explosion last night, why did he ask me that…hell, I didn’t hear anything at all, if I did I probably wouldn’t even remember it, my head is killing me, I need some tylenol….and a nice cold glass of water, my mouth is so darn dry, what happened to me, I can’t remember anything. I wonder where everyone is, it’s a beautiful sunny day and nobody is out…what’s going on, it looks like all the stores are closed….hmmmm.
I thought I’d never get to Milford, that guy drove like an old lady in a snowstorm! Now what do I do, should I go to Dave’s place, maybe he can tell me what happened last night, maybe he knows what happened to my car….where the hell is he, I’ve been banging on his door for ten minutes, screw it, I’ll just go in….where is everyone??? This place is usually jumpin with people, where’s Dave, what’s going on here…”HELLO, ANYONE HERE?” He’s not here, I’ll just keep going, I’ll run into sombody eventually.
It’s almost midnight, I’ve been wandering around the streets all day and night, nobodys around, there isn’t a sound, this is so strange…the last person I saw was that guy who picked me up, there was something strange about him, he had weird looking eyes…almost like they were hollow, very strange, I feel like I did when I was on drugs years ago. I need somplace to go for the night, there’s lights on at the bar, maybe there’s people there.
It’s empty in here like everywhere else, well, I might as well have a drink while I’m here, nobody to stop me…..Ahhhh, that feels good, that nice warm feeling from head to toe, I always did like Jack Daniels! That booth looks comfortable, I’ll just sit there and sip this Jack…..feels so peacefull now, it’s been such a confusing day, I need to just kick back and relax, think about what’s happening here, where is everyone, what happened last night….I’m so tired, so relaxed.
“Wake up Bill”….”can you hear me, wake up”….”It’s me Dave”….What happened to you”?….”There’s a doctor here Bill, he’s a psychiatrist, he’s here to help you, don’t worry, everythings going to be ok”…………”They found you in your car at the bottom of the ravine, you were in the back seat, you’re pretty banged up, there’s something odd about your eyes, they look like you can see into them, kind of hollow looking, I’m sure the doctor will check them out for you, they said you have a concusion, you also have a nasty gash on your head too, they stitched you up good so you’ll be fine. oh yeah, do you remember talking about bright lights, you also talked about a ship, you said it had blue, green, and red flashing lights….you also said they took you away, where did they take you Bill”?………you had us very concerned, when they found you they said there was someone with you, funny thing is when they got to the car there wasn’t anyone there…figure that one out. Do you remember talking to the doctor?, you told him some strange stuff, sounds like you saw a UFO, is that what you saw”?
Who are these people, that guy looks familiar but I just can’t remember who he is…..that other guy looks like a doctor, am I in a hospital? I still have a strange sound in my head, like a buzzing noise…why are those people staring at me, who the hell are they and what do they want from me, I need to get outta here, this place is creeping me out. I see that guy moving his lips but I can’t hear him through the buzzing in my head, I feel like I’m having a bad dream! I feel like I’m not in my body, The real problem is I have no idea what happened to me, I remember a few things but not much…I think I’ll just close my eyes and sleep, maybe I’ll feel better in the morning….
“Well doctor, what do you think about Bills story, pretty unbelievable isn’t it? The other thing that’s strange is that person or whatever it was in Bills car in the ravine, they said it just disappeared when they got to the car, one of the Paramedics said he saw something in the field, he said it was dark out but he was able to mnake out a saucer shaped object, that’s all he saw, the Police Officer checked it out and saw nothing. I wonder if this has anything to do with that sighting in Bellingham, there was a group of people having a get together in their backyard, they said they saw an object in the sky just hovering about a thousand feet to the East. They said it started glowing orange, a beam shot out of it towards the ground for about ten minutes before it stopped. The craft than darkened and flew away in the blink of an eye….there was a bunch of calls to 911 about it. This happened The Day Before Yesterday! Oh well, I have to go doc, I’m sure Bill will be fine, I’ll be back in the morning to see how he’s doing, have a good night”……
