Andy knew he should’ve left the concert a few minutes early in order to avoid the fray. Woulda, shoulda, coulda …
This was a nasty bunch too. Everyone around him seemed to be high on something. It wasn’t that silly, happy-go-lucky kind of high that weed affords. No, this was a different kind of “high” that was making people angry and sweaty. When he looked in their eyes, he received a blank stare in return. It was as if the part that made them human had gotten lost.
Andy’s fight or flight response kicked in, but he couldn’t move, which made him really start to panic. He tried to control his breathing, but it was no good. He failed to avert the hyperventilation that came next. It was a bad one. He couldn’t catch his breath, and it seemed as though there wasn’t enough air to breathe anyway. So many people pushing, shoving, yelling, sweating and stinking. The world started spinning and the floor suddenly jumped up to meet his face. All Andy could see were dirty running shoes and dangerous-looking boots. They were stepping on him now, and didn’t seem to realize it. Or maybe they didn’t care.
Eventually, the concert venue cleared out and they found Andy’s body. It took them a while to identify him though.
Whatcha think?
