  1. And I just heard a muffled noise somewhere. Or was it a distant thunder?
  2. I'm starting to think that this isn't the place I'm supposed to be.
  3. I look outside, but the rain washing against the windowpane makes everything blurry and distorted. I must admit I'm getting quite nervous.
  4. The light from the streetlamps comes in, and suddenly the room seems alive with shadows.
  5. My eyes slowly get accustomed to the absence of artificial light. I move towards the living-room windows and open the shutters.
  6. The already dim light from the desk lamp goes out. Quietly and eerily.
  7. The furniture must have been moved; I'm fairly sure there wasn't a bookcase in this part of the room before.
  8. It's too dark and deceptive here. I must find the switch.
  9. I used to know her place. But it’s been a while, and these rooms in the night look different, feel different.
  10. "Go outside and smell the lilacs" -- Her voice from a distant memory, a distant season, now suddenly here. In this damp darkness.
  11. I used to know her place. But it's been a while. There's something that does feel wrong here.
  12. The car, inside, smelt of cold smoke and flashbacks. I closed my eyes and I saw the face of my headache.
  13. I was slightly dizzy. Out of the house, the umbrella was basically useless. Reaching the parked car was a struggle.
  14. It had been a long time, but I had to go. The rain was pouring impossibly.
  15. A sense of urgency. She mentioned a 'situation'. That was the word she used. Then other effectual words to summon me.
  16. Her voice sounded strange on the phone. Yes -- yes, there was a phone call at some point.
  17. What happened? That's what I want to know. What I want to remember.
  18. I was never afraid of thunders and lightnings when I was little. But my sister was.
  19. It must be the study. There is a violent rainstorm outside and the lamp’s bulb flickers.
  20. I am in a poorly lit room. The only light comes from a desk lamp.
