Chapter 46: Nora

Feeling his arms cradling me as he carried me into his apartment was fantastic. I felt so safe and cared for. “Lights on,” he said out loud as we were finally all the way inside. The lights blinked on bathing the entire place in a soft warm yellow light. He carried me into a giant room with a giant comfy couch. He placed me gently on the couch and handed me a shiny plastic remote. “Here, it’s for the TV, I have to do a couple of things but I’ll be right back” he kissed me on the forehead and vanished into the depths of his apartment. I looked up at the wall and came face to face with the largest TV I had ever seen. I clicked the power button on the remote and it lit up the room with its harsh loading screen.
