Abstract

He was coming for me. It was just a matter of time. I listened for his footsteps, but the deafening beat of my heart and the oddly healthy 30-year-old shag carpet stymied my efforts. My time was running out, a fact that fed my anxiety. My movements became more frantic, my sweating more profound. I was drenched from scalp to soles, with no clothing to soak up the stress.
