ABOUT

Hi, I'm [Tyler], and this is all about trying to get along with my roommate!

Edit: It isn't going well. This is the only place that keeps everything up to date in real-time. My phone may be compromised, so this is the best way to keep track of everything. In case he comes back.

Touch and go

Sam walks in late tonight.

I touch his hand. Cold and rougher than skin. It hurts. I pull away and he pushes past me to his bedroom.

He doesn't even notice me.

I see Brandon and Finn walk back to their room a few hours later. The two of them seem calm. They get along. They don't ignore each other. That's not really the problem.

If Sam doesn't yell, everything is fine.

Everything is not fine.

Sam is upset. I notice it first. I don't know why. He walks around. I try to get out of his way.

Then I hear his footsteps. Squish. Squish. Wet.

Sam, please stop for a second.

He keeps going.

Please, Sam.

He's almost to the bedroom.

Hey, asshole!

He turns to me, low and scowling.

I ask if he hears himself.

He looks down.

"Holy—"

Yeah.

"Does that mean I'm—"

I don't know.

"Well, we gotta try this out. So we know for sure."

No.

"Don't you want to see if this is what we think it is."

Of course I do. I always like knowing I'm right.

He pauses.

I don't know if I'm safe in here anymore.
But...

Because I am right. And you know it, don't you? You think a flood showed up out of nowhere and ruined our whole room.

He lurches towards me, scowling.

I said it before. I say it again now. That's impossible.

He screams at me.

Water fills the room up to our ankles.

That's the last thing I remember from last night.
