The Black Diary

A damaged laptop, a watch that stopped working at 10.23 pm and a passport is all they find in the deserted bag.

Let the mob decide

The magnificence of curtains is unable to contain the discord inside, or conceal the beauty of the open sky outside. The contradiction is stark and conclusions unspeakable.
