After 15 minutes, I finished my dinner and the remaining portion of a movie I had on Netflix. My eyes drooped from the powerful flashes of the TV scre...n. Shakily, I was dragging myself to bed when suddenly a silver outline on the couch in the living room caught my eye. Before I could even investigate, the lamp on the small table next to the couch flashed on. "You're late," a voice spat at me with such a cold tone. "Craig?"
