    “Catching Tomorrow”           A narrow beam of early spring sunlight found its way through a gap in the window blinds and when Matt rolled over in bed it hit him in the face. He put his hand over his eyes and let out a long sigh. “Well,” he thought, “daylight savings time or not, if I have to lose an hour of sleep I’m glad it’s on a Sunday.” He laid there staring at the ceiling for a few minutes and finally got out of bed.           He’d been porced for only a few weeks but already had his new morning routine down pat.

    Sofie woke up to darkness. It was as if obsidian and coal had clasped hands around her, fingers brushing her face and hair. Confusion sketched itself on her face as she groped around on top of the nightstand for her phone. The screen eerily illuminated her face, instantly painting the room a neon blue. The time flashewww.onedoor.ccd across the screen, and the sight of it ignited a fiery gasp that left Sofie's throat stinging. The phone slipped from her hands, the light of the screen sinking lower and lower until it hit the floor with a soft thud. It was 9:30 A.M. The peculiarity of the morning darkness fro...ygvone door
