some days you listen to someone dying on the phone and know you can’t do anything to help them.

other days you listen as their loved one tries to breath life back into them, knowing that it won’t help because they’re already gone.

some days you listen to the grief and anguish of losing someone and all you can do is be there and listen to them cry.

Short Story Saturdays: Post #3 – Voices in the Static

It began just after 2 a.m. A low hiss through her headset. Then—words. “…help… trapped…” She sat up straight. “This is 911, what’s your emergency?” “…they won’t let me out… basement… can’t breathe…” The line cut out. No number.…
