​A morning drive to work

*The long and short of this was I really did go a month only getting two or three hours of sleep everyday it was torture. Well driving to work for a few days I’d seen an increase in deer crossing the road and trying to kill me lol. Anyhow one morning I thought I saw a building that had never been there and thought up a story. Thanks for reading and here you go!*

The drive was the same everyday. I would start from the house out in the fields. I’d get to the main drag to go towards the city. As I drove down my view was always the same. In the night dark with a sky full of stars and dotted lights here and there. On the horizon a cluster of lights and buildings where the city rested. Always a long drive nothing changed. In the day you could see the fields and cows. The wind turbines and the fields of solar panels. Out here you either raised animals sold your land to make electricity or drove an hour to work. One morning early as it was and dark out I saw it raise out of the depths. A building I’ve never seen before it looked like and apartment block at least 20 stories high. It was covered in lights around the top every few inches one of those wall lights jutted out and shown brightly. I could only make out the top of it as it was so far off. I knew it didn’t exist just yesterday I knew this land all of it fairly well. I drove it so often I think I would recognize the apartments in the middle of no where. It was an odd ominous spectacle to behold. Since then every morning I look off lazily to the right as I drive my long stretch and I see the building never moving and always lit. No one lives there and there seems to be few windows. It’s a foreboding sign but of what I’m not sure. As I drive I started to notice deer. I might’ve seen one, once a year jumping across the road. I see them daily and in packs the other morning I got up early hours before my usual and drove in. I saw it that morning the sight id never forget. The deer flying by as quickly as possible in a massive pack through the trees towards the building. Then out of the trees a few yards down they ran back across the road at an impossible speed to be so quick as to turn and come back only a few yards ahead as I drove at speed down the road. Back and forth they went. I stopped and they’d circle me while going back and forth. For a while I thought this must be multiple groups but I noticed the front deer oddly enough had a head that bounced like a bobble head. Its neck was snapped is what I assumed but how it was still moving as it was, well that was terrifying. I moved the car slowly ahead until the shrubby and trees broke and let me look towards the building. I’d watch as the deer passed me ran down went around the building then back. This lasted a while in the dark but as the sun broke the deer ran through the doors in the front. I swear I heard screaming or pain, maybe crying. It was rather early and I hadn’t slept right in a few months. Next in the light the build disappeared and so did anything else that would show it to be true. I realized I had never seen this sight on the way home in the afternoon. I drive in the morning now and dare not look right but I have found more deer crossing in the night. One day I might have to take a light and go climb inside but all I feel is fear and anxiety when I hear the deer.
