I stood there frozen for what felt like several minutes. I felt like it had to be obvious to them all, the humans on both sides of the picket line, Devon and his police force, Lara and the reporters, Reece and the others that were here with me. However, none of them seemed to have noticed anything at all. No one was even paying attention to the time that had passed. Or had that much time actually passed? Was it all in my head? What was going on here?
That sound, the one of the semi trucks that were in the distance, traveling throughout the city, seemed to be getting louder and louder. It was such a normal and everyday sound, one that I was used to hearing when I was down in the city like this, but right now, it just seemed to be more ominous than it was supposed to be.
Finally, I was able to make my voice work. I looked at Reece and whispered the words, that small sound had been all that I was able to force out.
