Pushing the experience out of my mind proved impossible.
It hung on my mind like a leech.
I'd turn down the road towards my home, and I'd be face to face with the mural, forcing me to remember that night, whether I wanted to or not.
I had come up with a few other theories since then.
Maybe they gave the paint some kind of aging treatment on purpose.
Maybe they gave the paint some kind of aging treatment on purpose.
Maybe it had been painted over the years earlier, and they had simply uncovered it, so on and so forth.
It bothered me enough that I considered going out to investigate it again, but every time I did, an uneasy feeling in my gut told me I shouldn't go there alone.
the monsoons hit the next day.
Our first storm of the year was a massive one, flooding the streets so high you could have sailed a boat through them, only to be shipwrecked by the violent wind and rain a few minutes later.
While taking one of two detours on my way home from work, I passed by a few stretches of road populated by beached cars and
their passengers wading through the water towards any building that might give them shelter until it passed.
The gutters were flooded, and I had a feeling the wash would be in a similar state.
The drive home was stressful, but I eventually found my way back to the neighborhood.
I saw the big yellow dead end sign and, with a sigh of relief, made the final turn towards my home.
I stomped on the brake.
The car screeched to a halt.
I froze, knuckles white around the steering wheel, staring straight ahead of me without blinking.
The mural had changed.
All of the warm colors had been sucked out of it.
