Chapter 1: What is the premise of the story?
The story. Maybe both.
What would happen if you just...
If I had a violent diarrhea in my pants, I would show the audience. I would show you the back of my legs and everything. Okay. But I want to, I want to know what happens.
Okay. All right. If that, if that milk gets too bad, you need to let me know.
I'll switch to mobile and I'll, I'll record that way.
Okay. All right. Okay. i'm imagining now that like the camera's cutting back and forth between my normal setup and you like in a dark bathroom with the phone right under your chin and like you can just hear very loud toilet noises i don't want to come to that please read i hung up and sat on the floor back against the door waiting listening nothing was going on did i scare it off
She texted me she had 10 more minutes until she got to my place. Okay, finally, I stood up and unlocked the door. I stood there in silence for a while. My options were very limited. Normal people could literally look around and make out if they were alone or not. I couldn't. All I could do was listen. If whatever was there was being really still, really silent, my worst option was to feel around.
That terrified me. I've talked to others, but something similar for them was sticking their hand out in complete darkness. The thought of touching that thing made my skin crawl. The direct contact was so unbearable, so much more dangerous, but I had no choice. Because everything was silent, so I stuck my hands out. My heart raced with every step.
I wanted to keep going, but at the same time, I wanted so badly to stop and turn around. Made my way to the stairs. 14 steps back to normal. I was barefoot and the hardwood floors felt so cold, so unusual against my skin. I thought that bothered me until I stepped into something sticky. Ugh.

Chapter 2: What challenges do blind individuals face?
You said no one was there.
That brings me out a little bit.
Yeah, you said no one was there. No one. Call the police. I heard her getting downstairs. Look, I can't. Why not? Someone's definitely fucking around my house. and tell them what? that someone made your bed? placed your pan on the floor? no signs of forced entry? you didn't get hurt? I bumped into something in the middle of the night? in the dark?
how unusual okay well someone was definitely there look there's not much I can do I've checked everything you're pretty safe you have no attic no basement no back door windows locked doors locked you're good I'll help you clean up and I'll get going if there's anything weird call me Okay.
I had to ask her, even though she was going to think I'm crazy.
How many steps does my staircase have? What? Count them for me. Um... 14 as usual? Okay.
Okay, for one, I want to call out Daphne's comment where she says, our author says, I bumped into something, and Daphne says, in the middle of the night, in the dark, how unusual. That was a jerk thing to say. That was very rude to be like, oh, it was dark out? How could you see?
Yeah, it seems a bit odd because it's like, well, that doesn't really matter, but I'm still under the impression, I don't know, the sister character, it just seems like it's not, well, I'm making leaps and bounds, but I'm like, it just seems odd.
I don't know. I feel like there's something up with her. I also feel like Yes, I understand. If my sister called me right now and I came over, she was like, I think someone's been here with me. Granted, my sister's not blind, of course. But I'd probably be like, have you considered the possibility that you're stupid? Have you considered not being dumb? Have you ever thought of that?
