"Now, there was a logical explanationg (normal typo, i've got a million of them)to this: I had dreamt the whole thing. I didn´t really break the TV. It was all a dream. I searched the floor with my eyes. My hoodie. On the floor. Where I had tossed it after wiping off the glass splinters." this confused me....and, it was probably meant to. obviously him smashing the T.V. was not a dream, being that the hoodie provides evidence to support that.
now, this makes the appearance of the new TV mean one of two things.
1.) the "tormentors" are very detail-oriented and agile, being able to clean up every sliver of glass in a very limited amount of time.
or
2.) the "supernatural" aspect of this story is about to unfold.
i'm rooting for the later.
again, there are many "quote-ables" (i actually made up this term to describe sentences/instances in stories that describe to real feelings and emotions better than i ever could) in this chapter. for example:
1.)"It is a peculiar thing that if you try very hard to focus on your respiration you inevitably hold your breath for some reason."
2.) “I longed for the comforting feeling of floating supernatantly through a world devoid of time, space and most of all, pressure.”
i really have to go back to work now. hey, you want to know something funny? i just got paid 8 dollars to read and review your story. ha.
a “p.s.” in the form of me being a douche bag : i’m not sure, but i think supernatant is a word that isn’t commonly used with an adjective suffix like “-ly”, same thing with fulgurous. i’m not sure, i have to look that up a little bit better when i get home.
anyway, much love on this one. i really need to work now.

God, me and typos (typos and I). I´ll correct that soon - just kind of in a hurry now, but can´t help but reply to your awesome review. Thanks for engaging so strongly in the plot. I feel flattered that you´re really thinking about the different explanations/ circumstances. :) I wasn´t sure about the -ly thing either, but I didn´t dare to disagree with Katy because she wanted to hurt me for swearing already. ;) P.S.: I wanna see some of the 8 bucks... :P
