August, 2014.
Sometimes she couldn't sleep… It was the energy in the walls. It hummed and buzzed like a hive, like it was alive. It even reacted to the planet’s magnetic field. The drone was maddening - ask someone to sleep next to the refrigerator... see what they say.
One thing brought relief; another bath, another hair dryer clumsily placed too close - another near miss. There Lorna stood, just outside the tub, dyer nowhere to been seen. As the gathering electricity sparked in the water, it traveled over her shield. Tonight, she’d join the hum – tomorrow she’d buy Blink a dryer.
