One evening, after staying late at the office, she stepped onto the street and immediately felt something was off. The usual lamppost that marked the corner of her route was gone. In its place, there was a narrow alley she had never noticed before, dark and twisting. She frowned, thinking it must be exhaustion playing tricks on her eyes.
