Tar: An Apocalyptic Horror Novella - Plot & Excerpts
With the rate the clouds were passing it probably meant just a brief shower, but still enough to dampen the evening. As the first few drops hit the windshield, Sarah Miller felt like a little girl on Christmas morning. Ironic. The girl that hated rain welcomed it like a gift from Santa. At times mortal enemies can be allies and for Sarah this sudden shower was a lifesaver. Ben Skyles, Sarah's boyfriend, had tricked her into going to the county fair. Tricked was too harsh a word. More like begged and pleaded until Sarah caved. For Ben, fairs were an extension of his childhood — a happy time when his family was still whole. A time before cancer took his mother away. A time before Ben's father lost his way in the bottom of whisky bottle. But for Sarah, county fairs meant rides that mocked regulations and deep-fried food loaded with bacteria that even a nuclear bomb couldn't wipe out. Sarah knew how much the memories meant to Ben. Going to the fair with him was the least she could do after he stuck it out with her through the "cocktail" phase.
