Skyler pulled away from the monitor. His eyes burned through and his brain fuzzy. He couldn’t have felt worse. Skyler stretched his legs as he stood up from the old office chair. The chair he had been working in for over a decade.

Skyler was a security guard, or at least he was called one. There had been seven break-ins while Skyler was on shift. Though most thought he had been asleep on the job...
