A Restless Night

Tick-Tock. Tick-Tock. 

Many seemed not to notice how fast time was going. 

They busily strutted about the city, some happy, some sad, some excited, and some bored. 

The sun that stayed high in the sky was going down little by little. 

And soon, a thick blanket of darkness engulfed the land. 

The bustling vehicle noises could still be heard across the many streets. 

In, out, fast, slow.

The city was quite rowdy. 

And a few hours later, the bustling street became more and more desolate. 

Occasionally, there would be some noise, but not disturbing.

And with a busy day ahead of many, they decided to turn in for the night.

1:15 A.M. 

--Within the Private Residential Community--

Though street lights were strategically placed within the secluded residential unity, many blind spots still existed. 

And even the moon's faint bluish hue wasn't enough to fully illuminate them.
