Ohio Strangeness

Date: 2/19/2023

My parents had moved to a small town in Ohio on the Indiana border, and I went with them from Arkansas. They were living in a huge house with a large swimming pool. I decided to go for a walk. I ended up at a weird house that was on stilts. I went up the stairs. Eric was there. He kinda freaked out when he saw me, then got happy and asked why I wasn't in Arkansas. I explained that my parents had moved here. He asked if I liked the cool weather, I said yes, but it's difficult to swim in. His old computer was there. I decided I'd go back to my parents. There was a black woman with a little boy outside, and it was a beach on the ocean. I asked who this woman was, she said she was Eric's wife. I went back to the house. My mom said she needed to go to a restaurant, but she wanted to go alone and she wanted us to pick her up in an hour. I said okay, I need to get a new phone, so we'll meet you there. My dad and I left, and went to a Radio Shack. I wanted a certain type of phone that looked like a walkie talkie. It was a special phone, and could do complicated scientific formulas. I went inside, it was totally packed. People were buying video games. It was also a restaurant, and people were ordering food. It was taking forever for a clerk to get to me. Finally, a guy did. He didn't understand what I was talking about, and said they didn't have phones, but I knew they did because the website had it. I found an Asian woman that knew what I was talking about. She got out the phone, it was weird and could do all kinds of things. She said there was a woman who wanted to meet me, her name was Sarah Miller and she was a girlfriend of Eric's. The woman didn't look familiar at all. It was starting to get dark outside. The woman warned me that the phone drops a lot of calls during full moon and solar storms. I said it was okay. She got out the box and started adding everything up. She got out this old Nokia phone and told me to swipe my credit card through it. I went looking through my purse, and I couldn't find my card. I ran outside to find my parents car. It had gotten dark. The parking lot was packed with cars. I couldn't find the car. Finally, I did find it. I asked my dad if he had my card. He started looking all over for it, but couldn't find it. I dug out my purse again and finally found it. My dad asked if I had eaten, I said no. He said I better hurry because mom would get mad we were late. I said screw her, she can wait. I went back inside and paid for the phone. I asked how long it would take for a burger, the woman said two hours. I decided to leave. I walked out and couldn't find the car because of how dark it was.
