What I'm about to tell you...
"Dada dada! Bwing home takeouts!!"
"Haha! Of course Reign! Guess what Daddy bought?"
"What is it dada!?"
"Daddy got you your favorite parmesan chicken!"
"Yay!!
"So can you put Mommy on the phone for Daddy?"
"Okay!"
Is not a Laughing matter...
"Hey honey, I'm almost home just a few more minutes away"
"Take your time and focus on driving, I don't want you getting caught in an accident."
"Don't worry I'm on speaker"
....
"Huh that's weird?"
"What's wrong honey?"
"I've always taken this path but this is the first time I'm seeing a tunnel here"
"Maybe they built it to avoid landslides?"
"Hmm... anyways our call might get disconnected, I'll be home soon so I'll talk to you later okay?"
"Okay take care honey"
.

If I knew what was gonna happen I would have stopped and turn the other way...
But there was no way of knowing that right...?
"That's weird...when did they make a tunnel this long...?"
In a few seconds a bright light shone at the end of the tunnel...
"What the heck...? I'm pretty sure it's already 7pm... So why is the sun out...?"
Confused I looked back to where the tunnel was
"It's gone...? What the..."
Everything was still the same road I traveled on the way home... Well that was until I was near the city...
"What the actual F***?"
What laid before my eyes was almost the same city I knew... Well except there was a 2nd floor like glass wall filled with buildings and cars... It was like a city built on top of another city.
"W-w-what the hell is happening...?"
"!!!"
"Wait! My phone!!"
I hurried grabbed my phone while shaking I did my absolute best to type in and call my wife's number.
"Please pick up please pick up please pick up, dear God..."

The number you dialled is incorrect. Please try again later
"Oh my God please No no no no please dear God don't do this to me"
"One more time I uhh I uhh probably made a m-m-mistake yeah that's it! No need to panic! L-lets type it slowly!!"
.
.
.
.
The number you dialled is incorrect, please try again later.
I blanked out. It's like my blood got drained out of my body, everything was moving slow or perhaps the time itself stopped
"N-n-no t-this can't be... No w-way right?..."
"They should still be home! They're most likely waiting for me at home! That's it!"
I stepped on the gas ignoring everything, all that was on my mind was just to get back home to my family as fast as possible.
"My wife probably just forgot to charge her phone! Yeah that's it! There's no other explanation! She sure gets silly from time to time! Haha!

At this point in time all I did was curse God.
Why is he making me go through all this...?
Perhaps he was mocking me...?
I never did anything wrong that would step down on other people
I made sure every decision I made would benefit everyone around me...
And yet why...?
Why is the house I painstakingly worked for
The house me and my wife dreamt of for our family...
Just why...why does it look like it's been neglected for years...?
God please if you are out there this isn't a funny joke.
Please tell me this is all just a prank...
Otherwise I might just kill myself....
End of prologue.
As the years go by in the blink of an eye.
