The Storm
Sometimes I think the storm is easier than the aftermath because it is present, easily seen by everyone who is aware of it. In the aftermath, the storm rages on every second of every day for those it directly affects, while everyone else lives normally and moves forward with ease. And when the storm is mentioned by the front runners, when the memory of it resurfaces because the front runners cannot hold in the pain anymore, it becomes an issue for everyone else. What is there to say? Why can't you simply move on? Because it was never that simple in the first place. Because the memories don't stop, and it feels like there is nothing to move forward towards. The storm changed everything, making even the survivors feel lost.
