The Day I Chose The Dark

Summary

The company had a bizarre rule.

The last person to leave at night had to shout: "I'm turning off the lights!"

Then, they had to wait for ten minutes before they could actually flip the switch and go.

If they didn't, they would simply vanish.

My sister, Skylar, had scoffed at the rule.

Until one day, she worked until two in the morning, the only one left in the office.

Anxious to get home, she flipped the switch and left immediately, skipping the ten-minute wait.

She has been gone ever since.
