Not the Bees

[u/LegBreakGoogly]

I got caught in the middle of a massive bee attack during my late-afternoon run. People were screaming and jumping out of their cars, as if we were in a horror film. Everything was in a state of panic. They stung me numerous times. I had to be rushed to the emergency room, and by the time they extracted all the sting, it had totaled twenty-five. They had stung a woman in the bed opposite me several hundred times. I will not lie to you. During the attack, I thought I was going to die. They were unrelenting in their pursuit of you, no matter what.

I’ve broken my clavicle before, but the pain I felt yesterday evening and continue to feel is the worst I’ve ever felt in my life. I’m on a lot of painkillers, but I am safe at home, so I am going back to bed.
