He drove past the building, a cold, empty feeling creeping through him. The windows were boarded up. Empty. Deserted. He clenched his jaw, feeling a rush of…resentment? No. Something more than that. Betrayal.

He pulled over to the side of the road, staring at the shuttered building. He felt a need to scream, to lash out. He wanted to undo what had happened.
