This simple sentence packs a lot of tension, it really speaks to the kind of eerie stillness that feels like the calm before a storm.

It’s a powerful moment where the uncertainty and fear of what’s about to unfold become palpable.

The reader is left holding their breath, I know I was, just like the characters in the story.

It's a relatable feeling, when you're faced with a situation that's gone beyond your control and you can only wait for something to break.

Your ability to build suspense here is fantastic, and it’s something every writer can learn from.

It’s these moments of quiet tension that make the eventual chaos hit even harder.

And I really enjoyed the images too!
