Agreed. I really like the last line. It captures the notion of fear succinctly and leaves the reader with a lingering feeling of emptiness. Good job!

Well read, Jae.

Is that what the author intended, I wonder? Good job in any case.

Choppiness as demanded by the limit but still a good job suggesting a much larger narrative and situation in 24 words.
