The End of the World

I've waited up all night, but finally he's left the house and when he did the note on the front door stopped him dead in his tracks. He paused staring at it for a minute or two. It was hard to be sure he was comprehending what he was seeing, but he was at least seeing it. He even looked over his shoulder at some point. Eventually he tore the note down and went back inside.

After a few minutes he returned and stuck another note to the front of the door. Although it didn't stick and just fell to porch, he clearly understood the note and has left some sort of response. There's no way it would be safe to retrieve it right now, I'll most likely have to wait until dark for it to be safe... But I can hardly wait.
