I woke up, noticing how oddly quiet the house was. There was no roar of street noise, no blaring alarm. Just the calm country quiet. I found it a little unsettling. Wasn’t there such thing as too much quiet?
That's how I felt when we first moved up from the suburban-city to the middle of nowhere. I couldn't stand the quiet-- and then there were so many birds in the spring! They just wouldn't shut up... Regardless, I'm used to it now.
Great start! I'm so excited for this story to unfold and I do hope something happens... which I'm assuming it will. Love the title as well.
