In the dark room, Sam’s phone blinked one percent. He felt the wall outlet, then the small outlet behind the bed, and the outlet under the desk before finding an outlet near the lamp. The cord snagged, but he reached the third outlet on a power strip and plugged in the charger. Light eased the worry; he laughed.
