The moment my life ends plays over and over and over before my eyes...
Maybe I can be with Haru again, now. We'll be monsters together, or ghosts, or whatever the hell happened when he died before our eyes...
There it goes again.
Again.
Again.
My head rolls over and over...
Then, it stops.
Did you know loneliness can increase early mortality by 26%?
I look down at my hands... but they're not there.
Did you know loneliness is contagious?
I glance up and find Enkai and Hana working, rebuilding the planks on the window Haru broke.
Did you know social isolation can affect your immune system?
I reach out to grab them, to say something, but when I position my hands to touch them, I can feel them go straight through.
Did you know being alone for too long can increase blood pressure from stress?
I scream their names, but no one answers.
Alone.
I fall to my knees. "Please... I don't... wanna be alone..."
Silence.
