A week had passed.

A very emotionally exhausting week.

Lumine's mother would come into his room, trying to make him leave.

"Why are you here." Lumine stated, obviously not wanting her company.

Giselle smiled, "Can a mother not see her s-"

"You're not my mother."

Giselle dropped her fake smile, and rolled her eyes. "Whatever." She walked towards Lumine. "Come with me, I need to show you something."

"No." He retaliated.

He refused. She began getting physical, beating him until he was unconscious. Unfortunately, that wasn't her only attempt.

Giselle smiled. She opened the door, and beckoned Lumine to go.

He walked through.

Of course, he bled. Kody grunted as his skin was torn apart once again.

He waited for something.

He was waiting for the pain in his mind to be overtaken by the pain of his wrists.

That moment never came.

In anger and frustration, he threw the blood-stained knife on the floor. Tiny droplets of blood splashed on his feet.

It's not enough anymore.

As soon as he thought that, memories started resurfacing.

"I think you're perfect."

Kody regretted saying those words.

"I love you."

He regretted those, too.

"... Can I be the little spoon?"

And Lumine's adorable laugh echoed through his mind once again.

And his snow white hair.

And his beautiful blue and yellow eyes.

And his-
