I open the door with a quiet creak and witness this pristine room. I'm always blown away by how empty this place. Aside from dolls, a bed, and work-related materials there’s nothing in here. 169Please respect copyright.PENANAnqM9zN29S1

I spit those words out onto the face reflected in the mirror. The short, pudgy-faced murderer with nice eyes.

I won’t have to look at this face much longer. I turn away from this old me and face an uncertain future.

I go downstairs where mom and Alyson are waiting. I sit down and begin eating. It’s been so long since we ate together but I can’t fully get into it.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAwufWgYt4go
169Please respect copyright.PENANAYcRhNemT4v
The food doesn’t taste as good as it should and I can’t look at mom. Mom…she looked so happy to be together for once. But now I can’t enjoy the smile that drew out mine.

I flinch from the onslaught of memories while Alyson looks at me.

Alyson: “…Not really. I’m still at the top of the school and Nao is still Nao. Nothing changed.”

Alyson scarfed down her food and left us alone in the living room.

No, just like with the bullies I refuse to add stress to her. I’ll handle this alone. But maybe one small question won’t hurt.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA1szboJD2B7

That’s all I could take of her warmth. I left back to my room and flopped on the bed.
