The warmth of Kato's body right next to mine reminds me of home in my soft silk duvet that i slip under at night.
my head rests against his shoulder, i feel safe with kato, but does he even like me? of course he does, i mean seriously im flawless! i nod off to sleep thinking i'm gonna win this, i have to.
i sleep right through the night. sleeping on cold dirt & leaves wasnt that bad, i hear a light sawing noise it must be kato getting some wood for a fire. "KATO! go back to sleep" i groan.
im right here he says back.
i open my eyes and see a pale yellow wasp nest coming right at my face, i have no time to get up and run before the impact of the nest hits the ground and burst open.
the screams fill my ears as i try to escape but its no use they've got me, i yell for help "KATO! KATO!" i fall to the ground the pain is excruciating i black out for a bit, and then i see him.
jeremiah, i see the 7 year old glimmer too reaching to grab her brother "STOP! STOP!'' she yells,
but they keep on dragging him away,she follows, her pitiful cries making no difference, they bring him to an alley where she sees the most haunting experience of her life.
BANG! its over.. for both of us
