My dad thinks I'm strange because of it but I don't care, ever since I erased Robin's memory I've slept with the light on.
I've been following the same routine every night, every single night no matter what. Always the same routine. It makes me feel safe, secure. Even Zultan's worried but that doesn't change a thing. Always the same routine, every night without fail.
I always make sure I have the necklace tied around my neck, his necklace, Robins necklace. It was his favourite one, he left it behind the day I lost him. I never liked it but I worry when it's not there…you can probably see why people are starting worry now, can't you?...
Next I make sure the lights are on, they normally are by now but I make sure all the same. I always have a maximum of 2 on to ensure a slight glow. Not too dark, not too light. Just the way I like it.
And lastly before I get into bed I look at my bedside table, at the photo frame I put there. It always has the same picture in it but never stops putting a smile on my face. It's me and him, me and Robin laughing. What we were laughing at I can't remember, but we both look so happy, like nothing in the world could bring us down. I love that photo because of the memories it provokes, and the hope that I may be able to get him back…I know that the chance of that happening is slim, but I can hope right?
Sleeping with the light on...what's wrong with that?
