I got the phone call late that night. It ended my life. It changed all I had planned. I had scholarships galore. More than any one person needed. After the call I was someone new. I locked myself in my mind. I did not see much reason to leave it. Inside my mind he was always with me.
"Casey, do you know where you are?"
I nodded. Of course I did. "I am in the psyche ward."
"Do you know why?"
Something…no some one in my mind laughed. 'Because she is and always will be my space case.'
I began to laugh. "I am his and you want to take him away from me."
"Whose are you?" the doctor asked.
"My loves. He lives in my head now. Ever since that night that they called."
"Who called?"
"The people at this hospital. He came to me that night. He comforted me. Like he always did before."
'Of course I did. I always did. Id never leave you…never!'
"What is his name?"
"His name? His name is what my heart screams for every night. The only name I hear. His name does not matter."
"Casey your parents are here. Can they see you?"
"Sure they can."
"Okay. I need to step out a minute and have a word with them. Then they'll be right in."
