Fair is fair. I make rules. You make rules. Fair is fair. But don't be rude. Watch the pronouns. They get you in trouble. It's rude to say us. There is no us. You are me. I am you. Not us. I. Me. Never us.
I slept. Last night I slept. I meant to go out. I wanted to go out. But he was there. Watching. Waiting. Waiting. Watching. I didn't try to leave. I got a glass of water. I went back to bed. I slept. Sorry I ignored you. You kept your word. He didn't. I shouldn't have punished you. Should I have punished him? He was the one who lied.
Still, he didn't know. You and I are the same. Only you think we are different. I know better. I know better than both of you. You thought it had to do with the night. You know better now. It has nothing to do with the night. You can sleep in the day. You can dream in the day.
You didn't mean to sleep, did you? You were reading, weren't you? But it wasn't enough to keep your eyes from sliding close. You sleep. I wake. That's how it works. And no one knows. I do. You do. No one else.
I went out. The sun was bright. It burned so nicely. Then I came back. He didn't stop me. He didn't question me. He trusts you. He doesn't know to watch for me during the day. I'm you. You're me. He couldn't tell. He didn't know.
You shouldn't tell him. If you tell him, he'll know. You don't want to do that. If you do, there will be consequences. There are always consequences of sin. But don't worry, I'll help you bear the burden. I'll answer your questions.
What do you want to know?
