"emit dednecsnart evah uoy" a voice whispered as Imerali fell… through time.
Imerali awoke in a dark alley.
"Dammit jack you sold me shit!" Imerali muttered under his breath. A girl walked by as he said this and turned to see who was there.
"Who's there?" she said.
"I am." Replied Imerali
Imerali stood up.
"Hi."
"Go. Away. Now."
"What's your deal?"
"Girls."
"Sexist."
"Nope. One day I asked out a girl she turned me down and laughed me out. Of school. For the day at least. That's all I know of girls. Now I hate and fear t-h-e-m" he choked up on the last word and began tearing up.
"a-a-and n-n-now I trust no o-n-e" he said through sobs.
"Wow. You-" she was cut short by Imerali bursting into full out tears.
"Hey hey, it's all right." She said sitting down next to him.
"No no it's not! You're luring me into a false sense of security and then you'll just… hurt…me…"
"What's the matter?"
"Where are we?"
"Were on a back alley off Main Street, which leads to Inkopolis plaza."
This sent Imerali spiraling.
"Inkopolis you said?"
"Yes."
"My god I'm hallucinating."
"Why do you say that?"
"I'm seeing all this, and you."
"I'm not a hallucination."
"How can I be sure?"
Hmm. I wonder how he'd react to… maybe.
She grabbed him and gave him a kiss on the lips.
"Yep. Not a hallucination, but why'd yam have to do that?"
She smiled. "I don't know."
"Come on back to my apartment. I think I might be able to help you."
"No!"
"Why- oh!" she slapped him
"Oh. That's not what you meant."
"What's your name?"
"Imerali."
"Jamie. Can I just call you timer?"
"Sure." and with that they walked to her apartment hand in hand.
