The first nightmare, he was reminded.

The second nightmare, he was cold.

The third nightmare… He was breaking.

Tonight… He doesn't sleep.

II. Memories


Tuesday, 2012

I'm still unsure, but I can't take it anymore. The nightmare was getting worse every night, and I fear Damon will soon question why I always woke far before dawn. The nightmare was my personal tormentor that comes every night, and the silenced scream I let out every time the nightmare awakened me couldn't be hid for too long.

I don't want my brother to know this grime that I have, that I could never scrub off no matter how hard I try. Every nightmare brought another set of filth to my body that I couldn't get rid of…

His touch was everywhere in my dream. The fear that I felt was intense, so much that I forgot it was just my memory replaying itself. Even the pain was unforgettable and vivid, that I expected bruises to appear at the spot he hit me.

I…was scared back then. I've never felt more scared than that time.

His eyes… He looked at me without the compassion of a father, rather…

I remember thinking if he would kill me.

I remembered wishing he would do just that.


Sapphire09: Like I said; short.

Now, I really like it if you tell me how do I do this time. Nothing much yet?
