Previously on "The Hard Part of Letting Go":
(A gust of wind blows around the room and Chihiro watches the curtains dance for a while. Chihiro turns around and hold out the bottle to Haku. She looks up and Haku is gone. Her hand squeezes the bottle.)
Her hand squeezes the bottle. The glass brakes in her hand. Blood drips from her hand and on to the bottle. It drops on the floor. Chihiro drops her head and stares at her blood. She lets the fragments of the bottle fall to the floor. As the remains of the bottle clink on the ground Chihiro lowers her self to the floor. The blood drips from her hand and runs down her leg. Chihiro watches as is slides down passed her knee. The sunlight started to turn to darkness. A cold wind blows in to the room. Chihiro's blood leans away from its original direction to another path. Chihiro's legs are hit with goose bumps. Chihiro gets up and closes the window. Then she walks to the bathroom, she flicks on the light. The glass had been cleaned up and the light bulbs had been replaced.
'Haku.'
Chihiro grabs the towel and turns on the faucet and sticks the towel under the cold water. Then pulls up her leg in the toilet. Then wipes the blood from her leg. Then she throws the towel into the bathtub. The faucet was still running. She turns around and began to shove her hand into the water. As Chihiro examines her hand she sees the purple thread still on her hand. Chihiro pulls back her hand and began to pull the thread from her hand. The thread only got tighter. Chihiro pulls harder but the thread being provoked got tighter. Chihiro starts to pull but soon her fingers got stuck because the thread got tighter. The blood started to spill out more and more. She started to lose feeling in her hands. Chihiro started to feel her self being lost into unconsciousness. The purples thread brakes allowing the blood to flow back into her hand. Chihiro pulled her self out of unconsciousness. She is conscious enough to see the thread slither into her cut. Then the thread turns into a fluid and starts to help close up the wound. The fluid stings the fresh scar and it bubbles. As it bubbles she feels her skin start to pull from both sides of the cut. Chihiro screams as the skin expands to heal its self. The scar started to sew its self up and it began to itch. Chihiro was bewildered by what was going on in and on her hand. The pain and itching stopped. Chihiro opened her eyes. The thread lay braided in her hand. Chihiro started to decide for once in a long time whether or not to go back.
"I'm guessing you are feeling better."
Chihiro turns around and sees Yoko standing in their familiar uniform.
"I told the professors that you were sick. I brought your homework. I also thought that you would be hungry so I bought something on my way home. It is on the table in the kitchen."
Yoko turns to walk out of the room. Then stops at the door.
"Oh yeah, your mom called. I told her you were sick and she said that she was coming to pick you up to take you home. I heard that you haven't been home in 3 years. Don't worry I will be okay without you. So go get something to eat."
Yoko walked out of the room. Chihiro looked out the window. Dark clouds had gathered then rain slowly starts to fall and drip on the window. Chihiro turns around and walks toward the kitchen. She sees a box on the table and a plate full of rice and orange chicken near by the box. She sits down and picks up her chopsticks. She grabs a piece of Orange chicken and looks at it then puts it up to her mouth. Chihiro stops and takes a deep breath.
"I'm going back."
Chihiro smiles as she takes a bit out of the orange chicken. Then she positively shakes her head.
