Chapter Four

"do you remember when you started?" the words cut into Dream as she did the same to her arm. 'remember?' she asked herself "how could I forget? I remember exactly. It was the night I found out, about you and Caps. Your one of my best friends in the world and you betrayed me."

Dream let the tears fall as she continued on with what she wanted to say to Chipper that night but couldn't " I came home and found you together. It wasn't even a month, not even a week, and there, there you two stood holding each other and making me hurt, do you remember that day? The day I turned and ran? From you, from my problems, my troubles I just ran and kept running letting my legs carry me at fast as they would and before I knew it, I had returned I was back to the lodging house it was dark and I was back, back to face another day of painful and agonizing pain as I watch the two of you. One of my best friends and the one I had loved. "I'm home" I said to no one. Before I walked up the stairs I stopped and there it was, Morgan's letter opener, I had no intention of doing what I was about to I just.. I just picked it up and ran it under an old letter he had left out. It opened so easily and with no effort on my part at all. Then I placed the blade next to the skin on arm and watched as it made a smooth cut down my arm and bled. I watched the blood that gathered on the floor, and for the first time I felt relived about everything. At that moment everything in my life was okay. All my problems seemed to flow away like the blood on the floor did. I was satisfied finally and then exhausted."



Dream quickly pulled her pink undershirt down over the fresh wound when she heard someone enter the washroom. "Dream!?" the voice called and she had recognized it. "Dream!? Its me Timbah"



Dream whipped her eyes and walked out of the stall trying her best to look okay. It was time for her to forget Jersey, time for her to move on she said to herself.
