Here is the sequel to Destiny. Only this time, it is Yolei.
I just merged the two together. I wanted it like it, so deal with it!
The exact opposite of what she expected was happening. All the lies were in front of her and she couldn't help but cover her mouth and fight tears. This fight that was lost easily.
Ken came back. Everyone was happy. Davis had his doubts–the most from everyone. He tried not to get his hopes up, thinking that any day he would turn around and find out that Ken is gone. Yolei felt the same way, but, she tried to keep it behind her.
Now, those doubts were back. Instead of taking in every pill around him, he was hurting his body from hallucinations. Scars didn't look like scars anymore. They seemed fresh and had a bright red to them. The thoughts of Ken hurting himself made Yolei want to gag.
Why was this happening? Why was this happening to Ken, why now? Above all other things, why did this have to start now. Things were going so well. Everything was returning to normal like she hoped. She used to dream that she would wake up one day and find out that everything returned to normal. She wished she could wake up from this nightmare.
Shutting down her computer, Yolei got up and threw herself on the bed, crying into the pillow. Her sister could be heard passing by, but she didn't stop to talk. Cody could be hearing her cry, she was so loud, but her sister couldn't be bother because two inches of wood allowed her to move forward like a normal person.
There was no one she could talk to. Davis didn't want to hear it, Cody didn't understand. Hawkmon could barely pronounce self mutilation, let alone use it in a sentence. Kari–she was too fragile. The sight of Ken would make her mind wonder and her spirits fall. T.K. was too wrapped up in his life to notice the small things–like the fact that Ken has to use a belt with his uniform to keep it on and that layers keep the scars hidden and old.
The fact that Ken pretended that everything was getting better made her curl into a small ball and cry harder. Yes, it was possible for her to cry harder right now. He would smile when it was expected and laughed when it was asked for–no matter how un-funny it was. When he needed help the most, he would smile and laugh, anything to make you think that everything was better.
How dare he!
But, then again, wasn't this what she wanted? Didn't she want things to get better? The one thing she wanted from this past year was for Ken to laugh and smile once more. Now that she had it, why wasn't she happy? Just because he starved himself and tried to fit the category of perfect everyday and sliced opened old scars, why couldn't she be happy with the small accomplishments.
Well, because they weren't good enough.
She loved him too much to settle for less.
Rest and Relaxation!
