Drip Drop

Drip, Drop

Drip, Drop

The rain poured itself on Neo Domino, as if was taking it's own unique shower. The weather is probably mocking me with it. With the way I'm feeling I'm feeling we were in perfect sync with each other.

Drip, Drop

Drip Drop

I silently whispered a "shut up" to it. Doesn't it already I feel bad enough as it is, wow mother nature's a bitch. She's probably laughing at me and her rain is her way of making fun of me and it's working. With every drop I felt worser. I couldn't rid my mind of the event that took place last night. I figured it was a dream, another one of those nightmares but, when I woke up, covered in blood. That logic went crashing down. I look down at my body instead of it's usual color it was a bright pink. Maybe I shouldn't have scrubbed so roughly.

Drip, Drop

Drip, Drop

I don't remember how long I spent in the bathroom washing the blood off. I think I kept going at it even though it was completely gone. So what drive me to keep going to the point my skin was coming off?

Drip, Drop

Drip, Drop

The smell, I couldn't get it away from me. Right now I can still smell it. First the rain now the horrid stench is teasing me, what's next?

Drip, Drop

Drip, Drop

The memory, that's what next. A mini video in my head was just playing over and over again. I had no control over it. I couldn't find a stop button anywhere. All I saw was play and rewind. It was a chilly so I pulled my robe tighter around me, or at least that's what I want to believe. Maybe some nice hot tea will ease my nerves.

Drip, Drop

Drip, Drop

After letting the water boil I went to the fridge to get me a piece of cake. It seems so normal, so ordinary. I chuckled grimly, cutting my slice of chocolate cake. The water was done boiling so I started making my tea. After completion I took the first few bites into my snack. What would have been a sweet, delicious desert, it tasted bitter to me.

Drip, Drop

Drip, Drip, Drop

Distraction, I needed distraction. I need something else to think about. Get these images out of my mind! I can't tell you how I just wanted to scream "get out" or "stop it".

Never was and never will be

You don't know how you betrayed

You know you got everybody fooled

My cell phone playing it's signature ringtone rang from the table. I picked it up to look at the caller ID. When the title read "Yusei" my heart melted a little.

"How is it that you have such an effect on my?" I asked myself out loud. It's a good my parents are on a business trip and the maids and butlers are off duty today. I pondered if I should answer, which left me very confuse. Usually I jumped at the chance of answering Yusei's calls. So why having second thoughts now?

You know you're everybody's fool

I just stood there unmoving with the device in my hand. When I was about to answer it I ended up missing the call.

"You have reached Aki Izayoi please leave a message after the beep."

"Aki, this is Yusei, just wanted to make sure you got home safely. So please call me back."

Both voicemails ended. I should call him back to let him know that I am safe.

Drop, Drop

Drip, Drip

I send him a text message that I made it home safely and let out a sad sigh.

"He's such a sweet boy don't think."

That made me drop my phone. "Go away," I said, not caring that it was out loud.

"Sorry I'm here to stay, I'm inside your mind so where would I even go?"

"Anywhere but, here."

"Haha your funny I meant what I said Aki I'm you. Like or not I'm stuck to you like glue."

I stayed silent, what was I supposed to say to that? Before I knew I wasn't in my living room anymore. I was surrounded by fog, lots of it. I had to squint to see Black Rose.

"Where am I?"

"Your mind or at least part of what I'm residing in."

"Why did you bring me here?"

"To congratulate you on a job well done, that was a good kill last night."

"It was your doing."

"No Aki it wasn't you know you have everything to do with that murder you practically shivering with pleasure from his screams and there will be more, so much more."

That's when darkness have engulfed me once more.
