I woke up in my bed. I tried to remember what happened.

Nothing came to mind.

Rein turned and looked at the clock.

7:50 AM

"School's going to start in five minutes," she told me.

"Yeah."

Why did I have such a heavy feeling weighing me down? As if I didn't care about anything anymore. I didn't look in the mirror before I left. I didn't notice the dulled color of my eyes.

We entered the classroom silently. Everybody looked up. I heard them start to whisper.

"What's up with Fine and Rein today?"

"Why are they so quiet?"

"Did something bad happen?"

I didn't care. Instead, I walked to the front of the class. In monotone, I started to speak. The words came out as if I had rehearsed them many times before.

"We're not the Fine and Rein you once knew. We're not your friends anymore. Don't talk to us. Don't bother us. Don't have anything to do with us. Leave us alone. We're better off by ourselves."

I didn't know why I said that, but, like I mentioned before, I didn't care. All that mattered in my life was making sure the master got what he wanted.

A confused ripple of voices swept through the room. Heads turned as Rein and I took our seats. Shade came up to us, looking more worried than anybody else.

"Hey Fine, what's going on?" he asked.

I gazed up at him blankly.

Weird, my chest didn't hurt, not like when I talked to him before.

That was a good thing, right?

I stared into his violet eyes.

"Go away."

The words just came out.

A collective gasp was heard in the room.

"Did you hear that?"

"Fine just told Shade to go away!"

"What's wrong with her today?"

I had a feeling that I was supposed to be hurting, but strange, I didn't feel anything at all.

Shade was about to say something when I cut him off.

"Didn't you hear me the first time? I said, go away."

I think that made him snap.

"Look, Fine, I don't know what your problem is, but I'm not liking it. First you won't tell me whatever's bothering you and now you're acting like crap. You know people are actually worried about you. Why don't you think a little bit about others before you go doing your own selfish things?" he spat at me.

And with that, he walked away.

My classmates were looking at me, as if expecting me to stand up and chase after him.

I didn't move.

Why would I do something like that?

Shade was annoyed and frustrated and and angry and it was all my fault.

But my eyes remained emotionless.

Because, unlike before, there was no feeling. No sorrow, no anger, no nothing.

It was almost as if I didn't have a heart anymore.
