We haven't had any angst in aaages... have some, on me!


Date: 6th October

POV: Bella

Stimulus word: Twilight


It's twilight, again. The most painful time of day for me, the most difficult. It will be easier come Winter, when there's no such thing as twilight, but until then, I'll have to cope.

I have to hold myself together as I make dinner for Charlie. I'm falling apart—it's obvious to everyone. Charlie stays at work as long as he can. To delay coming home. Mostly because he feels guilty, I think. I hate that he feels guilty for my mistakes.

The evening is surreal. The sun is shining for once, and the last rays of light flicker as the sun disappears over the horizon. The sky is lit by a rainbow of colours, and it's lovely.

I have to look away, unable to bear the sight. My hole aches worse than ever.
