"Mr. Jane. You have to let go of her now."

The voice cuts through him to the bone. He can't let go, he just can't. The longer he clings on with his eyes shut, the longer he can pretend that this hasn't happened. If he can just imagine for a little longer that he is holding her in a gentle caress, then it'll be okay.

But it won't be.

Because his imagination, his memory palace isn't a real place.

It's all locked in his mind.

The world feels like it is shaking. Déjà vu hits him.

So does the blood.
