I wake sitting in a chair on a small house on a mountain peak.

There's icy tundra on one side and water on the other.

I'm sitting at a table, and Monika is on the other side.

"Wake up, sleepyhead..." Monika says as she gently strokes my face.

"Where am I..."

"I've always known you've always wanted to live in Alaska..." Monika says, sweetly, offering me some Sour Patch Kids. She has one of my favorite songs, "Why Don't You Get A Job" by The Offspring. She has my favorite dinner, Mountain Dew and burritos, on the table.

This is deeply creepy.

"Monika, what is this? What are you doing?"

"I made our most perfect reality."

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"I wanted to be with you. Real reality or this reality would never give me a happy ending. So I forced one. Our reality. Our reality, Rivers."

Then she grabs my sweater and pulls me in close.

"I NEED YOU."

I want to push her off the cliff, but this is a virtual reality. She'd come back up.

I was part sympathetic, part angry.

"Aren't you dating Evan?"

"You really think I like him? I don't even really know him. I just wanted to get with you. I was gonna break up with him yesterday."

"Damn, that's some cold shit..."

"But it doesn't matter. We have our nice reality here. In the mountains outside Juneau."

"Juneau, Alaska?"

"Yeah, why?"

I run and jump off the cliff toward Juneau. I want to get back to Sayori.

I realized the cliff wasn't 5 or 6 feet but more like 500 or 600 feet.

Right before I hit the bottom, though, I reappeared in my seat.

"Don't worry, buddy, suicide isn't part of this reality." Monika reassured me.

A part of me wants to stay here.

I love Alaska, this nice peaceful sky, a nice tiny house with WiFi and free burritos.

But I need to leave.

"Monika, you know I'm with Sayori..." I tell her.

"Oh, really now? Well, I hate to break it to you, buddy..." she respond.

She flips the laptop screen towards me and I am deeply traumatized by what I saw.

I have a friend named Lawrence in my math class.

He's tall, Asian, and super good at basketball.

Anyhow...

Sayori and Lawrence were doing it in the bathroom at school. And they were just going at it. Sayori was moaning, "Oh, you're so much better than Rivers!

I screamed, "Let me out, I'm gonna kill him!"

I was heartbroken. How could she? We normally mess around since we're next-door neighbors, shining flashlights in each other's windows, but not last night. Where did she sleep last night? I don't remember her ever coming home.

"She slept at Lawrence's house, Rivers." Monika consoled, while she cupped her hand with mine.

Parts of me were so angry they joined with the parts of me that loved this reality.

And I did something I wasn't really proud of.

In my mind, I was super angry. How could she do that to me?

"If she's gonna slap out with who she wants, I'll slap out with who I want."

So, um... I ended up sleeping with Monika.

She took her clothes off and set me on the bed. She got on me and rode me hard.

She was moaning so loud, and I rolled over and thrusted her in.

She was practically begging me to give it to her harder.

I was wearing nothing, and she was only wearing her black tights and super large white bow.

I... ay ay ay, ended up coming in her.

I freaked out a bit, but she loved it and moaned even harder.

She picked up the laptop to make another hack, when a voice came from the laptop.

It was obviously Sayori's voice.

Monika immediately shut the laptop.

But Sayori could still see her.

"Monika, what are you doing?" she asked, "...and why are you naked?"

I hid under the bed, but I forgot to grab my clothes, and my wardrobe is pretty recognizable.

There was silence, then subtle tears, then loud tears.

"Rivers... why... how could you..." Sayori sobbed.

I wasn't having any of it. I stood up and dusted off.

"No, how could YOU? You slept with one of my best friends!"

"No, I didn't!" Sayori responded.

"Then tell me this, Sayori..." and in an angrier tone, "and don't you fucking dare lie to me... where did you sleep last night? Because I pulled an all-nighter and I never saw you that night."

She said in a quiet sobbing voice, "...Fine... I did. I slept with him... I'm so sorry..I'm so fucking sorry..."

She cried and soon I heard the cocking of a shotgun. She put it to the roof of her mouth...

"Sayori, no!"

BANG!

It was too late.

I saw her body on the grounds. From the background, it seems like she was in the pines behind the school.

I sat and cried on the ground.

Monika seemed to hear. Because she put on her clothes and sat next to me.

"Look, if it'll make you happy, maybe this will work...", she said. She hugged me, then plugged something else into the code.

And, we got whisked away again.
