Time Period: The Present Reality

Place: Gabriel's cottage in the woods

Situation: Mary's breakdown and breakthrough

Mary's p.o.v

Such raw emotional and mental anguish, my breakdown and breakthrough, a rough patch. Reaching high and then down below but still coming in closer like a huge black raincloud, his loud and yet silent cries for help. A gradual slow descent into the abyss, darkness inside him that I overlooked, darkness inside him that I denied existed. Reaching high and then down below, a daily nagging thought and feeling that I could've saved him from himself.
