Chapter Ten: Dear God

            I’m not sure what I just did. I see the naked piece of flesh next to me. This girl was nice and did save me, but I shouldn’t have jumped into the bed with her this soon. But the thing was, I like this girl. She accepted my insanity, my biggest flaw. She understood what I was. And she liked it.

            I didn’t mind that I was crazy anymore. I fully embraced it. As I walk out of my room to get a drink, followed by a now semi dressed woman, then I saw him. It’s the red faced man in the suit. He stood there staring at me. I stared back. Hope notices and walks up to me.

“Who is it?”

“The man.”

She reaches and grips my hand. She smiles and says aloud:

“He’s mine now.”

The man walks away. I have a feeling that I will never see him again.

Hope turns to me and kisses me. I question her.

“Why are you with me? I’m insane.”

“Everyone is. You told me everything that happened to you. And I didn’t mind it at all.”

“That doesn’t seem like a great reason to be with me.”

“Well it’s all I need. Do you not want to do this?”

“I want to. I just can’t believe its happening.”

“Well believe it. Are you ready to leave everything else behind?”

I hesitate but say, “Yes.”

She kisses me again. Her lips are soft but they are cold now.

I smile. I think that things maybe are for the better now. I have hope, literally.

I walk back into my room and she follows. We lay in bed together.

I fall asleep.

Nothing.

No nightmares.

Just bliss.

Death has taken me.

I’m dead.

Death is blissful, the evil inside is dead, the good has escape and hope has been my downfall.

Hmm, its an odd turn in the story. Unexpected, which is good. Its also concise but just right. I'm interested in reading the rest, keep it up.

how refreshing to read a piece that shows how a mental health issue needn't be an obstacle, this really is good, it starts off with a bang, then opens a window to a world I can totally empathise with. Well described...fluent and yet meeting a laymans understanding. Thanks
