Perfection
Dad hasn't let me out of the house since the moose thing happened. On one hand, I can speak freely for once now that Silas isn't over my shoulder constantly, but on the other...he memories of that other timeline haven't faded away. The one with the Tumblr blog. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it, even if it gives me a headache.
That other me...she was so alone. Her parents couldn't deal with her illness, she was bullied at school...Rei, Reina, and Entriken were all she had.
They killed people to try and make themselves whole...that other me held such a deep hatred for people. It's so scary understanding exactly how she feels, understanding why she did what she did. If I could stop this from killing me by taking another life? Not gonna lie it'd be hard to say no to that.
...Ashton, if you see this I'm sorry. For everything. I'm sorry for what we did to you, to Basic, to Laura, to everyone. If this makes you want to stop investigating with me, I understand that. But I promise, I'm not going to make the choices she did. That they did.
I promise.
I believe you, don't worry. I'm still going to investigate with you, no matter what happens, or what memories surface. I'm not the other me, and you aren't the other you. This you didn't hurt anyone, the other you did. The other me was easily manipulated into a cult. You didn't manipulate anyone into any cults.
ReplyDeleteI promise that I won't stop investigating with you, and I won't make the same mistakes the other me did. We're in this together.
...Thank you. Thank you for having faith in me. It means more than I can say.
