Chapter 2 : The Sound

That sound is starting to get annoying. The problem is that it's always on the right side of my hearing sight. My inner compass is dead at the moment. I'm just here like an idiot wandering around looking for a weird sound that was starting to get closer for some reason.

When I came back to the shelter I build out of metal boards I was able to remove from a weird ammo box I found some kind of a showering system then I went to take a shower.

As soon as the water started falling it started to get louder and louder. Unbearable quicking sounds, but for the first time, I felt pain like my ear being bitten or just touched by something of this kind.

I started to hit my head to get that thing out of my ear and turns out it was a fly. I stopped the water and lifted it. I could see it move its mouth with clear worlds but no actual sounds.

So I just put it inside my ear and then magically it started to talk an understandable language.

"Hey you, I have been trying to speak with you for the past 20 $#&@$#. Stop moving and listen. I know a way out of here and you'll have to do as I say."

I was so exhausted I just felt on the ground and passed out. I started to see people I have known in my life, like in sort of a dream.

Some of them are playing cards and some of them are just talking. As I'm trying to approach the card players I started hearing things. Things that apparently made me cry.

"When you'll stop cheating you'll be able to play".

"When will you learn that remembering the position of cards is no cheating?".

I can't even remember what I ate yesterday. Those kids didn't have faces. Just colors. They were all red. And red in psychology means anger and hostility.

Blue ink on my eyes started to fill my vision. When I spoke to the others they looked like girly shapes. Each one was smiling and just laughing and I could hear some words.

"He's so smart, He's so energetic."

And then when I start to feel good, smiles start to turn to sad faces and despicable looks and I start to hear something like this.

"And then there is this guy, He's so weird, The only person that loves him is his parents and still".

And then for the first time, a familiar face. A girl's face.

"What did you do, You have wasted my time again and again just because I wanted to help you, I would have watched a whole series instead of listening to you, Just Drown already..."

Then I woke up, I was floating on some slimy water. When I went down the floating slimy cloud, it was disgusting.

I was on a 1 mm gelly surface and very close to the ceiling, and everything was on the ground and of course, the fly was dead. I ain't leaving this place I guess.

<To picture this more easily there is the ground, some stuff like machines, wooden and plastic furniture, 1m of emptiness, 1mm of slime, and then the character and of course the ceiling>

I started to look back at the dream I had. It was so real. I started to cry just on myself and started to punch things until my arms started to bleed.

I was just crazy and sad and angry. Then I looked back at that girl's face and suddenly see her in front of me and start to say things I don't even understand. The tears started to fall like a waterfall. But then she told me with a perfect English accent.

"Why are you crying? Why are you crying? Why aren't you happy like you always are?".

"All those kids said true facts, but that doesn't mean that you should listen to them. I'm extremely sure that in another timeline you would are friends with them but you are sad and can dl nothing about it. Cheer up dumbass"

Then I started to drown again but this time it was in tears. Drowning in my own tears. I couldn't bear the sadness anymore. I just shut my eyes again.

Everything was dark blue and I was just a naked man in an infinite dark space. And then I hear her voice again.

"Do you really love me that much?".

And all of a sudden I start hearing drops coming from nowhere. I started walking and the drops kept getting louder and still empty darkness everywhere.

As I reach the source of the sound I see a wall with a female body hanged near it. She was thick with blond hair, her face was hidden behind that soft golden hair. As I turn it to see it's the face it started to cry.

I asked her what's up but no response what so ever. Then I started to drown in empty space. As I was trying to get out of the mysterious liquid, walls started building in front of me as I was getting caged inside some kind of black walls with red drops falling like the icing of a cake but from inside the cake.

Then I woke up again drowning in blood. But this time I started to think about why all this is happening.

I started feeling, Lonely, sad, depressed. I started to cry and shout. But the sounds started bouncing and my ears started to bleed like crazy as it was hurting progressively. But then at once, everything stopped.

I remembered. When I was young I used to love a girl that looked like her. She was just the perfect image of beauty. A beauty to the eyes of all humans.

I spoke to her once and never again. And since that day I started to bluescreen in front of her admiring the view and just look at those soft silky golden yellow hair that made me crazy in love with her. But never got the courage to talk to her in person. Now, because of my childish behavior, she has me blocked in each and every social media.

As I started to regret, all layers started to flush out one by one as I reach the last one and start to think about it again. I just start living all the pain again and again and again, then the voice finally said to me.

"Just talk to her damn it!"

But I couldn't. Scared of her reactions and all the variables and possibilities and probabilities, I just couldn't even look at her eye in the eye.

I dropped a pin I had in my hair I had kept that belonged to her and finally broke the cycle. All the walls near me were white for once and also badly damaged. My hands were healed. But one wall was grey and sandy. As I started to scratch it, it started to fall. I brought everything I have found so far. I packed up all my gear. Made a shovel and started digging as the tears kept falling. What was outside this hell that was worth the only material memory I had of her...
