Forever Is Just Too Long

He Knows

"It's okay, this happens all the time.", Aroa ensures. Aroa pushed herself off the tree branch and watched Callum's facial expression change from guilt and sorrow to terrified and confused.

"What? H-how are you still alive? You just got impaled! How is that even possible?!", Callum was shooketh.

"Well, to sum it up. I am an immortal human being.", Aroa says bluntly.

"What!? Those exist!?", Callum yells.

"Yeah.", Aroa says.

"Well, how long have you been alive?", Callum asks.

"Oh, well that's a question. For billions of years man. When I was alive we didn't even have lanterns when I am from.", Aroa says.

"Jesus!", Callum yells.

"No, I'm Aroa but I'll take Jesus as a compliment.", Aroa jokes.

"Okay, this is weird and look your wound is healed!", Callum explains.

"Yeah, it's kind of how this immortal thing works.", Aroa says.

"Also shouldn't you be kind of scare of me? You know the whole scene when you call me a monster and run away.", Aroa asks.

"No, since your still my friend it's just you don't die. Also, this is kind of cool.", Callum explains. Aroa life just did a whole u-turn when she heard this. Her whole life being outcasted for just making one mistake. But finally, somebody excepts her. You can't imagine how that must feel.

"Wait! Really?", Aroa was ecstatic. She was thinking he was gonna say "ha just a joke. Did you get her reaction on camera?", but no he didn't.

"Yeah. I am guessing people did that whole you're a monster scene all the time.", Callum says.

"Every time.", Aroa explains.

"What?! Every time! Nobody ever excepted you! You must have lived an awful life!", Callum yells infuriated with the past world.

"I did. My family even outcasted me. Anybody I ever cared about died thinking I was a monster, hating me. My life was awful.", Aroa explains.

"So, how did you become immortal?", Callum asks.

"Well, it started when this guy in my village, Parvan Thanatos, committed suicide. Because of me.", Aroa states feeling guilty.

"What? You made this guy commit suicide?", Callum asks.

"Yes, you broken record player. I pry too much into his private life and dug too deep. I have a knack for finding peoples weaknesses since they are probably all things I think about myself.", Aroa explains.

"So, did you anger a god by making this guy commit suicide?", Callum asks.

"I think so. I don't really know. But now I have been trying to find a way to die but nothing had been working.", Aroa states.

"Wait. You have been trying to kill yourself for billions of years.", Callum is distraught.

"Well, my life is shit and I want it to end. Also, I have lived my life out a billion times already. don't you think I have a right to be a little upset with my situation?", Aroa asks.

"I guess your right but I still don't like it.", Callum says.

"Guys! How long are you gonna be talking about Hentai for?", Sidra yells from the campsite.

"Shit! I am still covered in blood!", Callum yells.

"And I have a huge hole through my shirt!", Aroa adds.

"We need to get changed before they come searching for us.", Callum says.

"What do you mean? I was just gonna say we KILLED A BEAR!", Aroa jokes.

"No time to be a smartass, Aroa. Let's go.", Callum demands.

"Alright. I am going.", Aroa says. Aroa and Callum sneak through the woods because they are ninja and get changed and go back to the campsite. Of course they question why they had changed their clothes.

"Why did you guys change your clothes? Kind of sus.", Yazmin asks

"Well, we fell over and our clothing got all muddy.", Aroa lies.

"Oh, I thought it was gonna be something more sexual but that makes sense.", Sidra states.

"Ew, no.", Callum and Aroa say at the same time.

"Okay!", Sidra yells.

"Who wants to play truth or dare?", Sidra asks.

"No.", Everybody says way too quickly.

"Come on it's fun.", Sidra says.

"Yes, because getting humiliated is super fun.", Aroa says sarcastically. Aora has played a lot of truth or dare in her never-ending life time and well one time she had to run around a village naked. That was not fun. Never again.

"Okay, fine. I will play your game.", Yazmin says.

"If Yazmin is joining then I am joining. I don't wanna play alone with Sidra.", Luke says.

"I will join then.", Callum adds.

"I guess I will play...", Willow says super quietly.

"Whoo! Aroa are you joining?", Sidra asks. They all look at Aroa and well shit. Stupid fucking goddamn little bitch that bears the name fucking peer pressure!

"Yeah, I'll play"
