a new day had rolled around, a new day for experiences, change, repetitiveness.
for most people, that day would come and go as easily as the last, not even stressing about the what ifs or the buts, but he , he was the opposite of that.

cool, calm, collected, were the three c's which the people residing on his outer circle would compliment him as,

yet none of these three words were accurate in the slightest, not even a minute ounce of them.

truth be told, he was worse in his years at high school, letting his cover slip and letting the grotesque feelings inside of him slither out for occasional seconds,

but he knew that wasn't an experience unique to him, plenty of students battled the same challenges which he had- he was just as ordinary as the plain old everyone else.

and right there-  that was just one of his wide array of problems which had never been seen as an excuse to take himself to therapy, always managing to compare himself to others in some way.
it wasn't self destructive like that of a certain brunette setter, but it was just something which nipped at his skin, each time leaving wounds a fraction deeper than the last.

it wasn't his family life that had caused all of this, he was a loved child with parents he would  server them the world the world on a diamond-encrusted platter if he had the option to, in fact, it was more likely thanks to-

well, actually, now that i think about it, maybe thats a story to tell another day.

" [ Name ].... "

his dull , resonant voice ricochet from within the small confines of her room, the shadowing walls caging it, trapping it.

but, there  was no reply to his call, he was only met with the kittenish murmurs she had been emitting from her sleeping state, which was overshadowed by the deafening white noise.
