Late Night Comfort

================================

"Ah…hurts…it hurts…"

"How many times do I have to tell you to continue your goddamn training! You're my goddamn masterpiece, not a useless tool!"

"Professor, I think that's enough. His stamina levels can't--" 

"Don't tell me what to do, you runt. Now order him to continue or I'll find another replacement for you." 

"Y-Yes, Professor." 

"Hurts…no…more…I want…go…ho-home…" 

================================

"This…what is this…"

"How did you get in--" 

"What the hell is this place?! What did you do to our dear child?!" 

"It's nothing for you to worry about. Go home." 

"Ki@#ta&@ is in immense pain and you're telling me not to worry?! What kind of a father are you?!" 

"This is for his own good, Ma&#@. I'm creating a better future for him." 

"He's still a kid! Our kid, for god's sake!"

"Calm down--" 

"Don't tell me to calm down! I can't believe you would do this to him… torturing and experimenting his own child… you're beyond evil…" 

================================

"M-Mom?…"

"Don't worry, sweetie. Mommy is here for you. I'll--what the?! L-Let me go! I'm his mother, goddammit!" 

"Take her away…and make sure she doesn't come back." 

"Professor?!" 

"You're… ordering them to…kill me? Your own wife?" 

"I will not repeat myself. Take her away this instant." 

"How…how could you do this?…I thought you love me…" 

"Take. Her. Away. NOW." 

"You bastard! How could you fucking do this?! To your own wife and son?! You're a monster!" 

"Don't…leave…me…!" 

"LET ME GO! LET ME FUCKING GO! GIVE ME MY SON BACK, YOU MONSTER!"

"Don't go! Don't leave me!" 

"Get back in there, brat!" 

"Ack!" 

"KIYOTAKA!" 

================================

"Ahh…"

I woke up from a completely strange dream. I think this is what they call a nightmare? For some reason, I could feel my whole body is drenched in sweat even though the air conditioner is on. I've never had this kind of dream before but that isn't even the weird part.

"Why…did it felt…so real?" 

I recognize some parts like my old man and the white room but there was another person who was arguing with him. It felt like that person was a woman screaming at him. I didn't recognize her face but she felt so familiar to me. She kept calling for my name but I couldn't even reach her out.
