yet another day in that consuming place.
she couldn't take it anymore, she had to go somewhere! but where..?

her tired glance landed on the time scissors. what if..?
at this point she'd do anything to get out of that place. to remember. she didn't know her own name.

it was so painful.

all she remembered were blurry laughters, far, far away happy moments, soft touches and somebody loving her. but every time she tried remembering, she couldn't.

why was she here in the first place? did somebody do this to her? did she do it to herself?

those and many more questions were plaguing her head. and trying to answer them just made it hurt even more.

she had to do this. wherever she'd go, she'd have a name, a life, a past and a future. wherever she'd arrive, it would be way better than this.

she tried using the scissors a long time ago, so she somewhat knew how they work.

she grabbed them, holding firmly onto the old golden handles. she concentrated so hard, it felt like her brain was gonna explode. she opened the scissors.
a gush of air came in the time pocket, causing her to open her eyes.
somehow, her vision blurred, so she couldn't see anything. she just blindly grabbed the scissors and wen through the rift.

all she heard was a faint "timekeeper!!" before collapsing.

..𖦹

"timekeeper.." the same voice said, but quieter. she opened her eyes, only to see a blonde-haired girl looking at her with tears in her eyes. "i never thought you'd return!" the girl smiled.
"who....?" she managed to mumble.
"i think something's wrong with her." a guy with pretty crimson hair leaned in from behind the girl. "she looks like she died then came back to life."

"oh shut up." the girl responded. "she's clearly alive. can't you see her studying us..?" the girl's voice slowly died towards the end.

"yeah, it's almost as if she doesn't recognise us."
the girl's smile faded.

"you don't..know who we are..?"
she shook her head. who were these people? why were they sad that she didn't know them? was one of them the person loving her.?

☀︎︎

by the end of the day, her, or timekeeper's, as they called her, head was spinning with information. apparently, the girl was croissant, her past self..? and the guy was string gummy, that all they both told her. oddly enough, they both kept every information short and dry.

she also was the director here once..?

she was good friends with them too...? why didn't she remember that??..

whatever. she's in a better place now, has a past, and a future, and two friends. isn't that great.!
