The next morning Sunny went onto his usual day. He went downstairs, and was greeted by his mother.

"Sunny, I'm going away for a week or so for a business trip I need to attend. Do you think you'll be ok?"

His mother asks, recalling the events that happened last night. Sunny of course, nodded. Yet his mother is not taking it.

"You know what Sunny, I'll get Kel to hangout with you if you don't want to be alone. Well... I don't want you to be alone for a while..."

His mother gives Sunny a saddened look. Sunny nods and grabs a glass of water.

"Great, I heard that Hero will be coming home soon. And Kel invited you over for a party?"

Sunny responded again with a nod to his mother. His mother was already happy with Sunny's nod as a response, she knew how hard it has been for him for the past 4 years ever since Mari left them.

It was hard on her too, but the house needed a person who was stable. So she made sure she was stable before meeting Sunny.

Sunny's mother looks at the time and chokes on the sandwich she was eating. She hurriedly drank the cup of water beside her and ran towards the door, picking up her back and luggage.

"LOVE YOU SUNNY! I'LL MAKE SURE KEL COMES OVER TODAY, HELP YOURSELF FOR SOME FOOD ON THE FRIDGE STAY SAFE BYE!!!"

The front door slams as Sunny hears a car drive away. Sunny slowly drank the glass of water in his hands, thinking that this is what he'll be running on for the whole day.

And as if it was timed, a knock was heard once again. Sunny, not bothering to look into the peep hole... (already knowing who it was) opened the door and was greeted by Kel's happy-go-lucky personality.

"Hey Sunny! I heard your mom is going away for a week or so. She yelled at me to come over."

Kel smiles, Sunny nods and let's him inside.

"Also! About the party... 2 days from now!"

Sunny nods once again as he made his way towards the couch. Sitting on it, Kel doing the same.

"Wanna watch T.V?"

Kel asks as he reached for the remote just beside him. Sunny let's out a "hm" as a response to Kel.

Kel turns on the television and surfs through the channels, eventually finding an interesting topic and staying in the said channel.

Aside from that, Sunny was out onto his own world. He accidentally fell asleep as Kel was changing the channels. He didn't know he was this tired to randomly fall asleep, but he did.

He was once again greeted by 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚆𝚑𝚒𝚝𝚎 𝚜𝚙𝚊𝚌𝚎 and by 𝕆𝕄𝕆ℝ𝕀, just sitting down beside the sketchbook.

"𝚈𝚘𝚞'𝚛𝚎 𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚎 𝚊𝚐𝚊𝚒𝚗."

𝕆𝕄𝕆ℝ𝕀 states, quite annoyed.

"𝙸𝚏 𝚢𝚘𝚞'𝚛𝚎 𝚐𝚘𝚗𝚗𝚊 𝚋𝚎 𝚜𝚘 𝚜𝚞𝚕𝚔𝚢 𝚠𝚑𝚢 𝚍𝚘𝚗'𝚝 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚓𝚞𝚜𝚝 𝚝𝚊𝚔𝚎 𝚖𝚢 𝚊𝚍𝚟𝚒𝚌𝚎 𝚊𝚕𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚍𝚢?"

Sunny sighs.

"... I don't know."

𝕆𝕄𝕆ℝ𝕀 lays down.

"𝚈𝚘𝚞'𝚛𝚎 𝚎𝚟𝚎𝚗 𝚋𝚘𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝙺𝚎𝚕... 𝚑𝚎'𝚜 𝚗𝚘𝚠 𝚢𝚘𝚞𝚛 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢𝚜𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚎𝚛."

Sunny looks away from 𝕆𝕄𝕆ℝ𝕀.

"... I'm not ready."

"𝚈𝚎𝚝 𝚢𝚘𝚞'𝚛𝚎 𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚎. 𝙵𝚎𝚎𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚐𝚞𝚒𝚕𝚝, 𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚜𝚞𝚏𝚏𝚎𝚛𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚏𝚛𝚘𝚖 𝚝𝚛𝚊𝚞𝚖𝚊. 𝚈𝚘𝚞 𝚎𝚟𝚎𝚗 𝚜𝚝𝚊𝚋𝚋𝚎𝚍 𝚢𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚜𝚎𝚕𝚏 𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚜𝚊𝚢 𝚢𝚘𝚞'𝚛𝚎 𝚗𝚘𝚝 𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚍𝚢?"

Sunny stays quiet.

"𝚈𝚘𝚞'𝚛𝚎 𝚊 𝚓𝚘𝚔𝚎 𝚂𝚞𝚗𝚗𝚢."

"I'm going to headspace."

Sunny says, quite furious with 𝕆𝕄𝕆ℝ𝕀. 𝕆𝕄𝕆ℝ𝕀 ignores Sunny on his way out.

"That's interesting..."

Kel ponders as he watches the T.V show airing on the television.

"Hey Sunny I have to go-"

Kel says as he glances at the clock. Only to see a sleeping Sunny beside him. Kel quietly left the house and went on with his day.

.
.
.

"Welcome back Dreamer!"

A cat on the wall spoke, looking happily at Sunny.

"Would you like to play with your friends?"

Sunny shook his head.

"Oh? Well would you like to-"

"No. I want to think... alone."

Sunny walks away to a corner, he lays down and faces the colorful ceiling. The cat, continues to smile at Sunny.

This continued for a while, Sunny not responding to anything outside his own thinking.

Soon, 𝕆𝕄𝕆ℝ𝕀 greets him and drops a 𝚔𝚗𝚒𝚏𝚎 beside him.

"𝚂𝚞𝚗𝚗𝚢 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚖𝚞𝚜𝚝 𝚕𝚎𝚊𝚟𝚎."

Sunny gladly took the knife and without a hesitation.

𝚂𝚞𝚗𝚗𝚢 𝚜𝚝𝚊𝚋𝚋𝚎𝚍 𝚑𝚒𝚖𝚜𝚎𝚕𝚏.

[ I will no longer be doing special characters as it takes a longer process. I want to send out as many chapters and decided I'll just edit the chapters after I'm done with the book. Thank you! ]

Sunny wakes up in his living room, the whole house was dark and the only light that was visible was coming from the kitchen.

He glances over the kitchen to see the lights turned on at the area. He stood up and went towards the kitchen to turn off the lights.

Afterwards, he made his way up the stairs... slowly but surely making it safely up to the 2nd floor of their house.

Before Sunny went to his cold and lonely room, he went towards the bathroom. Sunny opens and slowly closes the bathroom door behind him.

He walked up to the big mirror and stared at it. The mirror reflected Sunny and SOMETHING behind him.

Sunny trembled at the sight yet he kept his face still. He eventually turns on the faucet and washes his face with the cold running water.

Soon, he left for his bedroom.

.
.
.

He threw himself on his cold and comfortable bed. What a nice night to sleep away, the dark room screamed danger yet Sunny laid still on his bed.

After a while he drifts off to sleep.
