Chapter 24. Meet Me in the Hallway
*＊✿❀○❀✿＊*
Wilbur didn't know what he expected. He sat there patiently, looking over the nation he built from the ground up with his brother, son, and best friend.
He remembered all the times they would shit around and just have fun. It brought a smile to his face.
The simple times when it was just them. Where they didn't think of protecting themselves.
He scoffed at the memory of them building the wall. He hated himself for hurting himself over and over again.
Wilbur knew he was going crazy. It all started when Matilda was first 'taken.' The whispers in his head, the accusing voice that he heard drowned out the reality of it all.
He realized it too late. Matilda was the only real thing in his life. Even the independence of L'Manberg didn't bring him back from insanity.
He hated it. It was pathetic. He was covered in the smell of gunpowder, he started to smoke again, and he was losing the will to take care of himself.
It was nasty, in Tommy's words.
But as he sat there, on a boulder on top of a hill, overlooking L'Manberg, he realized that as he continued to wait, the quicker his sanity was holding on.
He hoped that Matilda would save him one more time. That she would appear from the trees and tell him that it was going to be alright. That even if she didn't love him anymore, she would still be there.
But as he watched the scene below, he knew. Matilda was too late. The festival was starting and that was the last straw to break in his head.
Wilbur lost all sense of sanity and no one will be able to pull him out of it.
