Neteyam POV:
Rek'o and Tera died in a car crash, Ao'nung returned to his suicidal self and eventually took his life, again. Tsireya, Kiri, and I had a huge argument, which led to our friendship falling out. Lo'ak being her husband, he stopped talking to us, too. My youngest sister was accused of a crime she didn't do, so she was beheaded, and Rotxo was missing. Oh- my parents and parents-in-law had all caught a deadly virus too. Right now, Kiri is all I have. My friends also stopped going out with me, they said I was bad luck. My life turned upside down, I was loaded with cash and loneliness. I wanted my normal life again. I wanted my past. I cried myself to sleep every night. 'Oh Eywa, do you so hate me so much you took my beloveds away from me?' I thought.Kiri decided to move in with me for awhile. It was nice to have some company. "Hey bro." "Hey sis, I'll take those. Follow me." I took her light weighed bags, crawling up the stairs with my younger sister behind me. I placed her bags on the guest room. "Hm? Teyam, what's this?" Kiri appeared behind me with an unlabeled bottle. "Oh, just some anti-depression pills. It's nothing." Kiri sighed and placed it back where she found it, in my bedroom.
"We'll get through it, Kiri." "How? My fiance is missing, your husband is dead, TUK. OUR YOUNGEST SISTER- is dead! Tsireya and Lo'ak won't talk to us and we can't even visit mom or dad!" "We have each other. We-" I sighed mid sentence. "-we have to survive Kiri." I took her hands. All I could see was her broken spirit in her eyes, she shook my hands off and embraced me. I missed her. She broke down in tears and buried her face in my hoodie. I tried to stay strong as her big brother. But with our current situation, it was hard. Very, hard. "I'm trying my best, Kiri. Please, bear with me." "I miss them all so much bro." "I do too."
The next few days weren't bad. I felt relieved to be with someone I loved once again. Me and Kiri took turns, who would cook, who would go shopping, who would clean, etc etc.
"Bro! Bro wake up!" "Ugh.. what- what?!" "They found Rotxo!" "WHAT?!"
We rushed to the police station as soon as we could. "Where is he?! Where- ROTXO!" Kiri ran to her fiance in tears, hugging him tight. Rotxo was full of small cuts and bruises. The couple reunited. I was happy for my sister, but deep down, I envied them. Having someone to hold once again after so long. This meant she would have to move back to Rotxo's condominium. And I, I would be oh so lonely again. How sad my life was.
Turns out Rotxo was taken from a bar when he was drinking with his friends, then he was almost trafficked. Luckily for him, he escaped. But he got stranded in a desert, somewhere. After fainting, he was found by a few countrymen. Then he was taken care of for awhile to regain his strength, after, he joined a truck on it's way back to the city, delivering meat and other goods.
"Thanks for taking care of her bro." "Anytime, stay safe man." I tapped Rotxo's shoulder as I closed the door.
But as soon as I did, I broke down in tears. I fell to my knees. I was all alone, again.
My life was so sad,
dead spouse, dead sibling, broken relationships..
I stood up and wiped my tears, walking to the bedroom me and Ao'nung once shared. I went inside the bathroom and plugged the tub, I opened the tap. I needed a hot bath. I finally finished, clothing myself in my pajamas. It was just around 6 PM right now, but I honestly couldn't care anymore.
I woke up to the smell of something burning. I started coughing, then I opened my eyes. My eyes darted from my clock on my bedside table, to the small slit underneath my bedroom door, black smoke was slowly infecting the cold air my AC blew. I coughed even harder. Damn, I was really going to die in a fire, wasn't I? I shut my eyes, I let myself inhale the smoke. I felt pain in my neck, there were several hickeys planted on it. I was sure they were Ao'nung's, but he's dead. So I must be hallucinating. I lifted the blanket which covered my body, I was naked, my body felt really sticky. Did I just get raped? Then, the door barged open.
"Ack! Teyam, I know you're awake, are you trying to kill yourself?!" Ao'nung, Ao'nung?! He opened the window and flapped his hand, trying to 'shoo', away the smoke. I sat up in alarm, my eyes wide at him. He looked back at me and chuckled, what the fuck is happening? "I'm sorry you had to wake up like this, my love." He smiled and went up to me, kissing my jaw. I didn't react at all, I just stared at him wide-eyed.
Was it all a dream?
All my cries, my sufferings, were just a dream?
"What happened last night?" "Hm? You forgot already? Or do I need to give you a physical recap?" He smirked back at me. I smiled back, stuttering. "N-no, I think I remember now." "Alright, are you okay?" "I'm fine, just clean whatever mess you made downstairs." "Okay, noted!" He left the room as I sat there. Thinking, thinking. Thinking..
Which was the dream? The one where I lost everyone, or the one I'm in right now? I sighed. I took a shower and viewed my phone. I had messages from our GC, the one which was supposed to be inactive, or dead. But apparently it wasn't.

Ao'nung POV:
I noticed Neteyam's weird behavior the moment he asked me what we did last night. Now he's being sassy in the GC. He suddenly rose up and looked up to me. "Pinch me." "What?" "I said pinch me!" I raised my brow and walked closer to him. I pinched his ear. "Ah!"My lover started crying. "Hey, hey.. what's wrong?" I rubbed his ear, where I pinched it. He wiped his tears and hugged me tight, like there was no tomorrow. "I just had a really bad dream." He replied to me, his voice was breaking. "It's alright Ma'Teyam. You're here with me." I let him bury his face in my chest, his tears flowing freely.
"You're here with me, it was just a nightmare. I'm here. Okay?" I pulled away, squeezing his cheeks together. Neteyam wiped his tears and nodded.
In my personal opinion, it was too early for this sad shit honestly. But this was my husband, I can't say no if he's emotionally or physically hurt, can I?
