First person P.O.V


Eda watched Lucia sigh and sip on her beer, she sighs and looks into lucia's eyes, the eyes of a broken person putting on a act.

Eda: come on kid, brighten up you always know I hate seeing you sad  

she says with a small smile. Lucia looks up at Eda with no trace of a smile on her face at all. her eyes looking dull and depressed and her mind not completely there.

Lucia: how can I not be sad .... their screams and suffering lives on in my head, It's not like a wound on you body, it'll never heal ... thats what I think

she says with sorrow in her voice, she takes a deep breath in and looks back down onto the wooden bar, seeing her face reflect back to her in one of the beer spills that  laid on the surface of the bar 

Eda: oh kid, do you talk to anyone else about this?   

Lucia: I've said before, no one understands us, no one knows what went on, they think it was a smooth victory, but no! it was no where near that! t-there was blood a-and screams a-a-and bombs, fire, a-and gas

Lucia spurts out her mind racing back into the war, everything playing out in her head, her breathing speeds up, and her eyes fill with tears. 

Eda: l-lucia? 

Eda takes a step towards Lucia not knowing on what to do, as soon as she sees some tears fall onto the bar she freezes up. 

Lucia: n-no no one knows! no one cares! to them were all insane! not right in the bloody head! THEY KNOW NOTHING!

Lucia yells, grabbing her bottle and throwing it at a wall, it shatters and sends glass flying from the wall and onto the floor. Lucia tests her head in her hands and softy weeps to herself . Eda just stands there in shock, she's never seen Lucia act like that before, her heart aches with sorrow for her, she wishes she could help Lucia but she has nothing, for once in her life she doesn't know how to help her.

Eda: l-lucia are yo-

Lucia: i-it happened again ... I'm sorry

Eda: no don't be, you're just dealing with things...

Lucia: I've been dealing with things for a year now, I thought these images would just go away, but they keep om getting worse, I attacked Wionna, Eda ... i'm a mess, my mind is a mess 

Lucia gently continues to softly cry, her tears dropping onto the bar and running down her cheeks, her breathing calms down along with her mind, the screams and gunfire slowly become muffled and soon silent. 

Eda: kid, I suggest you talk to someone, you have a girlfriend right? talk to her

Lucia: i'll just worry her more, she's already seen me in a few of my episodes

Eda: well i'm sure she wants to help you in some way, just give it a go

Lucia: ... all right

Lucia wipes her eyes and looks up at Eda, she then looks over to the bottle the threw across the room. 

Lucia: a-ah .... h-how much was that? 

Eda: ... oh don't you worry about it .,.

Lucia then slides off her seat and stretches her legs a bit and looks at Eda, giving her a soft and very forced smile.

Lucia: well I better be off, its getting late and well you know how the streets get at night 

Eda: oh yes you are right, have a safe walk home Lucia

Lucia: thanks Eda, .... and thank you for the talk I needed it 

Eda: well you did all the talking, I just listened 

Eda gent chuckles as waves Lucia off, Lucia give her a quick wave goodbye and walls out of the pub. she takes a breath of the "fresh" air and starts to walk home. she walks down the road, watching the streets become dark and the street lamps getting turned on but a guy and his ladder. she then reaches a cross road and takes the corner onto the street her house was on. she walks over to her house and makes it to the door rather quickly and unlocks the door. 

She pushes it open. hearing the creak of the hinges screak as it opens. she takes a few steps inside and spots a letter laying on the floor, behind the door. 

Lucia: hm? when ever there is a letter it's never good 

Lucia gently groans as she bends down and picks up the letter, she then walks over to her sofa, holding the letter in her hand, inspecting the envelope. she then throws herself onto the sofa with a soft sigh, she then opens the envelope and reads the letter.

dear Lucia

hello darling, I wish I could of tolled you in person but I thought it would be a good idea if you met my younger brother, you both were in the war so maybe he can help you ... or well you help him. so maybe tomorrow you can meet him

                                                                                                          From, Amelia 

ps: he has a fear of fire so don't light a candle or a fire

Lucia finishes reading a places the letter on her coffee table

Lucia: hmmm well the only sibling of hers I've met has been Amity ... I think 

she then shrugs the thought off and tries to relax for a bit, leaning back on her sofa and closing her eyes.
