It's been almost a week since I lost my voice. I skip training and don't leave my room unnecessarily and wear a hoodie with a collar that hides the burn. My throat still hurts which is why I can't eat much because I will start coughing blood. the movement of the collar hurts my throat so I had to put a bandage on it. the others are starting to realize that something is going on. I have heard conversations where they ask Jay what exactly happened but he gives the same answer. 

¨we had a fight that got a little out of hand, nothing bad¨

'nothing bad... NOTHING BAD'

he took the only thing I love about myself! Now I'm nothing but a burden. I started to cry for the hundredth time. Now my eyes have already turned red, and the skin around my eyes is irritated by the constant rubbing. I hear my stomach go as a sign that I need to eat something again. I haven't eaten anything all day, my throat hurts too much. When I eat now I scratch my throat open. I try to ignore the feeling but it only gets worse as my stomach starts to contract, signaling me to hurry up and eat something.

I can't stand it anymore as I slowly sit up in bed. my body feels so weak, I try to stand but fall through my legs. I look at my bedside table where my intercom is located. If I can just grab it, I'll click on the speaker for a message. to ask if someone can bring me something. but when I reach for it it's too far away.

¨...¨

If I ask someone to bring me something, questions will be asked. I better try it myself. I give it another try and my legs are a bit stronger now and are good enough to walk on for a short distance. I opened my door and saw if the coast was clear. luckily no one was there. I start to make my way slowly to the kitchen where I immediately start making a plate of food. All different things with different textures. When I was done and just wanted to go back, of course, the rest had to come in.

C-¨Kai!?¨

When the others realize that I am there too, I quickly grab the plate and get out of there. When I put the plate down on the bedside table I fell through my legs, that was the last bit of energy I had, and used it to get back here faster.

After a while of rest, I started eating small amounts. the feeling didn't go away. my throat screamed with every bite I took soon I started coughing... I looked at my hand... blood. I ignored it as I continued eating. If I don't get enough now, I won't make it to the next morning. After a while, the coughing stopped and the pain diminished. I felt something wet go from my mouth to my chin, I wiped it away, and... blood. I get up slowly and walk to the mirror by the sink.

blood...

blood everywhere...

from my mouth to my chin is covered in blood. I open my mouth to see my throat but there is nothing to see... all you can see is the red color of blood. I start to feel dizzy and I imagine a loud bang before everything goes black
