I love you, I'm sorry
chapter 06 | real life , flashback

" feels like we buried alive,
something that never died.
so god, it hurt when i found out. "



























" 20 minutes to show time, " the camera crew's voice rang through the speakers.

20 minutes till the stream of models would walk the runway.

to walker's disappointed, there were no changes. no nothing. everything was perfect, everything always had been perfect.

how did she manage to make five designs in 2 days? he worried for her about her overworking. he always did, even when they were silly eight year olds playing tag at the park.

sofia always had to be perfect. in his eyes, she always was perfect. every step she took, she took it with grace. every design she made, it was to the precise detail. every single thing she did, she always had the flair in her that made everyone watch.

and that made him worried. that someday, the spark in her would die, the need to strive would disappear along with the ashes of her hard work.

but it also made him worried that people would look too closely for his liking. because those parts, those vulnerable parts, were theirs. it wasn't a secret, but the flames, the sparks that she had for her passion, it was theirs — along with his spark of acting.

he worried that someday, if she lost herself, he would too. because they're connected by a glowing invisible string that once one cuts it off, the glow of the string dies. they die. they lose themselves, and their other half.

which brought him back to the question — why was she so distant now? why didn't she reply to his letters? why did she not inform him of her new phone number, which he had yet gotten? and the letters? the ones he sent for her every week, her birthday, and the invitation to the adam project's release party?

and most importantly, why, when everything was going so smoothly, did she leave?

why did she cut off her side of the glowing string?













































WALKER SCOBELL, AGE 11

play THE EXIT
by conan gray

" i'm moving to europe next week, " young sofia sat opposite of young walker on a wooden bench table , taking a bite of the store bought sandwich that her mom packed for her.

the bench table was a random one placed in the far corner of their school, just far enough and surrounded by bushes to get away from the other kid's sights but near enough to hear the chatters and squeals from the playground beside them.
