📺 Only What I See 🐚

1:13 AM

I didn't know if she'd die. I don't know how natural toons would react to just a couple bottles or Vodka. I knew she'd pass out, but I didn't expect her to vomit on me in her sleep? It got all over my suit.. this was gonna be painful to clean out.

Tisha had always been so productive, always ontop of the things she needed to do. But everyone has their limits. It just took her a few more drinks to get her there, and now, as I stare at the taped up box, it felt almost ironic. She was usually the one cleaning up messes.. and now she is one.

The elevator reached it's destiny, with a soft ding. I pushed the box to a lesser seen area, securing it there.

"Sleep tight, Tisha."

I made my way back to the elevator, off to my room.

7:26 AM

BEEP BEEP BEEP

The robot toon booted up, and everything around her still remained extremely quiet. The toons werent yelling about how Tisha wasn't here, they didn't even seem to notice it. It was amazing.

Vee walked into the elevator, clicking to floor 1. Once she arrived she strolled to the kitchen, opening the fridge where there was a plate of cookies, with a note reading "21 cookies for each toon! Please only take one!" With a little strawberry doodle on the side.

"Why.. would I need a cookie??" Vee asked to herself, soon just shrugging it off. She took one cookie and went back to the elevator

I made my way to the warehouse, but I noticed something.. it wasn't as silent anymore. There was muffled kicking and screaming "I need to add more tape.." I sighed.
I approached a box, nudging it lightly before opening it.

"You want food right?"

I asked, ripping the tape off of Tisha's mouth "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?" She shouted at me, her voice was earbleeding.. hated listening to it.

"Me? There's nothing wrong with me. I'm just keeping you away from her."

"Her?? Who's her?"

She paused, seeming like she was puting pieces together.

"Shelly? THIS IS ABOUT SHELLY? ARE YOU SERIOUS?"
Tisha shouted even more, Jesus.. this woman never shuts up. "I didn't even do anything to her??"

"You know what you did."

I replied to her, coldly.

"What'd I do? All I did was be there for her and-

"—and that's the exact problem!" I interrupted her "She doesn't need you.. you're just a distraction, something I need to get rid of."

Tisha's eyes widened, I could see how frustrated she was; it was almost funny "A distraction? You think if you just take me out the picture she'll just want to magically talk to you?!"

"You know why she ignores you, Vee?"

..

"Why?"
