Brett's POV

She saw me.
But that's okay.
I couldn't give a care
In this whole stinking universe.

He keeps yelling.
Yelling.
And yelling.
And yelling.

He never stops.

I hear his feet coming after me, and I look up into her eyes. They're about as pained as mine. There's no sign of weakness in her, and I wonder where it came from. Because he tears mine right out of me.

I smile at her
As the tears slip onto my sleeve.
They shatter as they hit the window sill-- right on my favorite picture.

I close the curtain
Right before everything fades.
