PROLOGUE

"Death doesnt just take someone, it misses someone else. And in that small distance between being taken and being missed, lives are changed."

~Iris~

It's cold.. it's always been this way for as long as I can remember, but this chill is'nt because of the balmy weather. It comes from within. It freezes me to my very core, numbs me.

I've learnt to welcome the cold over the years.Being desensitized is a means to an end, a survival tactic in a cruel world.

Not feeling means not hurting, I dont think I could stand more hurt. I'm physically bruised but that doesnt faze me, i'm emotionally shattered and what scares me is that I might spontaneously combust... or break down.

I cant let it happen either way, I cant show them how weak I am.
