I hate myself. I want Ash to be free. All his life, he has been hiding. Me, Rowan, the second child, in his place. The ungodly horror called "myself" was supposed to be in hiding. We both were. Nobody was to know about either one of us. Until, one of the green shirts found me wondering and they found out about me. No one found out bout Ash. I had my lenses put in. He didn't. His kaleidoscopic eyes worry me. They make me guilty. He should be going to school. He should be making friends. Not neck deep in shame because he exists. He asks me about Joey. This boy I have a crush on. "What did he wear?" He'd alway say. No matter how hard I'd try, I could never remember. "Something blue." I'd tell him. "Lapis blue, sky blue, ocean blue?" He'd question. "The ocean dried out before the ecofail, dum dum"
