Lin checks the time.
10:37
The show starts in less than ten minutes.
It's not her fault.
It's mine.
No Charlotte.
He doesn't blame her.
He blames himself.
They'll never be the way they were.
The warning bell clings.
He's such an idiot!
Then, his phone rings.
______________
Charlotte grips her phone, ready to yell and cry.
But she doesn't.
Her eyes stay dry.
Lin picks up the phone.
"I quit."
And she lets it all go.
She thought about it a lot.
But She's finally done it.
She's thrown away her shot.
______________
Darren makes coffee.
He needs to buy a new phone.
Why should he?
His followers won't leave him alone.
He lost the only girl.
The only girl he loved in the world.
There's nothing other than hurt and sadness in this miserable world.
______________
Addie tries to be reasonable with them.
Tell them it's just a misunderstanding.
But nobody listens.
She comes home with an empty hand.
She begs Charlotte not to do it.
Yet, she quits all the same.
She begs her not to give up.
But that's just not the game.

Kaydance is feeling strange.
She doesn't know how to feel.
She can't decide her emotions.
Her brain's a spinning wheel.
She calls and texts, but no one picks up.
She's only just gotten home.
And her minds all made up.
_______________
People ask how they are.
They all say the same.
That their hearts are burning.
Yet, all with the same flame.
