Wakes up.

Looks around.

Sees dark and kinda-the-inside-of-a-well kinda place.

Digs nails into stones.

Gets depressed of ever getting out.

Meets someone.

That someone helps.

That someone becomes special.

That someone dies.

Falls back down to the bottom.

Cries the well back up.

The water starts rising.

Starts swimming to the top.

Sees family.

Family is like the warm sun.

Cold in the murky water of tears.

Family gets angry.

Family dries up water.

Slowly sinks back to the bottom.

Sees best friend.

Best friend looks down with sad eyes.

Best friend gets up.

Best friend leaves.

Has no more tears to cry.

Has no more voice to use.

Has no more life to live.

Wants to die.

Is gonna die, anyways.

Weeks later.

Tired.

Hungry.

Thirsty.

Weak.

A flickering shadow.

Looked up.

The stranger.

The familiar.

The...

The best friend.

Tears fall down.

Tears hit the mask.

Something else falls too.

A rope.

Screaming.

Crying.

Both are sorry.

Both want to help.

Both don't want to blame.

The girl in the well.

Is finally back.

*****

See you.
