The thumps grew louder and louder.... I could say it was approaching my room.... The noise of the creaking floorboards grew louder as the person cackled....

Every step they take is closer to my demise.... I was going to die an unfateful death at the age of 15....

But then.... What good was living?.... There's nothing to live.... For and nothing to die for.... So... Isn't dying the same as living?
The cold streets buzzed it's silence....

I heard a knock on my door....
My nerves entangled itself in a web of conflict.... The knocks got more and more loud...
Suddenly, I noticed the Pistol, which was sitting on the table....

I gripped it with my shivering hands....
Sweat poured down my forehead as I slowly, opened the door....
The grotesque sight made me Jump two floors backward....

I saw the figure as Moonlight etched in....

It was Kotori-San.... My mother....
Her head detached from her neck, her lifeless eyes locking on to me... Her hand hung from her arm.... And her blood and body gel kept flooding everywhere she went...
"Sa-K-u-rachan"
She whimpered my name like a dying dog.....
The light of the moon got completely covered by clouds, leaving a room as a dark landscape....

Before I knew it, fear had engulfed my mind... I pulled the trigger forcefully until the gun was out of ammo.....

My mom lay, lifeless on the bedroom floor.... The orange colored floor turned red...

With my body shivering like never before, I slowly turned the light on....

She was no longer able to get up....
My stomach churned against my nerves....
'This is not reality....'
I... Murdered both my parents... In cold blood.... But.... Did I have a choice..... Could I take anything back?
Is there anything in everything?

My room gave me a depressing feel....
It felt like the room of a person who had lost everything including themselves....

What was happening in this world was beyond comprehension.... No human could piece anything together because..... Once a man achieves all knowledge in the world.....he will go insane....

I couldn't keep calm anymore....
My mind was guilt ridden...
I was going eccentric....
Everything seemed to blur out before me....
