He was sad.
Most of the time he'll just glance through the window, glancing down at all the things he missed during his childhood.
He was lonely.
Not a single visitor, not a single person coming to visit him and ask if he was okay.
But that was norm...

The scarf around my neck was untied as it dropped down on the floor.
I glance up at the pale skinned man with gray hair and grill in his teeth that held me hostage.
I glance around the dark empty basement then at the light which was up top of my head, only shining on me and leaving the rest of the room dark.
"What? Are you searching for your lil' girlfriend?" I didn't reply to him but he already knew the answer.
"She's right there." He said, nodding his head in the direction she was in.
"Roder—" I glance up at Alazne who held the gun against my skin.
"I'm so sorry," She apologize, "I didn't want it to go down this way —"
The man quickly interrupted her, "Shoot him." He spat.
Alazne hands tremble as she stare at me with watery eyes.
"I can't." She whisper.
The man approach her, snatching the gun from her hand as he aggressively push her against the wall and hold it against her neck.
"Your a piece of shit if you let me kill you for him." He said, "He deserves to die!" He yell at her.
"Think about it," He move closer to her as he move over to her ear.
"He kill your boyfriend which was my brother, do you think that was right? Do you think he doesn't have to pay for that?"
She nod, and the man back away from her — handing her the gun.
She aim the gun at me as she tightly shut her eyes.
"I'm sorry." She whisper, quickly moving the gun away from me and aiming at the man before shooting in seconds.
The man chuckle, Alazne eyes widely open after wondering why he wasn't dead.
"I — I shot you!" She panic as she back away from him.
"Your a fucking ass to think I would put any bullets in there." He chuckle, taking out a bullet from his pocket as he wave it around in his hands.
He take the gun out of her hands as he quickly put in the bullets.
"Say your goodbyes."
I turn to Alazne as she whisper the words, 'I'm sorry' to me.
The man held the gun to my head, a smile of vengeance wrap around his lips as he stare at me.
"I'll revenge my brother." He whisper, the loud exploding thing from the bullet the only thing I heard after.
Death waited for me, leaning against the black gates as he smile when I approach him.
"You called?" He ask as he smile at me.
"Sorry I got to your request so late, though." He continue on as he unlock the gate and waited for me to enter.
I swallow the lump in my throat, knowing everything in the real world was over for me and Alazne never got to experience a relationship with me.

I gasp as I scream Roder's name but he was gone without saying a single word.
I no longer had the option to hold him — to show him true love.
All that was quickly taken away by the wish he wanted so long ago.
To die.
The man gaze went up to me, swinging the gun in his hands as he approach me.
"I really don't have time to play with you." He said as I back away from him.
I went up the stairs, trying my best to open the door or at least break it down but I failed.
He smile at me, "Goodbye, Alazne." He said as he aim the gun at me from at the bottom of the stairs.
I was trap, I had no where to go.
Roder was dead and I was going to be also.
I watch as my whole life flash before my eyes, "I love you, Roder." Was the only words that escape my mouth.
Something I couldn't ever bring the courage to when he was alive.
Although we didn't spend much time together as I wish, although we didn't completely fulfill my promise; we still had one heck of an amazing time together.
