I run to what I call my home . I don't find anyone there . I frantically look around trying to find the object I am looking for . The object , that can help solve anything. As I lift the cushion on my futon in my bedroom , I find the small slit I made in the netting of the base . After I slide my hand into the hole , I pull out a small familiar box . Just big enough for 'jewelry' and 'money' . The fresh wooden box is right where I left it .

Untouched and familiar .

Except , there is something different when I rub my hand along the opening of the box and lift the lid. There lays in the box , a brand new shiny silver blade . My 'old' one had rust lining the top and a completely dull blade that made it harder. I lift up the unfamiliar object and unwrap it from the plastic . I slowly lift and begin to dig deep into the skin .

Deep.

Deeper.
