BEYOND LIFE || ADAPTATION

Chapter 1.

November 7, 2017.

Life has no more meaning in that moment when you loose all the illusion of being eternal. I told myself that, as an attempt to not fall into my depression, the walls are a very good company when the only thing that is there for you is loneliness, and the echo that rumbles into your ears.

I live in a nightmare from which i occasionally wake up as if it was just a dream, all i want in life is that all this pain to have a purpose. I am in this point were i feel as if i was a prisoner, but i know I'm the jailer.

I hope that, wherever you are someone could be able to give you this letter, it would be a pity that no one could read such words, I'm pretty sure that, at some point in someone's life, whoever you are, even if years have passed, you could read this, and if you are suffering just like i am, i hope you can deal with it in the best way possible, i admit I'm a coward when someone pronounces the word "Life."

Don't you think its creepy? just imagine, we are all programmed to do what we are supposed to do, and if you don't do it, society will make you just feel as you are nothing, it's sad to have a label in your life.

-Jungkook.

In some way, all this felt so familiar, wake up and take a shower, eat breakfast  and cross that bridge that divides the city with the village.

-Being in the same routine sucks. - I thought as i crossed over the Stone bridge that might well swear it felt as i was crossing over the Chinese Wall, the cold could feel through my body just like slashes, even though i was wearing a jacket, the fog was beginning to fall more and more making the streets turn into grey, the smell of wet pine was invading my nose.

To be truly honest, also the day was feeling just as a routine, i walked on the bridge and turned to the right so i could wait for the bus, that would take me to work.

I decided to take my mobile but as usual i had no messages from nobody. It was quite illogical and funny for me, to have a mobile, i didn't have no Friends or family to contact, i just used it for my job.

While i was checking an e-mail from a client all of a sudden i could feel a look over me , i raised my head a little bit to make sure and indeed, a stranger with gold hair was in front of me, to be honest just a bit inches from my face.

-Can i help you with something?- There was no response, he was just staring directly onto my face as if he was just inspecting something. The unknown person, just turned around and he left directly to were he had just came.

- I'm sure he just wanted some cash .- I snuffled, and just continued to check the emails.

The bus didn't take more tan 10 minutes to come, so i got on it and left to work.

The company that i  worked for, was just to keep my mind occupied, every single day i hated being here, i will sit down and greet every person that came in, as if i liked them. I knew what they would talk about me and my father, and it wasn't like if they would talk about it in a low voice, i knew i did not belong here, but i had no choice i would just have to keep counting all the money of these arrogant people.

Finally after being here all day i checked the hour and saw it was already nine thirty, i took my jacket, turned off the computer and i decided to go home. The cold was impressive, and it wasn't even Winter.

- Ugh, my butt is going to freeze. - I thought.

I took the bus that would take me home, i stopped to buy some canned food, i turned around towards to the bridge, i immediately stopped, in that bridge, in this cold night, a guy with some old fashion shorts was there.

This just made me stay still, he made a snowflake, it's a jump from a figure skating that was invented by the Norwegian Axel Paulsen, it is one of the most hardest jumps and it has three versions (Simple, double, and triple.) its defined by the number of rotations you make in the air (Lap and a half, two and a half, or three and a half.) He starts slipping forward and falls back word with his opposite foot.

- Do you want to die?!- I shouted as much as i could, the ice seemed like it would break in any second, and the stranger didn't even give a shit.

He turned around, and looked to both sides like as he was trying to find the voice that was talking to him, but instead he tripped making himself fall and roll over the ice.

- ¡Oh shit!- i shouted as i saw how he fell.

I jumped the bridge and fell slipping through the fence that divided us.

- Hey, wake up, are you okay?- I said as i took that stupid boy by the head.

That day, in this cold night, in this place were the ice could break in any second, the stupid boy just answered.

-I can ask you the same thing, do you wanna die?-
