Three years.....three freaking years. I've been alone. I remember, because I can't forget. I can't shake the memories away like dust from a rug. It kind of.... lives inside you... kind of destroys you from the inside out. It hasn't destroyed me yet. I've seen it destroy others though. Like my neighbor, Linda. She had a son and a husband. A life, really, but it all flew out the window. She's gone now. She left this world, when she put a loaded pistol to her temple and fired. She crumpled to the ground and I watched her do it. I watched her fall, but I tried to stop her. My mom had known her, even before I was born. My mom is gone now too. Monsters with human faces, well.... partially. It's probably unfair, because they used to have lives, but I can't help it. Eventually though I'll become one, because everyone's luck runs out.
