After 3 days of waiting for my letter to arrive the familiar envelope stay a still  in my hands, I smiled, happy to have a connection with another human being besides Gwen.

I yawned as I tore the envelope open, throwing the paper remains onto the floor, not giving a damn it would make my room more of a mess then it already was.

Dear [L/n],

Ah, what an interesting quirk. It must taste terrible though I remember once when I was young I took a bite of a candle on accident. The wax tasted terrible. It's weird how your hands would turn to wax. How does it feel? And yes you can ask me anything [L/n].

Dearest regards~ Tokoyami

The letter was short but it was still enjoyable, I then noticed a smudge of ink at the bottom, I looked closer, behind the scribble of ink seemed to be the words ' Hi! ' I tilted my head. Must've been someones perspective of a joke to mess with his letter,

I put the letter next to the rest, grabbed a piece of lined paper, a pen, and started writing.

Dear Tokoyami,
It feels weird, and if my hand is covered in some type of cold glove that doesn't let your hand move. And as for my question.......how can I tell if a friend of mine is doing alright? My friend...she doesn't seem like herself lately...I really need some help on this...

From, [L/n]

I could almost feel the tears pricking my eyes, even a few tears dripped onto the paper. I was worried about Gwen...I wanted her to be ok.

It seemed like as if though I was being pulled to deliver it at that moment, despite how lazy I was. I stood up from my desk and began my way to the post office.

On my way I felt a pain in my chest, girls my age and woman older then me were being cat called, I even witnessed some guy slap his wife. America may seem beautiful from the outside, but the inside it terrible.

I wonder what Japan is like? Is it better? Maybe in my next letter I'll ask Tokoyami. When I entered the post office the line was quite long, I stood in the line, awaiting my turn.

I then caught sight of a girl with navy hair and pale skin. It was Gwen. But...she looked terrible. Her hair was a rat's nest, her clothes were ripped and muddy, her eye bags were terrifying, she was shaking, and she seemed to be bruised all over.

" Gwen?! " my sudden voice shocked the girl in front of me, she turned towards me, her eyes widening, before I could speak, she ran out of the post office.

I ran after her.

" Gwen!! " The letter dropped and I quickly picked it up, by the time I looked up Gwen had dissapeared into the evening rush of crowds, people trying to get home, and some running to places they shouldn't.

I stood there, looking like an absolute lunatic. My eyes were wide and people's shoulders hit mine, some accidents, some on purpose, I quickly ran to the post office, mailed my letter, and ran back home.

As soon as I reached home I slammed the apartment door shut, making sure to lock it, I then grabbed my phone and googled something I never thought I would;

" Why is my friend ignoring me and acting weird? "

Gwen and I had been friends forever, she has never ignored me, or acted this weird. Sure she acted like that before she moved in with me but ever since she left she's been exceptionally weird. She stopped coming to school as well.

I was worried for her..
