"Hello."

" I'm so sorry. "

"Hello?"

"I have no idea why I went through with this..."

" Who is this? "

"But you can't kill yourself, Cyrus."

" Wait.. Is that you Keia? "

"Cyrus you can't do that to your family."

" What are you talking about? "

"Cyrus I love you too."

" Keia, if you love me you have to tell me where you are. "

"I can't."

" What? Why? "

"I..."

"Have you been kidnapped?"

" No, not again. "

"What do mean not again?"

" I have kidnapped before. I'm sorry I didn't tell
You this earlier, it just makes me
Remember everything wrong with the world... "

"Then don't tell me. I just need to know where you are so I can get you."

"No, I have to tell you."

" Now. "

"It's three in the morning and I can here you shivering. I will come and get you. Don't say anything that could possibly cause to to have an anxiety attack. "

"Cyrus, I was kidnapped when I was five years old."

" K-"

"It was the Street Lord. The guy who hires drug dealers and all those characters."

" Keia, you okay? "

"*starts a coughing fit*"

"Keia, you don't have to tell me now."

" *keeps coughing* "

"Are you still planning on killing yourself? You're incredibly sick, you have to save your voice and tell me where you are."

" ... "

"Keia, why have you gone quiet? Keia, did you choke? What happened?! I swear, if you're still committed to committing suicide I will take this call to the cops and they will track you down."

" He shaved my head. And-and he had my middle name tattooed
On it. Hhhh..heeee"

"Are you wheezing or are you being strangled? You sound like you're hyperventilating."

"My parents were let to take me home. I didn't know what it meant but he said he could always find me as long as I had it. It-it- really
Upset my family and they made swear that I make sure
No one ever sees it.
My mother always said never to trust anyone
Because a broken promise can never be glued back together."

" You're shivering uncontrollably, Keia, please tell me where you are. "

"I can't."

" WHY? "

"You won't l-l-l-like w-w-what you'll find."

" You can't expect me to leave you. "

"You won't, you'll never leave me."

" What are you implying, KJ? "

"And I'll never leave you."

" I know, just tel-"

"As long as you carry me in your heart."

" Wait what? You're not still going to die?! "

"I'm in love with you, Cyrus."

" Keia, I'm glad. But-"

"But it's time for you to connect the dots.."

" *heavy coughing* "

"What dots? Keia, are you dying? Do you have lung cancer ?"

" Good bye, Cyrus. "

"No. Not good bye. I refuse to let you hang up on me.
Please, tell me where you are."

" Oh, and Cyrus. I'm not pregnant. But thanks for the offer. "

"That's not funny. Where. Are. You."

" the forest floor.. "
