Imitation • SaTzu [BOOK 2]

Whispers,

Whispers that they believe could not be heard by me.

But all those low whispers echoing behind the white, glooming walls. I can hear them clearly.

'Elkie has gone insane' they say

'What do we do doctor?' they say

They fell for my act.

All of them did.

They actually believe I have forgotten who I am.

_________

It's her,

Her

Her who I have claimed to be. Her who no longer should be roaming this world. Her who I share the same face with but not the same life.

My face filled with terror and confusing as my legs jerked up, coming to the same level as my sister.

Although we are identical twins, she held many features that I don't. Huge orbs, that can't compare to mine as they contain warmth that can spread to anyone who comes in contact with them. Black locks that rustle along with the cold breezing air. Nose quite bigger than mine but suits her face well. Let's not forget about her height, although i'm about inches smaller than her, I can't help but feel small around her presence.

Finally finishing my observation I came to realization that we are nothing alike. Our clothes having a drastic difference. Her voice sounding quite colder than mine but somewhat also soothing.

This girl in front of me is the one that Sana fell in love with not me.

"You finally know" she spoke, those big orbs of her focus on nothing but me.

"You finally know that you're not me"

Having lost all my energy to speak I slipped out a little 'how', hoping she would unsderstand my confusion, my seeking question that must be answered.

Knowing what exactly I meant, she released a low sigh as she ready herself for the words she would speak.

"I've been with you all this time" she began "All those feelings you felt, all those stinging, all those unexpected anger. All those emotions you had no clue of was me."

She paused for a moment, taking a time to a line her hair properly from attacked it receive from the gusty wind.

"You don't love Sana" she continued, voice somewhat struggling to keep calm. "You don't love Sana" she repeated, making me flinch at the statement and how she delivered it.

"You might think you do, but you don't. You just wanted her because you knew you couldn't have her, you knew her heart didn't belong to you, you knew that she wanted me."

I kept quiet, teeth digging down my already swollen lips. As all this information attack me with sharp like objects.

Pain, sadness, GUILT were already slumped on my shoulder, becoming heavier with each explanation.

"The day you claimed that you were me, the day you snatched the name Chou Tzuyu as yours, you knew. You knew that the name Tzuyu didn't belong to you, you knew it all along."

Tears trickled their way down my face, bringing me coldness as the breeze came in contact with them.

"W-Why?" i gripped tight to my shirt, trying to bare the light sting that swells through my throat.
