...

What if it doesn't work?

What if it's all for nothing, everything I've done so far? 

All that planning, all that effort...all of it down the drain. 

...

What if I can't go back?

...

What if I actually died that day?

...Andskotinn.

My head hurts.

...Seriously, why won't this fucking headache just bugger off already?!

"A sponsor?" Khun repeated incredulously, his voice rising, "Do you have a death wish or something?"

"What? No- No, of course not!" Baam replied in a shocked voice, his eyes widening.

"Well, that's what it sounds like to me." Khun stated.

"...Sunna has one." Baam muttered under his breath, sulking in his chair.

"...What?" Khun's voice took on a troubled tone. He seemed taken aback.

"...A sponsor. Sunna has one." Baam repeated a little louder.

Is she out of her damn mind?!

"Which Family?" Khun asked, gritting his teeth in frustration.

"...What?" Baam replied with a somewhat confused expression.

"Which Family is offering to sponsor her?" Khun repeated, irritation seeping into his tone.

"Oh, um...the Lo Po Bia Family, I think?" Baam replied, sounding unsure.

Khun groaned.

Of all the stupid choices...She just had to choose that one!

I mean, out of all the Family Heads, the Lo Po Bia Family Head is the most loyal to Zahard!

Khun felt like banging his head against the wall.

Why is she so stupid?! In fact, she's so stupid, it's suspicious.

...

Khun narrowed his eyes, frowning.

"...Khun?" Baam said, confused, gazing at Khun innocently.

...

...

"...You turtles are pathetic. There is no need to be intimidated by the Ten Great Families or whatever. I mean, they're all just lousy turtles anyways. Just look at the blue turtle...Absolutely useless!" Rak bellowed across the room, effectively breaking the tension.

"Why you little shithead!-"

"Who are you calling little! You-"

"Try to get some rest, Baam."

"Yeah, you too, Khun."

"...Emotional turtles."

*Click*

Baam's smile slipped from his face.

"Haa..."

Keep it together. Baam thought to himself, biting the inside of his cheek.

He sat down on the edge of his bed and stared at the floor.

It'll go away, eventually...It has to.

He began bouncing his leg up and down.

I just have to hang on till then.

His leg stopped bouncing.

...And then she won't ever leave me again.

His leg resumed its bouncing.

...

I can't afford to repeat the same mistake in front of her.

I wish I had that kind of talent :-(

Anyways, I'm thinking of watching the movie train to Busan tonight...but I just know I'm gonna regret it. Last time I watched a zombie movie I had nightmares for two weeks.

...

Maybe I'll just watch cells at work.
