I scribble small signs in my notebook, waiting for the class to end. It was relatively quiet, all other students were taking notes or just daydreaming. I glance up at a desk in the front with an empty seat. She's not present for the second day. Shame. I didn't want to take long picking someone, since dad is very persistent and impatient. I don't want to get involved with his work as much as possible. And while my perception of everyday occurences have been altered over the past two years, I stand with my belief that what he does is inhumane. But with a boring life like this, it is.. intriguing. I pull out my phone from under the desk as I text her, asking if she would like to meet up later today. She responds quickly, stating a time and place. Good to know she's still alive and in good enough health to write back in seconds. I guess she's not affected yet.

Everyone thinks he should have recovered after that much time, but Allan still haunts Elliot every night. He struggles to maintain relationships with his family, and despite a coworkers interest he can't summon up the courage to date. Elliot is living for the past, because to live for the present means he'll have to live with a hole in his heart. But the question Elliot has to face chases him through his monotonous days: is mourning Allan with everything he has truly living? [[word count: 40,000-50,000 words]]
