"Everything is temporary and everyone is scared of death. That tree you're standing by, the sidewalk you're currently walking on, the desk you're sitting at, the table in front of you, the stranger standing beside you and everything else in between is temporary. But most importantly? Our lives. Everyone's life is temporary. That's why everyone is scared of death. As some of us may welcome death with open arms individually because we know we will die eventually, we may not wish or welcome it upon others we love. We've gotten so close to so many people on this earth that it hurts to see them disappear. But myself? I wish I was dead and that life wasn't given to me because like I said, it's temporary. People aren't going to be sad about my death for the rest of their lives. That's temporary as well. The sadness you feel will all be gone eventually and living on this earth knowing I will die eventually and people will get over my death soon makes me want to die."

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]]
