'I looked down at the hills and fields below from where I was standing; I could feel the cool breeze blowing toward me, sending chills down my spine. A billion thoughts were making my head spin, I felt no fear, even though my greatest fear was heights. Right now, nothing could stop me. I just wanted to let go of it all, just to close my eyes and fall. I stretched out my arms, ready to fall forward to the bottom of the cliff from where I was standing. This was always my favourite spot, I had always ridden my bike here even from when I was young. And now, it would be the last place I ever was. I began to fall forward. I closed my eyes and felt myself be taken by the wind as I fell. It's too late now. This is the end for me I thought to myself as I got closer to the ground. I opened my eyes; Closer, closer..... It all went pitch black.'

It used to calm him down, singing soft lullabies whenever nightmares haunted him, or telling stories to him and his brother. It was the only comfort he could rely on. And he ended it before it could poison him. Silence filled the vast empty space. Only a single Rowan tree swayed in the non existent wind, its branches reaching down where the two figures sat, sheltering them from any harm that may come their way. It was time to leave this place again. He couldn't stay here for long. He hugged his knees tight, unconsciously swaying back and forth as he did so. Maybe, if he hugged himself hard enough, he could stay here and listen to one of her stories again? Just one short story. His efforts were in vain. He realized that when his hands and feet started to disappear, just like they have done thousands of times before. There was no way things could continue the way they were now. He knew he had to stop, but a selfish part of him was still holding onto that hope that everything would be okay once he opened his eyes. „Auntie,", he said, preparing his next words. „I... really prefer sunrises." 0101011101101111011100100110110001100100011100000110110001100101011000010111001101100101011100110110000101110110011001010110110101100101
