Living life is hard when it hurts to live. 

Welcome to My Mothers Wish Box, can we keep this our secret...? I think it'd hurt her if she knew I'd found it. 

*TRIGGER WARNING*

EXCERPT:


my girlfriend approached me. 
a lust in her eyes i always misunderstood. 
she'd hug me, 

she'd kiss me, 

she'd tell me she loved me. 



she said that's why she'd hit me, 

why she'd slap me, 

why she'd cut me. 

but it was ok. 

Because
 She 
Loved 
Me.

29 parts Complete

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
