Though Tokyo bay was usually incredibly busy, Hyera had managed to find a quiet spot to let her mind unravel. It seemed as though the water was her biggest enemy and only savior, she felt confused, lost in between a mess of thoughts and emotions. She’d somewhat ADJUSTED to life here, but she still felt guilt, a nagging uncomfortable feeling that was slowly engulfing her insides.
The pebbles in her hand scratch against her skin as she looks up at the midnight sky, SORROW overtaking her features, this quickly dissipates into frustration, as she throws the pebbles up into the air, aiming to hit the sky and see a speck of a glitch, but she always fall short, the small stones promptly hitting the water and drowning to the bottom. So Hyera picks up some more pebbles, this time with more desperation, emotion making her hands shake and movements become more sloppy, she’s so tired, she’s so LONELY.
“Dear God, I don’t know where you are, but please, PLEASE, let me go home.”
She repeats the words over and over, voice verging on a shout, until footsteps force her to instantly quieten, head held low, shame is evident. “I keep thinking that I’ll wake up, that this is just a dream..;..I don’t know, why us? Why were we chosen? Someone please tell me what I did WRONG.”
