Chapter 10 - Chapter 10 – Clock is ticking 

"I despise Shiro as well, I have been living with her from when we were born as a 'failed experiment' to now, which is 17 years later," the girl yapped. "Nice. Do you really despise her or do you see her as a sister", I said. This is time to clock out in mind of Shiro, but I have a feeling she's going to get me on her good side again. Really… she was my crush I think… 'was'.  

We started making our way through the woods till we reached a nice, warm cottage. It reminded me of the cottage, where I had stabbed myself. Panic washed all over me. What if Shiro is inside, what if she hates me. Wait no… she pushed me down first. I inhaled a deep breath and started making my way towards the cottage with the 'midnight girl'. 

A sudden flame burned the trees into ash. I was stunned. What is possibly happening? The crows cawed away while the birds chirped in fear. I stood there, my pupils in shock. I saw Shiro in the woods crying with a boy near her, about my age, at the tree trunk. I pulled my hand away from Shiro's sister or enemy and sprinted to her. "SHIRO", I screamed. Shiro looked up from where her head was buried into her knees. Who knows if I am obsessively in love with her? No one can or will understand me in a lifetime. I stared at her, eyes bulging in hot, steamy tears. I was one metre away from her, the boy grabbed her by the cheek and kissed her on the mouth. My heart ached for a while, but I had the urge to run up and tell her that "I'll always be by your side... forever".  

He pulled her in for a long kiss as I just stood there, dumbfounded by my own actions. I heard someone continuously breathing behind me, so I turned around, and there she was. Midnight girl, help me I'm drowning, as the understanding of my thread was escaping from Shiro. "AHHH" my knees gave out and I collapsed to the ground like I've always had. I knew I could feel the striking tension between us for a long time, since the past to the present. "YOU FUCKING BITCH, WHAT DID YOU TAKE ME AS," I yelled angrily, my tears turned cold. Heart shattered, broke, and the last thing I could think of was 'stupidly' Shiro. 

My head hurts. I'm drowning in a sand pit or a deep, dark, flooding ocean. Shi- Shiro. How? "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!" I screamed, my throat felt dry the more I spoke, the less I felt hydrated... 

Shiro giggled as her tear floated through the air. I stared at her with a warm smile. "If I didn't mean anything to you, then what was I? An object, a toy... ANSWER ME," my eyes didn't tear up anymore, the sadness flooded, and emptiness was all that remained. Who knows who can return my sad and happy times. 

I shook my head in disbelief. As I turned around, the Autumn leaves shifted into snow, and the breeze was wintry. 

The more I thought about it, the more hatred I gave myself. I was never the type of person to ever trust anyone. I would always mind my own business. Why would I ever have to deserve this?
