I'm somehow alive.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rsYiCdKLQ
It's strange... like I'm living in a dream.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6v2qvHPO5J
I feel my body isn't mine. Like I'm somehow in control of my body but from a third perspective. My mind isn't focusing on anything, just a numb feeling of emptiness.
While feeling like that the other day, my primal fear of actually losing everything managed to spur me to go out to buy food from the supermarket.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtxCzc0wIT
My savings were going down, fast. My fridge was empty, and ordering delivery was no longer a choice.
It was a long walk. I bought a bunch of microwave food and things that were easy to cook. The bag felt like a deadweight.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHAbvmc2FX
Have you ever felt so tired that you could just face-plant and fall asleep on the concrete?310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWtJb51PIs
Well, it was that kind of day. 310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBI5cSvqQA
As if the me watching from a third perspective had left the controller, and my character could no longer stand.
It was getting dark, so I sat down by a lamp post, and shut my eyes.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuuPSvkCR7

I didn't know how much time had passed, but a shake of my shoulders woke me up.
I don't really want to describe what happened next, but I guess I won't be around to feel embarrassed when anyone reads this.
"Hey, are you alright?"310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYZlyE13BL
A voice that sounded vaguely familiar. I remember glancing at my right hand, groggy. Right, I was shopping.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7E0w45r64
The sky had become pitch black, with the dim street lamps and the odd car being the only source of light.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2icqISS14
310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmLx4c2BVr
I remember hearing my name being called. Ah, crap.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFH0cq0OuX
I didn't want anyone to see me like this. At the lowest of the low. Pitying me, who doesn't deserve a drop of pity.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKRwlk8krI
Much less someone I know.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkFm3rpbto

"...Hey. Hey..."310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzEAkZUCs2
"I'm going to call someone, okay?"
"Don't."310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVb750f9Qz
I got up. Stumbled up. A little too fast - so I reached towards the post to steady myself again. But not before my arm was grabbed.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrueRa1tOl
310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuDee5TJCq
"You...!" 310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxziwYbwi7f
I remember cursing in my head.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHr1LKzn4R
Ah, fuck.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbBJRbGD8r
Fuck.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDVKa1uj9F
It had to be you, didn't it.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡophcWZOdR6

Looking back, I don't want to admit it, but if it were anyone else, I might not be here, writing this now.
But needless to say, I was looking at the face of Mr. Perfect.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ965mYcGPNX
Teacher's pet.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhknLN8cZM
The guy that effortlessly has people around him.310Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4DO7ndWoV
The class president.
