I stared down at the dream pool, my empty reflection waiting. The only place I could summon her.

Her laughter echoed around me. The sound sad clowns make when they're happy. A choked chortle that vibrated through me. A drowned creature reaching out to me.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUosxswHAhz
"I thought you loved me."
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDoOZcTbSi
"I did - I, I do!"
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2QQXOZ9vv
I stared down at the pool, my reflection changed to that of her. The halo of blond curls. The blue eyes that glinted with angry tears.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoD9qTe6jj
"You left me behind."
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdOkMmuG1i
"You refused to move!"
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETYUzcpxvi
She laughed bitterly.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZvgZePW7x
I reached down to her, my hands grasping water and loss.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyFcHnqsBT
"Do you miss me?" She asked me, ignoring how my fingers skewed through her.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhegOwubsvI
I lifted my hand, cupping her face. For a moment she smiled radiantly, the water veil shifting so I saw her true smile. The smile of my childhood heart. I felt nothing with my hands as my heart began to buckle under the sheer volume of her weightlessness. Her absence and presence choked me with fragile fingers.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDqgi8IJ2G
"I miss you the way children miss their comfort toys." The emotion burning through my brain leaked out of my eyes, the tears hissing as they hit the water.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGY0ufQwaD
She was pleased with my response, those hard eyes softening for just a moment. Long ago she held my hands and promised me the world. A world I never got to see.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbApKWtmgB
It crushed me. My chest feeling as though my rib cage was crossing over itself.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2Mtaa03Bc
"I love you." I whispered to my reflection. "You were my first love. No matter how poisoned or broken it was. You were what taught me that I could be picked first."
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLagHhUkY9
She giggled. My hand in the water cramped against her ghostly cheek.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeMxoi2eJz
"Do you ever think of me?" I murmured, my heart hammering.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCYkrdR7NG
She narrowed her eyes, tilting her head to the side so my wrinkling hand passed through her face.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8sNs3MkUN
"Why would I think of the one who left me behind? I was drowning in my choices. You left me there."
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7BBqtcz1e
"You didn't want to be reminded of my success! You said my light burned you. You. Left. Me."
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMuOoK0yh8
She stared at me with a sad smile. It tugged at her lips in a pained expression. My heart ached as it dripped blood into my body. Slow and sluggish.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4cYsLrFLy
"I miss you." I whispered harshly, "I miss us."
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4ibhtH493
That cruel, haughty laugh that used to chill my blood echoed through the water. Her hair slowly darkened as she grinned a toothy grin.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxulFicvHJA
She was my childhood coin. One side an angel. The other, the demon she never escaped.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡercWv4Lnam
"I know." She cackled.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlD8uNEIN6T
A hand shot out of the water, gripping my neck and pulling me forward so I stared inches from the water. I didn't struggle. Only committed her face to memory.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99pvT4PPn4
"May you miss me into the twilight of your life." She hissed.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4U0bKo7Ka
I woke up. Soaked in sweat.
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbX9ilZ0xGk
"So be it."
72Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29NU7Z9EbH
