The Day My World Ended (28.13)


9.14.2020, Monday
Dear fellow bloggers,
I was unclear on what you wanted for the hard bonus. When I googled "Massive Attack Lyrics", I got a Nicki Minaj song. When I typed in "Massive Attack Band Lyrics", I got a list of songs from the band. I'm hoping you meant the band and not the song. If it is the song, the only lyrics I could pick out was: bla, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla. I mean, sure! I can continue my story either way. But if you meant the band, well then I pick the line "gentle impulsion" from the song "Teardrop".

Now, the easy bonus was...well...easy! I pick the title Split Second by David Baldacci

Right, then. Off I go, continuing my story.

Chapter 5
The Day My World Ended
Serena

Numb, that's an emotion, right? It's what I feel at the moment anyway.
For a split second, I try to think about what Stone might want from me. There's a gentle impulsion there deep inside me to ask.
But it's just a gentle impulse. I can't get my brain to make words.
I barely noticed Stone walking me up the stairs to a different room. I barely made out his words of food, or a gym that's downstairs. I stared blankly out the window, not noticing the curtains surrounding them. I barely noticed Stone as he left me to my thoughts.
To me, this was the day my world ended. Though, truth be told, I've been in denial for a very long time now. It would have only been a matter of time before I had to leave Colby anyway.
I mostly stayed because of his addiction, but he had this addiction long before I came into the picture. I truly have a knack for helping those that can't be helped. Maybe I can learn to help myself.
Eventually, I will have to talk to Stone. I will have to find out what happens now that I've turned. Maybe I could suppress the wolf for the moment. I know I can't hold her back much longer as my body temperature has started to change.

  1. Maybe she would have left Colby soon, but I'm sure she wanted to be her choice on her terms

    1. Perhaps. I think she should have left a lot earlier. Serena has a habit of giving too many chances.
