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.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI19HVqDuso
"I thought you loved me."
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqvkpkTe7R
"I did - I, I do!"
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NX4tTdp5j
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.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9qekuxVPq
"You left me behind."
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqUauoCuOs
"You refused to move!"
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcr9UoLj11f
She laughed bitterly.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mccAtAsqo
I reached down to her, my hands grasping water and loss.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreEX4IdqMV
"Do you miss me?" She asked me, ignoring how my fingers skewed through her.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2d9cXEeI6
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.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznIsknZ8Qo
"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.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtAuxx1uoo
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.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuURfIOqvRx
It crushed me. My chest feeling as though my rib cage was crossing over itself.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOzlQ6bKaw
"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."
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU90qrNyknO
She giggled. My hand in the water cramped against her ghostly cheek.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyH5wu9Ny2u
"Do you ever think of me?" I murmured, my heart hammering.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtwsWSapEf
She narrowed her eyes, tilting her head to the side so my wrinkling hand passed through her face.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtymXJ9ENPc
"Why would I think of the one who left me behind? I was drowning in my choices. You left me there."
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHCE1HQgCt
"You didn't want to be reminded of my success! You said my light burned you. You. Left. Me."
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVULA4vv1A
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.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKaw4y83rW
"I miss you." I whispered harshly, "I miss us."
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uHwwVUzfF
That cruel, haughty laugh that used to chill my blood echoed through the water. Her hair slowly darkened as she grinned a toothy grin.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OfmlzcCMp
She was my childhood coin. One side an angel. The other, the demon she never escaped.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdzmxLyAAw
"I know." She cackled.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCFre61Cdi
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.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVl8iFCIjd
"May you miss me into the twilight of your life." She hissed.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkk2R3F7lG
I woke up. Soaked in sweat.
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxfh4KqufE
"So be it."
48Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyfzGCJjrL
