Remember Me

Chapter 12 ('Till we meet again)

The room sat in silence encased in pitch black darkness. A small red light brightened as a soft click sounded. The whirring of a tape cassette filled the room.

"Hey, Asuka. Well, I know how much you're hurting. And I hope you understand why I chose to do this. Know that I did this because I couldn't face the hurt that I know you would feel. Every day I think about you and I want nothing more but happiness for you. Until I'm gone, I want you to live your life and find someone who can give you what I couldn't. Please, Asuka, always know I love you, forever and always,"

The tape stopped, rewound and played again.

The tape stopped again, rewound and played but this time the sound became fragmented.

"Hey, Asuka,"

"Well,"

"And,"

"Know,"

"Every,"

"Until,"

"Please,"

A sinister laugh slithered into the darkness.

"Well….W. And… A. Know…K. Every…E. Until… U. Please… P."

The room flashed white which was accompanied by a loud bang. The room filled with the smell of gunpowder and smoke. In the dim light, a piece of paper sat within a motionless hand. Blood now stained the edges with the words WAKE UP scrawled hastily across its face.

The End.
