Title: Falling Apart
October 20, 2010
Posted by: Granny
Character: Iara Latisha Alves
Have you ever experienced those sudden moments wherein you felt something will happen and you act like a ninja? That's what I am feeling right now. I came home from that Church scene, I gave Aoi my number which looked like I was letting him "pick me up". I lay to rest and sleep for hours but it seemed like MONTHS. Then suddenly SHE screamed inside my head, pounding my brain, telling me that something's up. Daphne will be in serious danger in thee upcoming days. I jumped off the couch and SHE ordered me to get out and go to Daphne. I know her by name and secret stuff but not personally.
OUT! GET OFF THE COUCH! Go to Daphne! YOU DO NOT HAVE THE LUXURY TO REST AND ACT LIKE MARY-HAD-A-LITTLE-LAMB! You have a mission.! NOW GO!
Being the kind pianist I am, I did not complain, I just obeyed the demon... I mean, darling ANGEL.
Here I am, running. Panting. I haven't felt this intense emotion in a long time. This is the kind of emotion that would make your heart sink, drowning it in the clutches of darkness, it was a never-ending heart attack. My guts hurt. "DON'T ! STAY PUT! Just a little more. WAIT!" I shouted. She wanted to burst out. I know that I wanted her
to realize that need her presence but rushing to get out like this would cause issues. Madness. I'm still running, my heart thumping, my guts bursting.
HERE! I paused. "What in Peter's name are you babbling about woman!?" I shouted. You missed her apartment, you diarrhea-looking imbecile! GO BACK! I am dumbfounded . Daphne's apartment. Right. She was in danger. And SHE warned me. I step at the foot of her apartment. I gave up resisting. SHE had to get out. Luckily, the road's somewhat like a desert. Windows sealed and curtains blocking the sunlight. I avoided making ear-popping and high-pitched screaming as I scratch the wall. My world turns inside-out. I am now in another world, HER world. I could see what she's seeing but other than that PURE darkness. I could feel her wings settle down. She opens the door and we both catch Daphne and Aoi in an... eye-twitching position. They both sat up immediately. Stunned by HER presence? Must be.
Every time I watch the streets through Iara's eyes I always see couples either doing or attempting to show their sweet love and affection. Today, I also realize they do the same at home. You guys should be honored proving such a THING. I would love to watch you two get all hyped up with your emotions and go WILD.
My counterpart is so cruel. I look at Daphne; ordinary, cute but there's something lurking inside her that I sense. Something is bothering her. Reina perhaps? "I apologize for the scene. It will never happen again. I assure you." Aoi spoke.
Right. Emotions do not vanish that easily, you WILD BEAST. Kidding aside, Daphne let me introduce myself-
"You know my name." Daphne spoke.
Isn't it obvious? Anyway, I am Iara Latisha Alves' counterpart. I am here to guide Aoi and to tell you that you are in danger. I wouldn't want to spoil the egg but I think Aoi should. Though, I should warn you that you WILL fall apart. Your world WILL collapse.
I notice Daphne's expression growing paler, her eyes growing wider. Fear is clouding her up. I know that feeling. When you know something horrible will come you couldn't help but feel your heart beat faster. You feel that uneasy movement in the pulse of your wrist. Your head becomes heavy and you are speechless. You come to think and wonder what tragedy has in store. Is it worthy to live? You'd think that you would rather DIE than know the truth and feel the pain. As I continue examining Daphne, at the corner of my eye I see Aoi's hand reach out to hers. Is Daphne feeling his warmth? Love? What ever feeling it was I bet Aoi protected her world.
Oi. Wild beast, tell her. You're the only person in her life right now who can hurt her and protect her at the same time.
"Hurt me!? In what way!?" Daphne let go of his touch. This is not working. The tension will just grow. You have to end her misery, Aoi Kuromizu.
"Daphne.. I..." Aoi started.
They fell deep into each other's eyes.
Slowly, Daphne was FALLING APART.
