[You need to know, need need need to know!]
"Just tell me straight forward! stop being cryptic! Just tell me!!"
[The pharmacist stared at you with an inhumane glare. Her existence made you sick. You couldn't take any more of this. You stomped up to her, grabbing her by the collar]
"FOR FUCK'S SAKE! TELL ME!"
[you felt overwhelmed by your own anger. Why did you feel so strongly? Such strong feelings leave you weak and vulnerable, and you hated it]
hm..interesting..
"What! What's interesting!?"
Nothing it's just...you've lived all this time in an ignorant bliss, and now you want to know everything? What will you do when you know the truth, hm? Will you be distraught, unphased...happy?
[you shook your head, you can't let her get to you, no no no no no, shut up!]
"augh! Just- fuckin' tell me! I-I'm sick of your repetitive games and questions-"
[your head started to ache again. you let the pharmacist out of your grasps and latched your hands onto your head.
"Gah-!! For fucks sake-"
-Well if anything, you're the one being repetitive. Coming in here every day for the same exact things. And now, when you're off your vitamins, you're consistently repeating yourself! "Tell me this"..."tell me that.."
God, do you ever shut up!
..
[after yours and the pharmacist's moment of synchronization, the room became silent and eerie. You took a second.]
..
Perhaps you are experiencing withdrawal?
"Not possible."
It is perfectly plausible, no?
"..."
[Breathe, in and out. You took another moment to think over her words, backtracking to your fuzzy memories in your fit of rage]
"what do you mean, living in ignorance..?"
Well of course you wouldn't know. If one were to live in ignorance, you'd never really know, right? Because you are too busy forgetting things to realize what you've forgotten! It's the entire purpose, to forget.
"..can you tell me, why would I want to forget?"
..Well, everyone wants to forget. They want to forget their past, their present and all their other memories. Sometimes, they may want to forget themselves as a whole!
[this moment of calm between you and the pharmacist didn't feel right.]
[nothing felt right]
[You haven't been feeling right]
"have you ever wanted to forget?"
..That's a good question. I have nothing to forget.
"You seem to know a lot about me."
Hah, yes I do. Yet you know nothing of yourself. Quite sad, if you ask me?..
[what]
"Huh? No I know plenty about myse-"
What's your name?
"Easy! It's-"
[what]
[whatwhatwhatwhatwhatwhatwhatwhatwhatwhatwhat]
[She's smiling. Why is she smiling!?]
Go on, spill ♡
[You found your mouth empty. You switched the topic]
"you still haven't told me what you did to her! You-"
Don't avoid my questions. You know exactly what happened.
"No I don't just say it! Say it say it say it!!"
Hm. Okay. She's dead.
[Huh]
What else were you expecting? She's dead. Gone. Hell, wouldn't be surprised if she was never there! Maybe she died yesterday, or today in the morning, or maybe she died 2 years ago. No matter what, she is gone.
[That- no- nonono- you heard her voice you did you did she was there shes not shes shes shes- "I am airi momoi" no shes not she is because then she would be de-]
[oh.]
[ohhhhh oh hahaha okay I you see what this is]
[some sort of liminal....lucid dream! You started to laugh]
"Hah! hahah..haaa..I'll just head home no-"
What home? You have no home. You haven't in 2 years.
[It's just a dream, don't think about it- any minute you'll wake up! you will!]
I told you what you asked for. Why are you so weird, hm? In denial, or have you forgotten?
[I wish to forget]
[no I YOU don't!]
. . .
[You are tired]
[what if this wasn't a dream? what if she's dead? What if-]
"I couldn't- help-"
Oh don't even start...
