Four Aliens and a Baby |
Colors.
Fire.
Pain.
My lungs ache. My heart races.
I can't breathe!
Darkness.
Something's wrong, something's changed.
I wake up in a start and gaze around the darkened room. I try to catch
my breath as a knot forms in my stomach.
You're gone.
My eyes adjust to the dim light and my sight confirms my feelings.
You're missing and I notice that Liz is gone as well. You're gone,
you have-
You're gone.
"No." I mutter under my breath- I still have things I need
to say. I still have things I need to know.
I want you to explain, I want to know the truth.
Damn it, Tess. I love you.
Why did you have to do this? Why did you have to leave me again?
I stand up and pace the room. No one senses anything- no one feels
the loss. They're still sleeping, oblivious to what has happened.
You went to Liz for help.
Liz?
Why didn't you come to me? You did earlier- you must have known that
I wouldn't have let you kill yourself. Deep down you must have known
what I truly feel-
My words were harsh and I meant them. It needed to be said, it needed
to be-
It doesn't matter now.
You're gone.
I feel slightly dizzy as the pain increases and then fades away.
Why?
I hear a soft cry coming from the guest bedroom, breaking my train
of thought. A soft innocent cry-
Zan.
He knows, he feels it too.
You did it for him, for your son. You did it for the selfish trio,
you did it for us. There could have been another way-
I find myself in his room and I gaze at him- Zan. His face is scrunched
up and red from crying.
His little hands reach out.
He aches for his mother, he aches for the comfort he will never know.
He's human. He's lucky.
I hold him to my body as his tears cease. He's calmed by my touch.
As you were.
