"Ah-tch!"
A reddish droplet from the fresh wound makes a splash sound as it falls into the bowl.
Wasting no time, the girl holds the bowl still and starts stirring the thick, goopy contents with a spatula-like object.
"Soon this will be inside of you… guhehe."
I can feel in my body that something has changed.
Something is different about the world.
As I breathe, as I inhale and exhale, I sense that the air is lighter and easily flows in and out.
Even the dust lingering in my room seems cleaner.
When I open the door I'm taken back by a blinding bright light that hits me in the face and enters the room.
I rub my eyes and they readjust themselves to the morning shine, and my focus turns to something that catches my attention.
It lies in front of my door, so I take it to take a closer look.
A Valentine's chocolate!
Could it be, some girl worked up her courage to make this for me?
There's a letter attached to it, so I hastily open it.
Just stop forcing this already.
