It was a red moon, the same colour as Shazmia’s certain features…Froewa could not stop getting the image of Shazmia out of her hair…
She couldn’t sleep, she couldn’t think, she didn’t know what to do…So she decided to do something she had never done before, she had to go visit Exclaimer
Exclaimer was sleeping soundly when he heard a knock at the door, he got up and opened to the door…
“Froewa!? What are you doing here?” he asked in a sleepy state
“I…I couldn’t sleep, I was wondering if I could come sleep with you for the night?”
“You want to….WHAT!?” Exclaimer said confused
“I know…It’s stupid…But I can’t seem to get Shazmia out of my head…It’s like she’s haunting me from the astral world…”
There was a moment of silence before Exclaimer broke down laughing…Until Froewa kicked him in the knees, he fell on his knees, trying not to let the pain get to him
“Grow up you idiot!”
“Heard that before sweetie”
Froewa walked into the house as Exclaimer tried to stand up but to no avail…Meanwhile Froewa was standing by the mirror, she was looking at a photo. There was a young Exclaimer sitting next to an older man she believed was her father…
“I see you’re interested in that photo…”
She turned around to see Exclaimer holding one of his knees where she kicked him, she then took another look at the photo and picked it up
“Who’s the man?”
There was a brief silence then Exclaimer spoke in a sad tone “That…That was my dad…” Froewa’s speculation came true, the man in the photo was indeed Exclaimer’s dad
“What happened to him? If I don’t mind asking…” those were the only words that came out of Froewa’s mouth. Exclaimer was struggling to find the words he so desperately wanted to say but he couldn’t…Instead he walked away from Froewa and simply walked to his bedroom…
“Exclaimer wait!” she begged but Exclaimer didn’t respond back…He just walked straight to his bedroom and slammed his body on the mattress filled with bugs…
“Exclaimer please…” Froewa begged but Exclaimer didn’t say anything. Instead he burst into tears, the thing that he didn’t want to do…
Froewa crept into bed with him and hugged him…
Then she fell asleep…
