The trembling of my hands was the only thing keeping me tethered with reality, as I tried to tear the letter open. My mind felt like a tornado, I… I… Real?… Fake?…. Truth?… Lie?…… dream…. Death?

When I finally got a slit in the envelope, I saw the thing I had been waiting for my whole life. The paper had a small wet spot. Only then I realized tears were streaming down my face. Somehow, I was crying………excitement…… fear… pain…… sorrow?

M…moo…mom a long time ago said something about this letter. Warning maybe? Story, doesn’t matter but it was about something bad that happened once, but that doesn’t matter now. It’s here and it’s time.

I don’t know why, but the thought is gone as quickly as it came. Almost like my subconscious pulling it back in, hiding the truth. I can’t think of it though, so I look ate the paper and read.
