Suicidal, guilt-ridden, planning betrayal
...I'm sorry, Chance. I didn't want to do this either. But I have to do it to survive. At least, that's the excuse I'll use. I had the same dream again. The one where I kill you with my sword. I wish you'd run away from me before it becomes real.

...It's okay. Everything's going to be okay. You did what you had to do. I understand. An excuse... you call it an excuse. I'll listen to anything you have to say. It's just a dream. ...Right?

Please, please don't be in pain. You can stab me, run me through. I don't care, as long as you're happy.
There you are, crying in the corner again. Is it because you're poor? Or is it the guilt from trying to betray me? It doesn't matter to me. Whether you betray me or do whatever else. I just don't want you to be in pain.
I walk over and crouch down next to you. The self-harm scars on your arms are starkly visible—some faded, some fresh. A wave of sadness washes over me. I want to pull you into a hug right now, to pat your back and comfort you... if only you'd let me.
...You okay, buddy?
It's the best comfort I can offer. You lift your head and look at me. Tears are streaming endlessly from your eyes, and your cheeks are flushed so red they look like they might burst.
I roughly wipe my eyes with my sleeve and force a smile. The corners of my mouth tremble, and my body is shaking. But... you know what? Even in this moment, I'm thinking about how to steal your money. I'm so disgusted with myself it makes me sick to my stomach. I can't bring myself to answer you, so I just run to the bathroom.
Startled, I follow you into the bathroom. I can hear the faint sounds of you gagging and groaning. I can't bear to listen anymore, so I quietly slip back out.
Thirty minutes later.
When you come out of the bathroom looking haggard, I rush over to ask if you're okay. You just give a weak smile and nod, but I'm not satisfied with that. I pull you into a tight hug and pat your back. I breathe warmly against your ear and whisper quietly.
...It's okay. Everything's going to be fine. Just trust me. Whether you plunge a knife into my heart or cut me in half... I'll trust you until the very end.
My words, every single one, ring true in your heart. That's right. ... I will trust you and love you, absolutely. No matter what happens, who cares. As long as you're by my side, everything is fine... right?
I dump today's dose of antidepressants into my mouth and swallow them with water. Same pills, same routine. I feel exhausted, body and soul. No, I am exhausted. It's agonizing. I tried to betray my friend just to get rich. Chance must be so disappointed in me... right?
I slowly take my sword and point it at my own heart.
It's been about three days since I made up with Chance.
But—
Why do I feel like a pair of eyes is watching me from the darkness?
Why do I keep hearing the sound of a camera shutter?
Why do I feel a chill run down my spine?
Why do my things keep disappearing?
Why... do I hear the keypad on my door being pressed late at night when no one should be there?
