-playlist of this chapter: Suffer by Charlie Puth
...
Previously, after the accident and while at school Tom did not show any signs of acute trauma. It was just a pain that Tom endured and kept to himself.
Tom tried to be heartened not to worry his mother any more than he should. But in the end, Tom gave up trying to fight the feeling alone. He knew that he was not a child as strong as Petra or anyone else in Mestonia. Tom is just Tom the mother's son.
Until it finally reached its peak last night. Tom couldn't even close his eyes to blink. The flash of Rona's grin that wasn't Rona kept on haunting every time.
What's worse, Rona with a strange voice whispers strange words that make no sense and invites her to come with her. At first, it was just a whisper that was easy to ignore. Over time the voice turned into a shrill shriek that hurt the ears of anyone who heard.
