"I don't know" I respond without getting up.
My response comes in mind and mouth so he knows I am not lying.
Yet the voice from my mind makes him raise both eyebrows in shock.
"What have you done"?
"Why can't I hear them"!?
He asks even louder than before.
"I agreed to its sacrifice, it just doesn't want me" I look him directly in the eye from my seated position.
I don't know what he means by 'not hearing' them.
The voices feel like they are permanently in pain as they all scream in waves.
"How did this happen"? He asks while lowering himself and serving me a panicked death glare.
"I don't know".
I answer while my head visibly pulsing like a stress ball.
He continues to stare at me like he expects something from me.
"It still hasn't given me the 'truth'" I tell him and point at the dying bush.
He looks exceedingly more confused by the moment.
"What do you mean"?
