The promise

Dear #####

Hi, long time no see, no hear, no anything, uh. But as you know we couldn't see each other for many reasons and I promised that one day I wouldn't leave you, and that I'd be freed from the chains that kept me as a prisoner for so many years. 

The last week, I was at the lake, the one in which we used to spend our time together, and in which we had our sweetest moment. An angel or a demon, I don't know what it was but an enormous creature appeared in front of me.

It was ahead of me, I saw it but I don't know how to describe it. It was like it appeared in my thoughts rather than in front of my own eyes. I'd doubt that it even happen if I didn't feel it as something so lucid.

The creature felt at least twice as tall as me, and I say a creature because it talked to me but honestly it could have been anything, or rather, I'd say that it wasn't human. That thing brought me a message.

But even if it was expressing his own thoughts to me, his message felt like a realization, it felt like it was one of the automatic message sent by a site when you enter it, like when it asks you for the cookies.

I'd also say that it was even colder than that. I can't tell you the word that this 'thing' told to me, because it actually talked to my mind, it made me feel the concept but he didn't use words to say it.

That thing felt so real but also so surreal that if I squinted, or if I tried to think about something else it started to disappear from mind and sight. But I know what he wants, even if I couldn't grasp everything that he wanted from me.

He asked me for a number, I don't know anything about this, I'm starting from literally zero, but I feel like I have to do it, not because of that thing but because I want to know more about his presence.

I also want the power that he has, I feel, I feel like he promised me that, an enormous power that would be able to turn everything apart, but also the power to turn the nothingness into something. 

I won't be able to hear from you for a while, so I won't blame you if you won't be there when I come back, of if you'll decide to forget everything that has happened, but If you wait for me, I'll come back and you won't be able to get rid of me easily.

If you think that I'm worth of your time come and look for me, I'm not asking you to do nothing, but I also know that I have things that I have to do, and I can't make you understand because I don't have his powers.

See you soon, like very soon, like as soon as possible.

##### read the letter, and started crying in pain "You... and that thing, you are out of your mind, you didn't even mind to write a single letter about me. Why are you... doing this?".

##### falls on the ground and rips apart the letter, then ##### repented and tried to put back the parts of the letter together, and ##### smelled the paper that had still Ray's smell. It was night, and so ##### went back in, and after the light of a lamp ##### noticed the ink that had a red color, that tasted as iron.

It was ink made out of Ray's blood and it made ##### cry even more. 

A couple of years later...
