My mother's words replayed in my ears. Maybe it was time to be better and start again with Scorpius. To rebuild myself along with our relationship. If we become better, then I would too. I needed my memories. Spending time with the one person I could actually remember was the only way. But then I thought of the outside, the unlimited space that went on and on. It was endless and free, one step out, and it would suck out everything I had. It would swallow my entirety as one. I was not ready.
