My world is ablaze, and I?m fixated on the girl who ignited it. Bloodied knuckles and a lifeless body at my feet unveil the truth: Penny is my downfall. My polished exterior has crumbled; my sins bleed through like ink. I tried to walk away from her but found I couldn’t. I attempted to extinguish her light, yet that too was impossible. Instead, we?ll dance in the flames, spiraling toward oblivion where I?ll rise only when she’s gone. But letting her go is not an option; she?ll have to flee from me. Perhaps if I confess my darkest secret?that I control the Sinners Anonymous Hotline and have heard every confession she?s ever made?she?ll finally understand how deeply entangled we truly are.
