My sleeping self recalls memories similar to those of a radio. I begin to walk in that distant time. The monochrome sky extends beyond the edge of the world and he and I are before me. It was always with him that I was. No matter what happened, we were together. He told me what he said that time: “Why are we in such a horrible world? If I look at it, it's empty. I don't want to exist in a world like this. So I'm going to change it." I had always ignored it, but you felt the rain, the rain of difficulties, and you didn't accept it. Our town where we grew up was incredibly poor. Obviously it was difficult. A daily struggle. But then there were you parents. During a revolt they were killed. You haven't talked so much since then; like you blamed yourself. However, that's where our dream began: our dream of changing the world. My sleep begins to crumble and you and everything begin to fade away. I am left alone in my thoughts as I look at the landscape outside. The barren moon clings to the sky filled with so much emptiness I could drown. We have come so far since that time. Maybe now we can start to change things. Silently, I walk over to where you and the other council members stand. “Do you really think you have any chance of becoming leader of the country? You're just a poor boy from a poor town. The old men laughed. How dare they say something like that? As I was about to say something, I was held back by you. Nothing seemed to have any effect anymore, you had the same emotionless expression and cold eyes. You carry a deep darkness in your heart. However, I am sure that you can win this election even if no one else believes in it. It's election results day. The hands of the clock push us forward. The moment is approaching. I feel like... middle of paper... look slightly distressed. “It's sad, but in this case I won't let you get in my way” He has a knife in his hand. Is he trying to kill me? We've been through so much together. Surely he couldn't do it. But for years he hasn't worried about anything, not even me. The only thing that mattered to him was his desire for revenge. I know he's ready to kill me for this. I need to escape. It's been a while since then. I shed my tears every day. I'm alone. It's all my fault. You attacked me that day. Surprised, I pushed you away. Chaos was spreading around us. But... You slipped backwards and fell. The desperation I felt was unlike anything I had ever felt before. I killed you, it's my fault. As you pushed yourself towards the ground my cry echoed. He has never been the same since. Now my only dream is to wait, so I can join you – on the other side of the sky.
