Limbo

-Baby Doll-

I’m still here. I am out here and in here.

The me out there is still acting like everything is normal. Well, as normal as it can be at the moment. I appear not to know what’s really going on with me. The only time that something is wrong is when I zone out in the middle of what I am doing. I want to scream out to myself but I can’t hear me.

I am in here too. I can’t move. I am aware of what is going on around me. I don’t know how this is possible. I just opened my eyes and I realized that I was here. It took time for that to happen. Heh, time. Such a thing doesn’t exist in… wherever this place was.

However, I am not alone.

That other angel is here too. I forgot what his name was. I do know it’s a boy. He had been talking to me this whole time. I am just now understanding what he was saying.

“Are you still okay?”

Am I still okay?

I didn’t know how to answer that. I think so. I am still here. But I wasn’t supposed to be here. I should be out there. I would try and leave, but I can’t move. I’m not sure if I really have a body here. I know that I am in this place but I can’t feel anything. I can hear everything around me. I still have all of my senses with me. There is so much that I can see around me.

I am looking out in front of me right now.

There are so many I am looking at. It overwhelmed me when I first came back to my senses. It took me a while, but I managed to narrow it down to one thing at a time. I can see everything out there, but that’s it. I can scream at them all I want but they won’t hear me. They can’t. I would help them through this trap if I could. But he’s got me trapped here. For now, I can watch and try to reach out for help.

I looked out again. Wait… I think I have seen him before. I know him! It’s Masayuki. He’s still looking for me. However, I felt myself getting confused.

Who is that with him?

------------

A small head poked out into the open doorway. A small body followed behind. It turned out to be a little girl with light brown pigtails and a long white dress. She gave him a frown of distrust. Masayuki looked confused.

“Um…. Who is that?” he asked. The child stared at him with no expression on her face. She opened her mouth to speak.
