Chapter 43

“MARCUS, MARCUS!” I call out to him as I try to shake him, trying to snap him out of the state he is in. As I try to stop him from harming himself with the knife that is now in his hands. I roughly take it away from him and as a last resort I get cold water from the fridge. I splash his whole face with the water and moments later I notice that he is slowly coming back to his senses. He starts heaving as he looks at me and takes in what just happened right now. “Are you okay?” I ask him. He eyes are dilated and dark and he looks disoriented , like he doesn’t know what’s going on right now.

In answering my question he simply nods his head without saying a word. Helping him to the living room, I help him sit down. I quickly rush to messy kitchen to get him some water to drink. Once I come back I find that he has calmed down and is staring into the blank wall. Barely moving .
