The worst thing about being dead was not being able to do anything.
At her death, at seeing how Sunny and Basil had hung her. She was furious, she wanted to scream at her brother for pushing her down the stairs, at Basil for coming up with the idea to hang her, at her parents for not being there, at herself for not seeing that she was pushing Sunny too far.
Now she just felt gutted.
Because it didn’t matter; nothing she did or tried affected reality.
Attending her own funeral has miserable. Seeing her parents holding themselves together, her brother catatonic, Basil on the verge of panic, her remaining friends crying. Her own body prettied up for a final goodbye before it would rot in the dirt.
Nothing she did or tried affected reality.
Things didn’t get better as the years went on.
Kel always left lonely. Hero giving in to his parents. Aubrey taking her anger out on those around her. Basil was a ball of exposed nerves. Sunny stopped coming out of their house. Her parents didn’t cope better; both knew the truth and hated knowing it. Dad left after disowning the family and mom worked herself to the bone in the hope of distraction.
Nothing she did or tried affected reality.
She tried to reach out, to touch them, speak to them, be a comforting shoulder. Oh how badly she wanted to tell them she hadn’t left them. She was there with them, stuck with them. That she was with them in Faraway till god knows when.
Nothing she did or tried affected reality.
She was alone. She was with her friends, with her neighbors and everyone else in Faraway. But none could see, hear or touch her. None could her screams begging god to change her existence. To make her visible, hearable, have any effect on reality once more.
Nothing she did or tried affected reality.
