Bound Shadows

"Ugh, fuck, it's morning," I grumble as I get up from bed and walk downstairs only to find Nova there. I simply sigh and say, "The fuck do you want?"

"Look Neiro, I want to talk to the old you not the new you," Nova pleads.

'She just doesn't get it does she?' I think to myself. "Nova, I told you, there is no new me there's only me and who I had wanted to be," I explain.

"T-then let me get to know you and not who you were," Nova begs.

"Nova I don't want to go down this road with you again," I tell her.

"B-but Neiro, if we do this we can save what we have and start over, it's not too late," She reasons.

"No Nova, it was too late from the moment you walked in," I say darkly. I push past her, sit on the couch, and pull out headphones so I can listen to music. Nova goes to her room and slams the door shut.

Vinyl walks downstairs, having just woken up, "Mornin' Neiro."

"Ugh, good morning Vinyl," I reply.

Vinyl blows some of her hair out of her face, "Well someone's grumpy."

I simply roll my eyes and turn on the TV.
