บท 265: Breakdown (2in1)

My entire body froze up in place when I saw Mia sitting with Jenne and sipping on a tea. 

This sight was so unbelievable, so unlikely to occur, that my mind simply couldn't process it in any timely manner. 

And then, something changed. 

It felt what I called myself suddenly split into two. 

I could still control half of me... But the other half followed nothing but instincts alone. 

What was the worst part, though, was that it was the other part of myself that took control over my body. 

And so I stood in place, unable to move an inch with my brain overwhelmed by a shock. 

But then came the worst. 

The shock that this single image caused reverberated through my entire self, only to end up shattering the dam that I put over my past trauma. 

And all at once, the humiliation, the pain, the insecurity that I kept stowed away for all this time, they smashed right into my consciousness.
