Chapter 0:
To Be Morning Stars
Ah ... I died.
I wonder if my other half survived the train crash? My head hurts. I feel like my body's turning cold. Something's trickling down my forehead. Is it blood? I want to touch and check my forehead but I don't have enough strength to open my eyes, let alone feel my forehead for injuries. I feel like there are endless small cold needles prickling me. It hurts.
It was quite a boring life but it was one that I never am going to forget. The ding-dong-ditches we did, the random pranks, pinning the blame on the other, falling asleep with our mouths hurting because of how much we laughed, the horrible stench after we played in the mud. Ah, it seems I was quite fond of my life huh? I never realised I would miss such simple things.
If I could live again, I hope my annoying twin would be my sibling again. It doesn't matter if elder or younger to me. I just want to enjoy making small yet memorable memories with ••••••• again. I wonder what's going to- ... Wait, hold on a second, what was my twin's name again? It's right there at the back of my head but I can't seem to recall. Ugh. I hate that feeling when I fail to recollect something that I one hundred percent know ! Especially something so important.
Talking about feelings, it doesn't hurt any longer nor am I cold. Instead it feels like I'm laying on ... a water mattress? Is this what the afterlife feels like? I want to take a nap, just a small one. It's so warm and cosy here.
I wonder what's going to happen to me ? Am I going to be stuck in this place forever? This place where I can't open my eyes? Where I can't feel anything around me?
Crack
Oh something just cracked ... Wait what? What's cracking? I think it's near my face.
Crack
Oh, I think this time it cracked somewhere near my left leg. How am I even able to tell without feeling or hearing it?
Crack
Yikes, it's cold ! Where's this sudden chilly wind hitting my back coming from?!
Crack
It's even chillier now! Where is it even coming from? It's making me so annoyed.
Crack
That's it. I'm going to shout. It doesn't matter since nobody's going to hear me right?
Who on earth am I even talking to?
Crack
“Chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp?! (Who's breaking something here?! I'm trying to get my final main character moment and relish my memories! Can't I get some peace after death?! And why is a baby bird chirping at the same time as me?!)”
Huh ... That almost felt like I actually spoke.
“Chirp chirp chiiiirp?! (Hold on did I really just speeeeak?!)”
