Interlude: That Voice Inside my Head

Interlude: That Voice Inside my Head

Oh, hello! Nice to meet you.

What's your name?

...

Great! What's my name?

Do you get lonely sometimes? I do too! When I'm left all alone, and no one wants to spend time with me, I get really sad.

Do you get sad?

...

That's great!

I learnt a new trick recently. Wanna know what it is? Keep it a secret.

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

I can talk to myself! I know! At first, I thought it was scary too, but after a while, I didn't get scared anymore.

I spend all day inside my own head, and I never get bored. There's so many doors to open, it's always so fun!

Wanna know how?

Great!

Close your eyes and imagine yourself. Here's the tricky part. Not yourself when you look in a mirror, but yourself when someone asks you 'what do you like about yourself'? or who do you want to be?'

Can you imagine yourself?

...

No?

Oh. That's sad. It must be sad to be a stranger in your own skin.

...

You want to be friends with me?

No, silly! I don't want to be friends with you.

People who don't know who they are are scary.

They lie.

They crave validation.

They do whatever people tell them to.

They don't need to be anywhere near normal people.

...

I hope you have a good day today! Have fun!
