fragmented - chapter 1

You know that moment when you realize that your parents won’t live forever? It can be earth-shattering to a child of seven, a child of eleven and even now, a child of twenty-four. I noticed it first in my father; on a Wednesday morning at 4 AM fifteen years ago. That’s when we got the call. I woke from a pleasant dream of our upcoming trip to Houghton Lake; the lakeside and my mother’s famous sandwiches, to gasping, crying, and I rubbed my eyes to shake the sleep from them. I opened my door to find my father, collapsed against the wall, the phone hanging from a limp hand while the disembodied voice rang through with a hello,

fragmented - chapter 4            The second reason I would never tell the story was because of my father. Because the memory was painful for the both of us. Because he reminded me too much of Moshup, and he knew it. The day when he smashed the porcupine box, I lost it. I started screaming at him, emptying my grief in a whirlwind of fists and tears. I kept screaming, and screaming, even when I knew the neighbors would probably run over or call the police. I just kept screaming, How could you do that, Dad! You’ve got to stop! Stop it! Just stop it pl- but my words were choked off by my tear fragmented - chapter 4

fragmented - chapter 3There is one story Nashota told that I always remember. I told Charlie that I want it told at my funeral. He laughed and told me I was crazy. I kissed him for it. “Well, what was the story?” he would ask impatiently, giving me a glimpse of his pearly teeth in a half-smile. I told him that someday I would tell him. He wasn’t satisfied, so I made a new promise. “If we ever have kids,” I said to him one night, “I’ll tell the story Charlie. Okay?” He would smile again, chuckle lightly, and give me a whatever you say, sweetheart. There were two reasons I never told the story. One was that the memory fragmented - chapter 3

Finals week. It's killing me. Slowly. I've started a little project of mine called "fragmented". Yes, the lower-case first letter is completely intentional. I think perhaps it's a way to help me deal with the adjustment...(I'm graduating high school) and not only that, I've been wanting to write something like this for a long time, thanks to Anjou's "Aqquinah" which seriously inspired me and changed the scope of my life

Even if you're not an X-Files fan (you're crazy ;p) you can appreciate the beauty of her work. I hope to someday be able to write something that incredible. But I think...out of all the things I've stopped and started, maybe this will be the project I stick with. Who knows.

Bear with me folks. I'll be back to my old self by Saturday.

Yes, must go see. :nod:

Hopefully it's more like the earlier seasons... But in any case, it's at least a nostalgy trip - to see Mulder and Scully again in a new adventure! :boogie:
