And the moon watched us

-Why? WHY? WHY?

          Nicolas wondered, had he simply lost all his hope? if he ever had any.

He looked at his reflection in the lake, which no longer looked like himself, he didn't even form a human figure, Nicolas was on the brink of insanity, not just on the brink but at the definitive encounter with the loss of his own lucidity.

      He felt more and more out of his depth, he barely remembered what his name was, what his being was like, what he was like, what his true reflection was like, his true "self".

Tears began to roll down his face, and soon they came into contact with the lake, forming small waves and deformation, he didn't feel normal, he felt like an aberration, nothing more than a mistake.

He was so crazy that his own 'reflection' communicated with him:

-Crazy? My child... You are not crazy. --He said, with his voice, a little deformed in a tone of welcome and sadness, more and more the image of the lake deformed and became different from its appearance--

-Yes.. I'm crazy! -- The boy spoke between sobs and tears -- I don't even recognize myself anymore!

-My child, You were made in my image and my being, you are me, and me? I am you. I'm not crazy, so neither are you.

-I! I! I'M NOT YOU! --The boy wasn't sure of anything, not even his own existence, but something inside him screamed that he would never be the image he reflected--

-not? --That was no longer a mere image reflected in a lake, it was already an apparition-- PROVE... -- The image came out of the lake, as if coming out of another dimension, starting to pull the boy into the lake--

-I DONT WANT!  I -I CANT! I-I... --The boy was interrupted, slowly entering the lake, he couldn't breathe, but he felt light, but not safe--

-- SHIIIS! Hush my child... It's not like you have any options, right? -- In a hug, the image grabbed the boy and made him enter the lake, now, nothing would make the boy feel sad, but also, never happier, just nothing more.--
