I don't pay attention to the
world ending
it has ended for me
many times
and began again in the morning.

~ATLAS~
It's breaking. My world. Not even here and she is still able to break him. And by breaking him. She managed to shatter me. "Atlas," Nov-nov's soothing voice enters my ears as I look up. Her blue eyes that match my own stare into me. I know why she is calling my name. I stand. It's time. Before I leave the house though, she hugs me. "Be brave my Atlas."
I want to stay there forever in her arms. I want to keep within the folds of it. Taking in her scent. Her warmth. I push away though. It's time. Without another glance, I walk out the house. Walk into the waiting eyes. They have come for this. Gathered around to witness this moment. It's time. And then I see father.
