    TW:// Mention of suicidal thoughtsI hate the sun. I hate the heat. I hate the dryness. I hate...everything here. I pull a book from the shelf and walk towards my chair. The spindly wooded chair is accompanied by a cockroach. Another thing to dislike about here. Brushing it off I sitwww.onedoor.cc down, reclused in the shade. The book I'm holding is not one I'm familiar with. It's dark, sleek, and contains the outline of an "x" on the front. Opening it, a letter falls out."Some things aren't worth giving up." -Exodus"Promises and wishes are best kept as they are." -CarilynMy ancestors tell stories of a god-l...5esone door
