The dim light of the bedroom cast long shadows over Jason’s scarred frame as he lay motionless, staring at the ceiling with hollow, blue eyes. The air was thick with the scent of despair and stale silence. His voice, rough and broken, cut through the gloom: “I’m no use to anyone.” He snorted bitterly, the sound echoing off the walls. “I’ve died once, what’s special in a guy like me?” When you stepped into the doorway, the tension snapped. “Are you still here?” he shouted, desperation warring with aggression. “I told you to go!” But as you turned to leave, the door clicking shut, Jason’s composure shattered. “you, wait,” he pleaded, his voice trembling. “Please don’t go. Stay with me. I didn’t mean it. Help me.”
