It’s dark. My dreams are clear in the darkness. I dream that I don’t love Michael.
His love is not the light that it used to be.
It’s dark. I hear him move closer. He takes the hood from my face. He carries me to
the window. I open my eyes. I only see shadows. Tears come to my eyes. I cry. I don’t
love Michael. It’s still dark for me. I close my eyes.
It’s dark. The darkness is filled with mechanical sounds. Fearsome machine sounds.
I can almost see them. Loud. Filling my head. Whirr, click, swoosh. My eyes stay closed.
It's dark. I hear voices. Michael talking to .. Adrian?? I open my eyes. I see colours.
Black and red. Black material and red lights. I close my eyes.
It’s dark. I am lying on the floor waiting for Michael. When he comes over, I’ll grab his gun
somehow and do something. Anything. I wait.
It seems dark. I see Michael as a shadow. He has tied himself up. Properly, otherwise
I would know it. He says something nice, as always. I hit him. Don’t want to hurt him too
much.
It’s daylight but everything is shadowy. I have somehow found a telephone. Call the Section.
I need to tell them where I am. Michael rides up beside me on a motorcycle. I recognise his
face. I realise that I wanted him to find me. I love him. I love Michael. And then everything
seems brighter. Why?? I… Love… Michael. What have they done to me??
It’s dark. I have been dreaming of more darkness. I open my eyes. I see colours.
Black and red. I look over and see Michael. My dreams were not that clear. It’s not his love
that brightens my life. It is my love for him. I signal him to come to me. We kiss. Brighter and
brighter my life becomes. Oh, please, Michael. Don’t let me lose my love for you. Or I’ll go
over the edge again. I close my arms around him. I close my eyes.
