II – Hesitation
I wake up, and I cry, for what feels like an eternity, everything collapses on me, I have nothing, I know nothing, I love no one nor am I loved, I have no life, all I have is an existence, I feel pointless. I suddenly look up and see Bruce staring right at me; his face was being one of understanding, like as if he knows what I’m going through.
“It happens, kid, and yes you’re right, everything is pointless, we are just the entertainment.” he said, with a tone of resignation. “If this is so pointless, why do we do it? Can’t this ever change?” I asked. His face changed to a confused one, “It’s been like this for eternity, I don’t know how this could change.” For the first time since I woke up I look around the room, it was now completely made of glass, and outside there was grass, a lovely hill, but it was raining, I didn’t know what it meant.
“That means, that you know the truth, you have come to the realisation, yet the truth is full of sorrow and despair.”, as though he knows what I'm thinking. Suddenly a man appears on the hills, he resembles Bruce, then, next to the Bruce on the hills there suddenly appears a city, hill is gone, besides the part the man is sitting on. In the city, the people are moving very quickly. Suddenly the room changes to one of a workshop again.
“I never fit in, Blaz, I always thought society was a bad thing, something that one would do best to not make part of, I looked beyond society, for a while I even thought myself superior, but then I understood, that with my wisdom, came great sorrow, I couldn’t bear, seeing society corrupt everything in front of my eyes, while I was angry at it, I envied people who made part of society, I envied their ignorance” he says this with great sorrow. “It’s time Blaz, just open the door.” I open it.
