Inbetween

'You look alone and forlon, what is your concern?"

"That's not even a proper rhyme."

"No, it's not, you dipshit, but it's the only time I'll ask this question. Either suck it up and tell me or don't - I'm fine either way."

"They found out about me being inbetween."

"What do you mean, inbetween? That doesn't make sense."

"Can you tone it down a bit? I don't want them to hear me."

"Who is them?"

"Them! You know who I mean, isn't it obvious? They know I'm inbetween two worlds, okay? That I'm barely existing, like a half human, like a gh-"

"Sh-! Are you insane talking about this? Here of all places?"

"Well, you wouldn't take a goddamn hint, how was I supposed to tell you?! Oh no, I think someone saw me whispering-"

"Which one? I told you it's stupid to manifest right here, you can't switch places if they know-"

"It's too late, I'm feeling the pull-"

"No! How will I reach you the next time I'll need you?"

"Don't know... can't remember already. Did we know each other? I'm feeling heavy..."

"Yes, we did! Give me something I can use to contact you. A feather, a stone, a goddamn signpost, just something like you always did!"

"No, I'm too shapeless by now, see? T'was nice knowing you. Goodbye..."

"No! Are you there? I can't see you, did they come for you? Did you go to the other half? Can you hear me??"
