'What the hell is that? Was he crazy?'

Suddenly my eyes start to forcefully close as if I hadn't slept in days when everything turned to darkness

When I regain consciousness I see that great pitch black again but I don't see the eyes anywhere.

I look around trying to find whoever would help me when I almost fall out of my chair.

'Wow, I almost fell'

I stop with the sudden thought

'Can I move?'

I bring my palm above my chest and then close it just to test

I hear a voice close to my ear and by instinct I turn my elbow towards him, suddenly I stop when I recognize the face I was going to hit

'Father?'

"Oops, I see that these things still affect you, I'm sorry"

he said using my father's body as clothes

"Stop this."

Raising an eyebrow he releases his pressure and I start to feel smaller in that chair, like a child at the dinner table with his parents.

"Who said you call the shots here, you worm?"

He sat in his seat twice my size so that I purposely looked down on him

"What did you decide?"

I grit my teeth and lower my head as I feel fragile because I have to depend on someone else again to survive.

"I accept."

Looking satisfied, he lowered his throne a little further, his feet coming to my height.

"Kiss my foot, and it will be done."

My blood boils and I start to look at him with hatred

"I will never stoop to the point of"

Looking at me seriously and then changing his expression when he looked into the darkness

"it's that or nothing, decide, besides let's say you don't have much time pffft"'

I look where he is looking and see dozens of men with red eyes

"I accept, I accept!"

"Please let me out!"

seeming to have fun while I saw myself desperate seeing all these men with red eyes,

I kneel down begging to be allowed out,

He points his hand at me and throws a kind of blue clock in my direction when a growing pain begins to ache inside my entire body,

As if my bones destroyed themselves to adapt to the intrusive power

As my consciousness went back and forth due to the intense pain, I began to burst into tears as if the world was rejecting me, as if every part of my being hated the alien orb with all its might.

When after a few minutes of suffering the pain stopped,

Looking amused he looked at me and said

"FuFu Did you like the trip?"

"Well that's a cool power you have, you can see a minute into the future, but every time you use time flow control you lose a memory forever."

Studying my reaction he continued

"They say it's memories that make up the lives of inferior beings, so I'd like to see what would happen to one without any"

"I... Can I choose the memory?"

He blinked and then started laughing.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA what a stupid question of course not, and that's what makes everything better"

He moved in a blur and grabbed me by my hair as he lifted me off the ground.

"I want to see you break, I want you to see your mother and father and not recognize them anymore, to use that power on behalf of the ones you love and then never have them again"

"Because this is your destiny. You are cursed"

I see your hand move towards my face when I unconsciously close my eyes, everything went black...

Upon regaining consciousness I am back in my bed again, when I feel the same sensation of danger and looking out the window another completely different person staring at me blankly

I get up to force this person to say why they are doing this when I hear a voice that makes me shiver.

"Why do you keep moving forward? Why do you fight?"

When I look to the side I see a little girl with white hair and facial features that I recognize from somewhere and an age of around 14

'This girl... where do I know her face from?'

I blinked trying to reorganize my thoughts and she disappeared from my sight, when I looked back worried about the person in the window I saw her looking at him again

"You do not remember me?"

he asked while looking at me with contempt

"Don't you remember what you did?"

"Thanks to ******* I'm here to punish you, for the rest of your life"

"I will always influence the memories you will lose, always"

"I will always be with you to make you lose everything you love just like me"

Confused, I look into the eyes and try to understand why there is so much resentment towards someone I have never met in my life.

"Why? What did I do to you? I... I always lose everything"

Memories of the visions I had assaulting my head making me feel smaller

When I felt my willpower wavering, she approached with a sweet voice.

"You never managed to save anyone..."

I hear her footsteps, but she floats, which makes me think this is just an illusion in my head

When she comes into my reach I give everything I have to hit her in the face so she stops this suffering.

My hand goes over the inside of your face, even with your fist across it I see your smile as if I was waiting for it.

"So predictable, I'll be with you until you die, so why not make things better?"

I see through my peripheral vision the body in my window approaching the edge of the tree where my house is, and waving its hand inviting me to jump.

That girl's voice getting louder and louder in my head

"Jump!

Jump!

No one will miss you...

You are useless. Do you think I don't know?

lost your family to your dear brother who you idolize so much

HAHAHAHAHA

You disgust me, do the world a favor, for everyone who pretends to care about you and jump"

I unconsciously start walking towards the window as thousands of thoughts approach my head,

memory of my parents' house burning with their screams

As I hear that sweet voice calling me into death's embrace, so I can finally rest

"Just one more step"

Every time my brother beat me.

"You are getting it"

the screams of neighbors asking for help, their eyes as I just watched all the chaos

"That's right, good boy"

I break the window and approach the body,

 'he doesn't look so scary now...'

Looking at the large drop below me, I see several small figures heading towards the large trees that make up our entire small town.

'That's not my problem anymore, but why is it so dark?'

Leaving the thought aside, I observe the example of the body that while falling is smiling at me

'Those same eyes...'

The moment I'm taking the first step towards the gigantic fall

I hear footsteps and a voice that I would recognize even in another life

"Herran! NO! NOOOOOO!"
