Part 20 - Side Effects

~Chilled's POV~

"Just - Hold on Chilled," I slightly hear Minx's voice from a distance accompanied with a sudden flash of light overcoming my sight. 

"Chilled-? Holy fu-" Ze's voice calls out followed by another flash of light. I'm not even sure how to describe the sensations overcoming me. All I did was follow a woman into a dark room and now this shit is happening. I swear she drugged me or something. This is a strange tribe thing right? It could be drugs now that I think about it.

"Chilled?" A sudden familiar voice calls out and I immediately freeze, dropping any thought I had before and focus on the single voice in front of every other annoying calling voice. "Chilled, where did you go? Why did you leave?" A the words I feel my heart break but before I can continue to focus on the voice another voice calls out loud enough to deafen me.

"Chilled don't you dare fucking listen to any other voice than mine! Any other voice is dangerous, you better fucking listen to me," Minx's voice shouts before all of the others and with her high-pitched and annoying voice it isn't hard to ignore the others as they're clearly out done by Minx. Although I feel a bit bad for abandoning Adam's voice I focus on Minx and following her advice since she is the professional here so for now, fuck Adam and Ze.

Suddenly a sudden pain enters my stomach and the same effects and feelings as the transformations over come me and I even feel my skin itch and shrink into the size of the small guy before I warm up suddenly enough for me to suspect a fever and I grow once again. The pains continue going through the cycle to the point I can't hear any of the voices at all but only focus on the pain I've become so familiar with. After what feels like hours of the pain it all suddenly disappears so suddenly and quickly it feels surreal. I gasp as a large light overcomes me and I regain control of my hands, balling them into fists again and again before opening my eyes and seeing the whiteness of the world around me. Slowly I pick myself up into a sitting position before a dark blackness overcomes me and my position retreats to the laid down position. The annoying proccess continues several times before I truly do sit and stay seated. Suddenly a wave of sayings come rolling towards me, each so familiar.

"Chilled. I'm with you." Are you really fucker? I don't see you anywhere nearby. Even if I was the one who left you... I miss you.

"Chilled. I like you." I remember this. You were delusional when you said this. It still meant a lot for me either way though. I guess I never expected someone to say it so outright, even if you were burning up with a fever.

"Are you here Chilled?" You always ask this first thing when you enter the shop. I always found it nice and refreshing, and I liked it a lot more than I probably should have.

"Hey Chilled, aren't you mad at me?" I've never been mad at you before as much as I should be. Damn it Adam, why are you so hard to be mad at?

"Chilled? You finally home?" That's right fucker I'm back.

"Fine. Never speak to Ze again." You're really an idiot. This has to be one of the stupidest things you've ordered me to d and one of the stupidest things I actually did. It was all an effort to be ripped away from my best friend for you. I should have dumped you right then and there, but I just wanted to get to know you more. I didn't want you to get angry and leave, I was already head over heels for you at this time. It had really been too late by this time.

"Thank you, Anthony." ...

Well holy shit am I really going to lose these memories, suddenly thinking about all of them? Or was Minx lying when she told me I can't die and this is the flash of my life before I truly die and likely go to hell? If this is a flash of memories of my life I must have really been deluded thinking memoried of Adam were what composed my entire life. A bright flash flashes in front of me and pure darkness is what substitutes it afterwards but I can most definitely feel my every muscle ache as if I just went out working out for seven weeks straight. Why seven, I don't fucking know. My eyes suddenly close and open making me realize my eyes are open, I hadn't even noticed my eyes were open because everything is so god damn dark. We must still be in that room MInx had led me into to get the curse off, which reminds me, am I really curse free?

"Chilled? Are you awake?" Ze's voice suddenly appears, shocking me and making me look around but not a single movement in the darkness.

"Yeah, where are you?" I ask, glancing around before I suddenly feel a grasp on my arm making me jump and shout. "Holy fuck man, tell me you're right beside me," I snap but when I hear no response I just sigh. "Turn the lights on already man," I complain and Ze continues to stay silent before suddenly I feel his hand directly on my face making me jump backwards and throw my hands hitting his hand away. "What the fuck man?!"

"Chilled, can you not see?" Ze finally asks and I just stare in the direction where the hald came from and realization overcomes me.

"Holy - are you saying I'm fucking blind?" I snap and Ze stays silent before I can hear the door to the room open and close from somewhere in the room.

"Hey, hey, congratulations on the curse removal," Minx announces just as I feel tiny slips of paper lands on my hands. I lift my hands, feeling the papers slide off and stay silent, unsure if it's really confetti or just some trash she threw on me. "So what are the side effects? I'm curious," Minx suddenly beams, her voice truly showing excitement in my own pain.

"He...he can't see," Ze explains and the room becomes eerily quiet.

"Well at least he has his memories and life," Minx says suddenly makin gme glare at nothing in particular making her just beam out laughing. "Ah well, it might be temporary. See a doctor when you go back to America. Krism and I are going back to England today, I just came to see the outcome. Have a lovely curse-free life, and I better didn't get a curse out of this because that's a possibility," Minx snaps suddenly but footsteps and the door opening and closing sound again and I'm assuming they left. Or they're still here and they're pulling one on me. Holy fuck I can't see. I cover my eyes with my hands and lift them off, as if doing that would magically grant me my sight back but nothing is to be seen. 

"Are you sure you can't see? You don't have something in your eye or something?" Ze asks cautiously and I just glare at the invisible man. Ze laughs nervously before it sounds like he got up and suddenly I feel panicked and hold my hands out to where I think he was and I feel his hands grab onto my wrists. "Calm down, I'm still here. I'm going to order the tickets for the trip back. I'm going to... I'll get you some food I guess." His hands withdraw from my arms and the door opens and closes, leaving me in absolute silence. I can't even get up and head over to the telephone shop, the place I've been going to every morning ever since I've gotten here for my daily attempt to call Nanners. At least I still have the memory of Adam, despite how worried all those recollections of memoried with him had made me. 

I close my eyes, the only difference is that I feel my eyes are closed and my eyes are stinging from the air. When I open my eyes the darkness stays. It's as if everything I've known thus far has been switched now that I can't see at all. Calm down Chilled, Minx said it may just be a temporary thing. But may means it may not be a temporary thing, right? I feel tears roll up to my eyes but I push them back, surpirsed they even got there to begin with. This isn't sad, it's a good thing I'm well and alive, curse-less even. Still, the sudden drastic change in my life makes my breathing faster and panic fill my chest. Quickly my hands fall onto my face, checking if there's anything on my face covering my eyes and theyre all pulling one on me but nothing at all. The only thing I feel is the same face I've had throughout all of the years I've been alive. Panic fills my lungs again and my breathing quickens while the tears threaten to fall again. God damn, did I also become more emotional after the whole thing went down?

The door opens again and I quickly raise my head towards the sound, though nothing at all is different in that spot rather than any other spot in the darkness. The steps towards me are all clearly heard but not a single image is different there than any other spot. The lack of talking, the lack of any noise being made by this person also makes me panic, the idea this could be anyone and I would be completely unaware.

"Woah there Chilled, you look like you're having a breakdown," Ze suddenly says, calming down one fear but I quickly reach my hands out towards the figure and feel something warm. Ze grabs onto my wrists and places them back on my lap before sitting on the bed right next to me, calming me down completely knowing he's right next to me.

"Anyways, we're leaving tomorrow. I told Galm about the situation, and I tried to call Nanners but got no answer." I nod slowly, my heart warming up knowing he tried to call Nanners because he's known that for the past days I've been constantly trying to call him. I'm coming home soon though, I'll be safe at home and I'll be able to run into Adam's warm arms again. He'll be there waiting for the moment I arrive and he'll be completely open, support me completely because we've both built a strong trust with each other. My thoughts all on Adam seems to calm me down a lot more as I stare blankly into the space in front of me.

"Alright, I can't fucking see, Ze," I mention and he just stays silent from beside me, the laugh I had been expecting no where to be heard. I slightly glance over to his direction, seeing nothing but darkness despite knowing Ze is right beside me in the room we have been staying in for the past few days already. Taking a deep breath I nod and stare straight forward once again, staying silent as I find a loss for words to say besides continually repating that I can't see. It's the most immediate thing and something that I feel is missing. The entire time, holding to Ze closely as we enter the cab to drive to the airport and even eating, everythign seems to be on Ze's hands. Rather than leaving my dependence on Ze I seem to be depending on him even more than ever, and although it irritates me I can't do anything about it at all. I just hold onto the hope Adam will look after me as I return home and take it off of Ze's hands.

Once in the airplane itself I lay my head onto the window, staring into the blankness of the empty meaningliess sky. Ze, I think, is asleep on my other side while I'm left on my own to my own imagination. I miss Adam. I've known him for around a few months, only a few months and yet I feel as if he's the closes to me now. I feel as if I'm relying on his trust for me too much, but I guess it's the only thing that I can really go on for now after having gotten to know him so well. The airplane suddenly bumps and the pilot's voice echoes from the speakers and Ze seems to shift. I guess he wasn't sleeping after all, I just assumed after he hadn't spoken for a long time. Taking a deep breath I sit up straight in anticipation as the airplane bumps onto the ground to a rougher landing than I'd like, but the obvious sign we've landed has me tense in anticipation.

"Ze, Chilled," Galm's voice calls out and I smile in the direction but walkign carefully, hanging onto Ze's arm to make sure I'm walking in the right direction. "Are you alright Chilled?" Galm asks cautiously and I nod, holding my hand out before I feel Galm's hand touch mine and pulls me into a  hug. "I'm sorry, friend," he says as he lets me go and says his greetings with Ze.

"How is everybody?" Ze asks and Galm stays silent for a while.

"Chilled, I'd been meaning to tell you this over the phone," Galm mentions and I slightly recall having spoken with him over the phone before getting interuppted. "It's... Nanners actually left town around a week ago."
