i will eat you, gu.
i will eat you and live for an extraordinarily long time. i will outlive those who treated us as less than human. even as they grow old, fall ill, die - until they are long forgotten and their bodies disintegrate into nothingness - i will live. i will carry your remains with me to the very end of time. you will die only when i die. i won't follow you into death; i will have you follow me.
i won't watch you disappear.
i will live.
i will live to remember you.

how could i ever burn or bury such a beautiful body? how could i let that happen?
— i won't be able to do it, so please don't die before me.
— i feel the same, dam. but it will happen one day. should i just disappear and die by myself?
would that be better?
— that's the worst thing you could do. why don't we shelve this conversation and focus on everything we want to do together while we're still here? once we're feeling better, we'll joke about the morbid stuff and laugh off death like it's nothing.
as i lay back down, gu spoke again.
— if you die before me, i will eat you.
what should i do once this story is told? what could i possibly do? where should i go? i could go to the police and confess. i ate a person. a human being. is that a sin? they'll do with me as they see fit. i could say whatever they tell me to say, go wherever they tell me to go.
to tell this story and to live on: that is all i want.
"i was reborn, but i lived a half life. it's like this world was a blur. no one else was in focus. until you."
o benim karim.
she was surprised how much she wanted cyprian to be with her. or will. how much she wanted someone to stand beside her, so that at the end, she wouldn't be alone.
