Sykkuno takes a few steps and stops. He takes a deep breath and thinks for a bit, he decides to just do it and get it over with.

He raises his hand slowly, shapes it into a fist, and knocks on the door.

He waits patiently but anxiously, ready to see it all. It takes a second, but finally there was an answer.

Sykkuno sees the tall dark hooded guy open the door. He's faced with two of his tired dull eyes, and a face mask alone with black curly hair covering most of his face.

"Ssyyykkunno?" Corpse slurs

"H-hey! Uhm.... I uh.. i've noticed you've seem off these past couple of days, and i wanted to check on you... is that okay?" Sykkuno gulps, waiting for an answer.

"O-oh... uh...." Corpse hesitates, but just gives in.

"S-sure, come in uh- sorry if it's a mess-" corpse said, going to the side to let Sykkuno walk in.

Sykkuno goes in and is greeted by a cold dark and empty apartment, with little to no things on the ground spread out. He goes in and sits on a couch he spots. Corpse follows along and plops his whole body down on a separate couch next to the other one.

He leaves a big and lonely sigh and rests his head on the soft cushions. Sykkuno feels a bit more sympathetic for the boy.

"So, you wanna make sure i'm okay? Well news for you- i'm not doing okay at this moment-" corpse says.

Sykkuno flinches a bit by his voice, but feels a bit more comfortable.

"O-oh.. well... do you wanna talk about it? I heard releasing your bottled up feelings and emotions can be good for you-" sykkuno says slowly, almost as if he was scared.

"Hhhh.... I don't... know-" corpse doubts.

"Hm... well, do you want anything? Uh... what can make you happy?" Sykkuno asks.

Corpse stays silent for a bit. Time slowly trickling by.

"I guess you being with me is alright... it's good enough- i just need someone who i can feel vulnerable to-" corpse explains.

Sykkuno lightly smiles.

"Hmm... well do you think that you'll feel better in a couple of days?" Sykkuno asks.

"I'm not sure... i just, want a break from everything.. i mean i've been hit with everything all at once- first this huge school thing that i have... then feeling pain i already had ten times worse- and being seen as weak and weird in front of my peers... i just-... i can't take it-" corpse says.

"Of course you can't, you're a kid... your too young to experience any of this... but, that doesn't mean it can't stop you from doing the things you love-" sykkuno tries.

"Yeah but... when i think about it more.. i've been dealing this ever since the day i was born-" corpse started.

He sat up and faced sykkuno. The dark living room only giving slight signs of a figure being in front of him. Sykkuno sat silently, waiting to listen.

"I was born in a broken family- my parents gave me the worst name they can ever give to a child... my father left when i was three and i have no memory of him... my mom raised me in a pretty abusive environment... me and my sister tried our hardest to be strong and protect ourselves... and even when things seemed good they only lasted for a little bit... and when i finally had enough i just got backlashed for it-"

Corpse takes a few breaths and starts again.

"All my life... my thirteen years of living... i've just been trying to survive.... I have the most complex problems, i'm always thinking i'm never enough for people and bothering everyone- i'm not worth it- and i just can't take it anymore!" Corpse feels his eyes starting to have a sharp pain, almost watering.

He takes a deep breath, trying to hold himself in. Sykkuno lends out a hand to his shoulder, trying to comfort him.

"H-hey! Hey, you don't have to explain deeply or at all... don't overwork yourself-" sykkuno reassures.

Corpse looks at him and looks back down.

"I just... i wanna be happy... i want for my body to be healthy- and... to be well..." corpse finishes.

Sykkuno smiles lightly and chuckles a bit.

"Corpse... you know that everyone wants that right?" He starts

Corpse looks up with no emotion in his face.

"Everyone doesn't have it easy all the time, thats why we need people and support, and sometimes a break, i don't blame you feeling this and not wanting your problems, but in the end, it makes you strong... it's okay- you will be okay... i know it." Sykkuno ends with a positive smile, without covering his mouth.

Corpse smiles.

"I guess i can see that... hm... i just need to wait for right?" Corpse says.

"Yeah, and trust me, it'll be okay in the end-" sykkuno says as he gives a light hug to corpse.

Corpse felt a little better, seeing that people cared about him and gave him some advice. He smiled again.

"Yeah... and i don't think it's gonna get worse than this... it'll be fine-" sykkuno says.

"Hm-" corpse hums

He breaks the hug and sits down silently, in his head with his thoughts. Sykkuno stared at him waiting if he was gonna say anything.

"Thank you... sy... really... i kinda needed something to lift my spirits... you're a good friend." Corpse smiled.

"No problem... i figured... well, our friends all figured you needed it heh-" sykkuno says.

"Heh-" corpse chuckles.

It stays silent again, both of them on their thoughts.

"Uh- do you want anything to eat? Uh a movie maybe- or are you only here just to leave minutes after-" corpse asks.

"Uh.. i'm not sure heh... i just came here with the thought of helping you... not really anything else-" sykkuno says nervously.

"Hmm.. understandable-" corpse nods.

Corpse gets up and turns on the light, brightening the empty room. As he started to go back to the couch he gets a notification from his phone, he takes it out of his pocket and sees a text message from his little sister.

He looks at the screen confused and clicks the message. He reads the message and is concerned. Sykkuno notices from afar.

"You okay?" He asks.

"Uh-" corpse looks up, then back to his phone.

"Uhm... can you give me a minute please?" Corpse asks.

"Uh- s-sure!" Sykkuno says.

Corpse quickly goes to his bathroom and starts a call to his sister. He was a bit concerned about the text she sent.

She answers and it stays silent for a while.

"Marla?" Corpse starts.

"O-oh what the-" she jumps,

"When did your voice get so low?!" She asks.

"O-oh.... Heh... uh... time-" he answers.

"I see-" she says.

"Uhm-.. is everything okay? You okay?" Corpse asks.

"Uh yeah, i'm good!... uhm... it's about mom-" she starts

"Why, is she hurting you? Is she out again- or is she doing anythingg?" Corpse asks, begging for answers.

"Uhm.. n-no Corpse.. uhm... she's uh.... Well, she's sick-"

Corpse's heart drops for a second, but waits to listen.

"Oh... is she okay?" He asks

"Uhm... well she has this very dangerous thing... the doctors told her that it can kill her... i don't know what it is though-" she says, her innocent high voice having a sense of worry.

"Oh.. no... uhm.. well do you know the name of the illness?"

"It starts with a C... uhm.... C... c..car... can... uh- C-cancer! It was cancer-" she says.

Corpse's heart stops.

He feels the realization...

He collapses on the floor.

"Corpse!?" His 10 year old sister asks, seeing that she heard something fall from his end of the device.

"Is-... is she okay?" He asks breathlessly, gulping.

"Uhm... she's just... confused? I don't know... she's getting the medicine she needs... and they're like doing some experiments and things or whatever, i don't know haha!" She says.

"Mm..." he hums

"Alright, uhm- is there any way i can help?" He says.

"I'm not sure.. want me to ask mom?"

"Oh n-no no! That's unnecessary... uhm, you know what it's fine-" he takes it back.

"Oh, okie... uhm.. yeah i just wanted to tell you that, i'll try to tell you any other things you need too!" She says.

"Okay, heh... thank you, Marla, stay safe." Corpse says

"Your welcome! And you too! Love ya brother! And i miss ya." She says positively.

He chuckles

"Yeah.. love ya too, hopefully we get to see each other soon-... uhm, b-bye-"

"Bye corpsey!" She says finally. And he ends the call.

He stays sitting down, thinking about what just happened... a bit shaken by the sudden news.

'Fuck.... I have this now... oh well, like i care-'

Corpse gets up, tries to put on a positive face, and gets out the door, seeing Sykkuno still waiting.

Sykkuno notices and looks up.

"Hey! You okay?" He asks.

Corpse stays silent, still thinking... then, he just decided what was best.

"Uhm... s-sy, i uh..-" he starts

"Hm?" Sykkuno hums.

"Uh.. i just..." corpse looks around the room, avoiding eye contact.

"Uhm.. can you, please leave?... uh, please?" Corpse says as he looks down nervously.

"Uh, oh.. uh sure, but why?" Sykkuno asks.

Corpse feels restless. He doesn't want to deal with this right now.

"Uhm- something just happened, and i don't want to deal with it right now.. and i don't want to bother you with it as it is my problem-" corpse says.

"Oh, well i'm sure we can settle down and talk about it, i'm sure it'll be oka-"

"No Thomas-" corpse volumes his voice louder.

Sykkuno gets a bit frightened.

"It's n-not okay-... and.... I can't- i need to be alone-" corpse says with his voice breaking up.

"Uh-... s-sorry, i'll go-" sykkuno gets his things and heads out the door, corpse follows back and opens the door for him.

"Y-you sure you'll be okay?" Sykkuno asks kindly as he steps out the door.

"No...." Corpse says blandly.

"A-alright-" sykkuno says shakily.

"I can't deal knowing... things got 100% worse...... my mom has cancer-" he says. Tears ready to fall.

"Oh no! Uh.. don't worry, i'll be with you, uh be strong?" Sykkuno says unsurely.

"Uh huh- goodbye... sorry-" corpse whispers.

"B-bye-" sykkuno waves with a smile.

Corpse slowly closes the door, seeing his friend's face disappear from the gateway to his home.

He stares at the door with a blank face, he turns around, his back facing the door, and just collapses. He curls himself into a ball, and just cries silently. Thinking about all the things that have entered his life, and just asking why he's deserving this.

Sykkuno on the other side looks at the door with a blue face.

He feels bad for his friend, but just decides to leave. Leaving the whole situation deal with itself. And hoping it'll be okay for him.

4:21pm

Sykkuno enters the school campus by the gate. He sneakily walks towards the dormitory buildings knowing he just "escaped" the school without permission.

As he starts walking to his dorm building he sees Rae, Jack and Lily sitting at the steps outside.

"Uh hey guys?" He starts.

Rae notices him and shouts while she runs to him.

"SYKKUNO-"

She greets sykkuno with her strong hands on his firm shoulders and shakes him violently.

"WHAT HAPPEN, WHAT DID HE SAY, IS HE OKAY? TELL ME SY, TELL MEEEEE!!"

"jeSUs RaE-" he says as he gets shaken by his friend.

"Rae! Calm down!" Jack chuckles as he gets closer.

"So! What happened!?" Lily asks

"Uhm-" sykkuno goes.

They all stare at him waiting to hear news about his friend.

"Uhm... well... heh a lot, but uh.. he told me that he's been struggling with some stuff.. and that it's been adding up... i told him it'd be okay.. but then he received news that his mom has cancer... and... he didn't look well after, that-" sykkuno says with a more low tone.

Everyone's faces turned upside down. They all felt bad and worried.

"Oh no! His mom!?" Rae said

"Oh no-" jack cried,

"What?" Lily whined.

"Uh.. y-yeah, i figure just give him time... he isn't in a good place right now..." sykkuno suggested.

"Hm, well i hope he will be..." rae says

"Yeah... me.... Too-" sykkuno follows.

Leaving them feel sorry for their friend, and just hope that it will be okay.

October 14,
8:35am

Rae, Sykkuno, Toast, and along with a few other mutuals and friends, were all worried the past few days. Worried about their friend...

He hasn't come to school for about a week it seemed. And he hasn't tried contacting anyone and even if others did he wouldn't even see or reply to any of their texts. They were all concerned for Corpse's well being and his family as well.

The school got a note from supposedly "Corpse's Mom" saying that she has cancer and will be taking corpse on a small break to gather up their feelings and to care for one another. But Jack and a few people who were very close to Corpse were a bit suspicious since they knew corpse wasn't that close to his mother.

But soon enough, everyones wishes for corpse to come back well, have came true...

There's a knock on the 1st period door. Mrs. Ramirez was just about to start the lesson. But went to the door to open it, as she did she saw Mr. Plett, along with someone she hasn't seen in a while.

"Oh! Mr. Plett hello! And, oh! Look who's here! Haven't seen you in what seems like forever! You good son?" She says in surprise, leaving a few students to ponder who she was talking about.

"Heh, yup, he's all good now... he just needs some support that's all." Mr. Plett said sounding as his chill self.

"Well, come on in, your friends have been asking for you, and don't worry, i'll try not to make you overwork yourself too much." Mrs. Ramirez says with a smile, letting the student go in.

As he took a step inside he glanced at the classroom again, remembering the feeling of school again.

As he got in and was facing the whole class, he saw his friend's faces light up.

"CORPSE-" Rae yelled.

She got up and ran towards the front of the classroom.

"Corpse!" Sykkuno said excitedly, stepping out of his seat and taking a fast stride to meet his friend.

Toast in the other hand, stood up with a straight face and walked, of course he is a friend of Corpse and he had to show his empathy towards him.

Rae jumped towards corpse and embraced him in a hug, sending him back a little from the weight. Corpse was a bit confused but hugged back.

Sykkuno was finally close enough to corpse, and was a bit hesitant to go at first, but decided to hug him as well. Leaving corpse hugging his two friends on each hand, tight enough to show them he missed them.

For a couple a seconds it was just them three hugging, and finally Toast came, he approached corpse slowly and put out a fist bump.

"Nice to see you, homie" toast said.

Corpse stared at him in the eye, but returned the fist bump.

"Nice to see you again too- Toast.." corpse said with his very deep raspy voice.

The whole class stared at their moment. A few sympathetic, a few glad for them. And some girls, a bit jealous that Rae, and Sykkuno were hugging Corpse. And all they wished was if they could be close enough to do that to him...

Both teachers smiled, knowing it must've been a rough journey for all of them. But it had to end sadly.

"Alright fellas- i know corpse is back but we have to start class!" Mrs. Ramirez started.

"Come on Ms.- just a little more?" Rae asked as she kept hugging her friend.

"I would love for you to continue your reunion but come on, school isn't for hugging only, it's for learning. You all can give your affection to corpse during lunch or period breaks alright?" She says as she went to her desk.

"Alrightttt-" rae slurred.

She let go of corpse and so did sykkuno. They all went back to their seats and Corpse followed behind them.

As Rae, Sykkuno and Toast went to their table already sitting down, their friend didn't leave their spot.

Sykkuno looked up to see corpse.

"Uh- mind if i can sit with you guys?" Corpse asks politely, almost shy.

Sykkuno looks at rae, she looks happy, she looks back at Toast, and he gives a shrug.

"MISS- CAN CORPSE SIT AT OUR TABLE!?" Rae shouted.

Mrs. Ramirez, a bit startled by the sudden loudness, looked up and saw the students.

"Oh, uh sure it doesn't matter-" she says as she soon starts the lesson.

Corpse moves his desk next to his friends desk spot. And they all sat down and started learning their lesson. Of course, it wouldn't have been complete without some goofs or laughing around once in a while.

12:28pm

Corpse, the Amigops, the main OfflineTV students, and everyone else friends with each other sat together, just spending the time of their lives with their friend who has come back.

Corpse actually had a pretty good day, having time with friends, meeting new people. Having good grades, paying attention for once. And not having any bad symptoms at all. He knew that the small break he took paid off. And if it weren't for Greg to give the school a fake note as Corpse's mom, he'd be in trouble for even skipping a day.

But as Corpse thought about it, he actually liked school, he loved going to school. Even though studies are pretty over-working and overwhelming, it can actually be pretty easy. Even though Corpse hated the thought of school, he loved going all the time because he was prepared to have a good time in his day.

And it was all because of his friends.....

Friends...

He never really had 'friends', those that he was, they'd make fun of him for his face, handwriting, picking on every insecurity, they mostly bullied him. But with those he had a great time with, only lasted shortly. He was always labeled the "weird kid". And always had a fear of being friends with someone or being noticed by something he does in fear of embarrassment.

But this school is different.... It's the people there.

They're a lot kinder, and actually respect people's boundaries. They always let him know if something's wrong, they always look out for him, and they're always there to support in anything that he does. And he loves it! He loves spending time with the people he cares about. With people he grew a bond with.

Corpse never had real friends. He felt weird knowing that people were actually being nice to him. He wasn't used to it. Seeing as he only had 3 bonds that were with his family throughout his lifetime. But these friends, these people. They're like his family, the family he always wanted.

And that's the reason that made him like school. Because even if he didn't think he'd even socialize for one bit. It all changed for the better for him. And he was never gonna let these friends go.

Because they're the only thing making him happy, and keeping him going.

...

5:09pm

Corpse turns the doorknob and opens the door.

He grabs his trash bag tight. He looks out of the door, seeing heavily pouring rain.

He looks around the
