and lean forward until her lips are against mine, her soft lips moving against mine excited yet slow, I soon start to feel embarrassed from throwing myself at this girl I barely know, I pull away after a few moments “sorry I kind of attacked you there” I laugh nervously, “I didn’t mind” she chuckles.

“You can say no but could we hang out in my room for a while, I’d like to get to know you Amaya” she nods, “I’d like that too” we lie down side by side and start talking, I ask her when she started to exist, we talk for hours about our large array of thoughts and dreams, and she shares her experience of only been half a person that was unknown to the world, and how alone she felt.

“Sam sort of always knew I was here but her parents thought she was psychotic because she would be different when I took over, but even when she took the control she spoke to me so her parents thought she was mentally ill and that she had a split personality, but in truth I am just another side to her that is still her in the way I look but different in feeling and personality, did she ever tell you she was supposed to be a twin?” Amaya asks, I shake my head in response.

“Well she was supposed to be part of a twin but she absorbed me in the womb, so I guess that’s why I exist” she explains, I am taken aback for a moment processing the new information that’s been thrown at me, “does she know that? She told me she has a split personality” I ask.

“At first she knew I was her sister but over time because of her parents she decided to believe them and doesn’t really believe I’m real”.

“That must be so tough, the only person that knows you exist and even she doubts your existence” she lowers her eyes with a sigh.

“It has been, which is why I’m glad I have you to talk to, you’re the first person that’s made me believe I am real”, after such a deep talk we lay side by side in silence enjoying one another’s company, and for the first time in a long time I start to feel peaceful.

Colonels POV

Some time after training with April I decide to visit the kitchen where I know Sarah is cooking lunch, “Colonel what a pleasant surprise" greets Sarah, “lunch smells good" I praise, “it’s just some vegetable soup" she shrugs, she stirs the soup then turns back to me.

“I haven’t seen you around much lately, what have you been up to?” she asks, most days I chat with Sarah but with April taking up lots of my spare time I haven’t been visiting as much.

“I’ve been spending time with April” I reply, she beams back at me, “I’m so glad, with how they reacted that first night I worried you wouldn’t work things out" I nod in agreement, “despite how much time I missed, their mother did an excellent job, they’re great kids" I sigh, I just wish I could have made up with their mother while she was still around.

“I’m glad they have someone like you in their lives, someone to depend on, they may not be little kids but they still need someone to take care of them" I smile in appreciation of her words, I help her with the rest of lunch to make up for the time I’ve been away from her.

Chapter 10

 

Amaya’s POV

I sigh in content feeling April’s warmth radiating beside me as we both lay in peaceful silence just enjoying each others company, I have finally opened myself to someone and it felt good, like a huge weight was lifted off my chest, I finally feel like a real person with thoughts and feelings, this blissful feeling is soon short lived from the prodding by Sam inside my head.

I know this is her wanting the control, I give in knowing she deserves to spend some of our remaining time how she wishes too, “I’ve got to go April it’s Sam’s turn” we both sit up, she nods in understanding and hugs me goodbye, and the peacefulness is now replaced by guilt of the secret that is not mine to share, I wish I could tell her what happened and that I don’t know how much longer me and Sam have left, I wish I could tell her if I was my own person I would spend every remaining moment I have left with her, but instead I force a smile and leave her room.

April’s POV

Once Amaya has left, with many thoughts buzzing around my head I decide to visit the garden again to spend some time alone, once reaching the garden bench that resides in a quieter area of the garden, I find a boy I’ve seen before sat alone, I recognise him as Michael who helped my brother when he was hurt.

“Sorry I didn’t know someone was here, I’ll leave you be" I say and start walking back, “there’s enough room for two if you would like to join me" he smiles in a friendly manner.

“Sure" I return his smile and sit beside him taking in the beautiful scenery with a sigh.

“You seem as though you have a lot on your mind, it explains why you have come alone" he muses, his dark skin glistens under the sun, and his hazel eyes squint at its brightness.

“You’re not wrong there, it’s been a crazy couple of days" I admit, “I know we hardly know each other but you can tell me about your troubles if you like, sometimes it’s easier to confide in a stranger" he replies keeping his gaze on the scenery in front of him.

Strangely I feel compelled to speak with him, he seems
