I’m In Here – Sia
The dream sequence in this chapter was a real nightmare I had in April 2020; albeit it was about an old friend instead of the real Tyler. At the time, I kept a journal by my bed and wrote it down straight away before I forgot.
I do remember him calling though, and coming back to me after a few days, and how eager I was to have him back. Ironically, maybe I was the addict in the relationship as I jumped right back in without a hesitation. I believed him when he said he’d never do this to me again and would work to improve our relationship.
“Iris” was not too pleased with me, but I think she was secretly excited I was still going to Sydney so we could spend some time together.
The way he spoke about that day in July truly did feel so long ago. Only 7 weeks had passed and we felt so different. It was a strained relationship that was starved of touch and love. But, I still believed wholeheartedly that we could fix it and that one visit would heal all of the damage done and cross words exchanged. I never thought it would be my last.
