In this new life, I was far less carefree than the time when I was just a soul.

I had regained my emotions, my desires, and after a period of blankness, all of them came rushing back at once. It felt like a herd of wild horses galloping across the plains, or a flood during the rainy season, surging uncontrollably. The intensity of those emotions overwhelmed me, making it impossible for me to control them.

The wind in my ears seemed to fade. Anna seemed to say something after she had gotten out of the car, but I couldn't hear her.

The towering sculpture before me stood like a lighthouse in the dark night. I was but a small boat adrift in the vast ocean, pulled toward it little by little.

It pulled me forward, step by step.

When I reached the sculpture, snow that hadn't yet melted covered its surface.

Tears began to fall from my eyes, landing in the snow at my feet. The warmth from my tears created small indentations in the snow.

Maybe, to everyone else, I must have seemed possessed in that moment.

I couldn't hear them calling my name. I trembled and reached out my hand, slowly brushing the snow off the sculpture.

It was strange.

This was my body, yet it felt like an old friend I hadn't seen in a long time. The emotions inside me were so complicated that I didn't even know which one was the strongest.

A deep, impenetrable sadness cloaked me entirely.

"Zoey, what are you doing?" When I didn't respond, Anna called out and tugged at me.

I sensed that something was controlling my mind.

There was only one thought in my head.

She felt cold.

I'm Chloe, but I'm not just Chloe.

My hands, red from the cold, kept brushing the snow off the sculpture, no matter how numb they became. Then, Carter's voice broke through. "Don't forget, you're injured! Do you want to get yourself killed again?" Although Zoey's wounds weren't fatal nor deep, any sudden movements could easily cause them to tear open again.

A second injury could be worse than the first.
