Chapter 60

   (Reader)

     I felt free.

And I was free.

Finally.

I was finally free.

But not quite free yet.

I'm not free yet.

I'm not free yet..

Without him..

I'm not free without Jack..

I turned back.

But something had vanished.

The Mansion.

'Once you leave the mansion, you won't be able to see it nor enter it ever again..' The voice echoed in the back of my mind.

Tears were on my eyelashes.

I didn't resist.

I let them fall.

One by one, tears were falling off my face.

Pain was falling off my face.

Love was falling off.

I was falling off..

(Jack)

I knew she wouldn't be able to come back again.

But I was.

Sooner or later, I'm going to visit her.

I promise.

I swear.

I hope..

I felt like I was going to laugh yet cry at the same time.

"So, you let her go?" A voice asked behind me.

Tears vanished from my eyes.

I turned around.

There was Eyeless Jack, staring at me with his eyeless eyes.

"Yeah.." I said, choking on my words.

"Hey, you did the right thing." He said softly.

'I hope so,' I thought

"You'll visit her soon enough. I know you." Eyeless Jack replied

"But, what about Slender?" I asked.

"I've dealt with that." He said, smiling under his mask.

"So, what are you waiting for? Go get your lady." Eyeless Jack teased.

My heart stopped.

I raced towards Eyeless Jack, hugging him tightly.

"Thanks so much!" I practically yelled.

Eyeless Jack looked taken back. But he awkwardly patted my back.

Eyeless Jack coughed into his hand, awkwardly. 

"Okay, umm.." 

"Oh, oops. Sorry." I apologized, already racing for the door.

"Good luck!" He yelled after me.

I raced outside.

It was time to fix the mistake.
