*..? *You stare at the two girls in the picture, confused. *You can tell one is Chara, but the other one you aren't sure about. *Then you realize it's Cress.
Many of you are probably confused as to why I suddenly want to defend Chara.
Chara and I are more alike than you think.
Chara felt horrible, like the worst person. Why else would she try to commit suicide? I always feel shitty and terrible. I've been close to killing myself a couple of times. Whenever something good happens in her life, everything comes crashing down. Obviously, the same thing for me. We are the two most misunderstood. She's assumed evil because no one really knows who she is. I'm assumed as a rude and cruel person who only cares about myself. Because of one thing everyone sees about Chara, they aren't willing to forgive her. That's happened to me so many times in real life. It's something that no one can ever truly bear to accept. Chara was willing to die to free all her friends and family. Me? I want to free you all from the burden of simply knowing me. Of dealing with my depression. Anxiety. Outbursts. Everything. Chara lost all her friends and family. I lost my best friend who felt like family. I won't ever see so many of friends ever again.
And that's why... When you find someone you're like, you don't ever want to let go. Chara, despite being a fictional character, is the closest thing to me. She laughs away pain and stress. I do the same. She likes puns. I do too. I am so much like her.
You may all say, "Oh but that's not who you really are!" "We can find the real you!"
But I know, as well as the rest of you, that this is the real me.
I don't want to let go of Emma. She was random like me. I can't let go of her, because she was so important to me. I don't want to let go of Chara, the good one. I can relate so much to her. I can't let go of her because she's fictional, and that just hurts so much more when a fictional character is the only one that can understand me. I don't want to let go of you guys. You've tried to help me through so much, and I love you all. But I have to now.
I promise you all that I'll be back. I'm just not sure when. Even though it hurts, I can't leave forever.
