"You're just getting worse..."
It wasn't Shakelia's fault he couldn't see the invisible. Derek refused what couldn't be proven empirically. It was no wonder when she said simply getting up in the morning was hell, he payed no attention, gave no affection.
See no evil, speak no evil. Derek thought she was a liar; Shakelia knew the truth.
See was dying from an invisible disease, suffering a series of infections and heart palpitations each day. It started in her dreams, than manifested itself in her body.
No sleep.
No dreams.
No future.
No past.
Just an achy, makeup less shell...
