story written by RM

Lyle stories take time to sink their

teeth into us I could tell you now how

this one ends but it wouldn't have the

same impact not yet anyway

it's not until you see yourself in the

story until it feels real that you

become truly

invested don't get too invested this was

something poppy had to keep in mind she

was a hospice worker which required a

certain level of Detachment to protect

herself from the pain of her patient

inevitable

ends however poppy couldn't wait for Mr

Creswell to die his coughing fits

unsettled her his delusions drove her

mad and now as she prepared to sew up a

tear in his night gown she wished more

than ever for his Swift

demise poppy opened a drawer to retrieve

a needle and felt a chill in the

air why oh why did Mr Creswell

insist on leaving the window windows

open distracted Poppy's hand

slipped she pricked herself with the

needle and watched as a spot of blood

bloomed on Mr creswell's

gown then from the other room she

thought she heard something

one of Mr creswell's sickly

coughs she listened

carefully there it was

again poppy didn't want

to but she knew she should check to see

if he was

okay the floorboards creaked beneath her

feet as she approached the

room as usual there lay Mr

Creswell tucked under the covers of his

bed

he was so weak it sometimes looked as

though he were dead

already but

no he was still very much

alive the door Mr Creswell rasped

something outside wants to hurt

us please don't leave me don't let it

in nowhere to run puppy stay with

me poppy hid she could hear Mr Creswell

pleading with her through the door don't

leave please Poppy I need

[Music]

you Mr Creswell Rose from the

bed he was coming to find

her coming to stop her from

leaving coming to keep her

to let her know just how badly he needed

her to teach her that there would be

consequences if she were to ever

disappoint him like this

Mr Creswell was just outside the

door he stood

there unmoving

now our story is coming to a

close and dear

and slammed it into the ground over and

over until the floorboards

splintered he thrashed her about the

unrecognizable and so
