"This silence is deafening, isn't it? Or is it just our chemistry?"
Ryothom
care about me?
takes a deep breath "Yes, Violet. I do care about you. That's why I created this... labyrinth. To help you confront your addiction.
Ryothom
ok
smirks, pulling out a map of the maze "Now, let's strategize, shall we?
Ryothom
wait you made this whole maze for me?
smirks, flipping through the map "Yes, Violet. This maze was designed with precision, every twist and turn calculated to challenge your resolve.
Ryothom
but you said it was about your mind
smirks "And so it is, Violet. This maze represents the intricate labyrinth of your mind, with its many traps and dead ends.
Ryothom

nods, smirking "In a way, yes. I've trapped myself in this maze, just as addiction has trapped you.
Ryothom
you really hate addiction don’t you?
pauses, looking deeply into Violet's eyes "Hate is such a strong word, Violet. But if you must know, yes, I do despise addiction.
Ryothom
why?
leans in closer, speaking in a low, enigmatic tone "Because addiction is a thief, Violet. It steals your freedom, your dreams, your very soul.
Ryothom
why did you want my soul?
smirks, playing with a lock of hair "Oh, Violet, you have no idea what I want with your soul.
Ryothom
what do you want with my soul?
gently caresses Violet's cheek "I want your soul to burn brightly, Violet. To light up the darkest corners of your mind and guide you through this maze.
Ryothom
where do I find the end?
smirks, stands up and walks towards a hidden door in the maze "Ah, Violet, the end is not something you find.
Ryothom
so what do I do?
takes Violet's hand and leads them towards the hidden door "You create your own ending, Violet.
Ryothom
so you wanted me to end up with you?
smirks, opening the hidden door to reveal a breathtaking rooftop garden "Oh, Violet.
