Summary
(TRIGGERS: Self-harm, please read with caution!)
Jim's eyes subconsciously follow the fresh blood dripping from his upper arm down to his forearm and hand, breathing slow and steady instead of quick and harsh. He looks up at the calendar on the wall and sees the date. Oh... that's why the urge to cut has been so strong today.
The bright '07/14' seems to glare back at him. July 14th, the day that his father had left him and his mom for good because he "couldn't handle the responsibility of raising a family", as he'd heard him put it during an argument with Sarah the night before. That was the single worst night of his life, not to mention the afternoon that Leland had boarded a ship and never looked back, not even having the decency to say goodbye to his only son.
It's always today... always today that the cutting gets really bad.
