Summary
Blanca was not a crisis counselor. He was the furthest thing from it, in all likelihood, but he would try. “Ash,” he called, letting the door fall shut with a slam behind him so Ash at least had some warning. “Will you please get down from there?”
“Why should I?” Ash shot back, but he turned away from the ledge all the same. His whole body trembled. From this distance, Blanca couldn’t tell if it was from the cold or adrenaline. He looked ethereal in the warm amber light reflecting off the snow, with large snowflakes settling in his hair. But his eyes were sunken and hollow, his body was gaunt, his skin was as pale as the snow around him. Maybe ethereal was just a pretty word for already dead.
Why should I? Blanca knew that question like a lover. He had held it on the tip of his tongue for years, decades, he had etched the shape of it into his mind.
christmas, a rooftop conversation, an exit.
