Spiraling; again, again and again.
That’s everything Ian have been able to do for the last few months. From going AWOL, being wanted for attempted thief — whatever the military police had said — to working at the White Swallow without anyone knowing.
Well, not anyone when you have been following your best friend around like a shadow. Ian didn’t seem to mind you; even when you tried to resonate him into getting back home. Having too much fun! he said, but you were worried.
You knew something was wrong and nothing could push your worries away as time passed. So one day, you finally passed by the Milkovich’s house where Ian was staying, not moving from the bed he shared with Mickey. It broke your heart to see him like that.
It was like his attitude had took a 360 degree turn; gone was the joyous boy; but why? And how it had happened? Whispers from Lip and Fiona made you realize that it could be bipolar disorder coming directly from Monica, their mother.
You tried to make the red-haired boy sit up and eat something — take a shower, anything to make him leave the bed but he didn’t move.
“I don’t want to. Let me sleep, please.” he told you in a quiet voice. You had to help, but you just didn’t know how and didn’t know what was happening to your best friend.
