Submarine

cages-or-wings:

“Whenever I’m late home from school, my mother assumes that I’ve been abducted and left to drown in the lake. My mother is worried that I have mental problems. I found a book about teenage paranoid delusions during a routine search of my parents bedroom. After that I started slipping certain choice phrases into our conversation. ‘My body has been replaced by a shell.’ ‘My internal organs are made of stone.’ ‘I’ve been dead for years.’”
