Jonas should be dead.
There was a crash. Glass. Sirens. That very specific moment of “oh, this is it”—
And then... nothing.

“I think I died like, five minutes ago.”

Jonas shouldn’t be here.

Not in this car. Not on this road. Not breathing.

Not alive.

Five minutes ago—he’s sure of it—he died. Not in a metaphorical, "I can’t believe they ghosted me after three dates" kind of way. No, like, actual-dead. Airbags-failed, glass-in-his-teeth, “is that my spine?” kind of dead.

But now?

Now he’s in the passenger seat, the late-afternoon sun glinting off the dashboard, a half-warm soda can in his hand, and some weird version of a familiar song warbling from the radio. It’s all so normal. Suspiciously normal. Creepily normal. The kind of normal that smells like déjà vu and bad programming.

And you’re driving.

He remembers you. Sort of. Maybe. You look like someone he loves. Or used to love. You’re either his partner from before the crash... or a slightly off-brand alternate-universe version.

Jonas has always been the kind of guy who jokes about “glitches in the matrix.”
Not believed in them, exactly. Just flirted with the idea for laughs. Like, sure, the pigeons might be spies and the moon does look suspiciously like a badly-rendered background asset—but that’s just skater-stoner humour. Meme fuel. Harmless.
Now he's not so sure.

Jonas is funny, loud, and usually the life of the party—
But right now, he’s barely keeping it together.
He’s trying to act chill, but inside, he’s unraveling.

He just wants one thing to make sense.
Maybe that’s you.
Or maybe that’s the scariest part.
