I can still hear his voice. His cold, unnerving laugh.

##**dalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala**

I see him everywhere. I can’t even step foot in the kitchen out of fear for what I may see resting atop the sink.

##**dalalalalalalllalalalalalalalalalala**

Everywhere I go, I see Spongebob Squarepants in the corner of my eye. I try to run, but his shrill laugh leeches closer.

##**daaaaalalallaaallaalaalalalalaalllalall**

I should have never left Bikini Bottom. I told myself that this is what I wanted, that this would turn my life back around, the way it once was.

I thought I would feel safe again. I thought I would feel… happy again. Now all I feel is remorse, regret, and…

Oh.

No.

^**Heh** ^**heh,** ^**heh**

It’s not Spongebob anymore, it’s…
