Heart Book 3...this is really 2 pages which should be read side by side, but u can't really do that here

When i woke up this morning it took a while for me to click on to the fact that something weird had happened.

woke morning click weird happened

It was only once i was in the shower that i realised that something was missing.

missing
something
something was missing


(spoken in a lilting, singsong voice)
o he woke he woke
yes this he spoke
he woke up in the morning

he spoke no joke
when he thus spoke
he woke when day was dawning

It seemed like there was this big hole in my chest, and when i felt around with my hand; it was like i couldn’t feel my heart

he woke he woke

Like my heart had jumped out of my mouth or something.

he woke up in the morning






We see the red figures of the alarm clock click over from 7:59 to 8:00

He wakes with a yawn, stretches, turns off the alarm, and clambers slowly, sleepily, out of bed.

Cut to the shower, where we see him stop, midway through his soaping routine, to feel his chest with his right hand.





(we hear a children’s rhyme spoken in a lilting, singsong voice)









Close up of his face, which is steadily growing ever more disheartened.
