Feed (The End)

Summary- As the story comes to a slow ending Violet and Titus runaway together.  Titus,however, no longer has the same type of feelings for Violet.  He feels her presence as more of a burden, like an irresponsible little sister, rather than relationship material.  As they check into the hotel I notice that Violet is almost completely not herself.  She wants to have intercourse with Titus and he does not, he know that she is not herself and that the Feed has taken control of her emotions and driven her to the point of insanity.  Finally Titus tells her what he's been feeling for a while now, he no longer wishes to be with her especially while she is in her destructive mood.  Violet is torn to pieces and the only way she can control herself is by cursing at Titus then finally giving in to his silence.

For the next weeks as Violet's condition worsens Titus refuses to grow back with her.  He has gotten back together with his ex-girlfriend, and seems to be quite happy.  Violet calls him constantly, as any ex-girlfriend would, and leaves him long messages,but they are not normal messages.  Violets Feed is eating away at her memories and she is afraid that she can no longer recall specific memories of her past, so begins to leave Titus messages on his Feed, and every message is a new memory.  She tells Titus of her first memory of riding her bike, and of the first thing she remembers smelling and tasting.  Titus listens to a few memories and then, as if to completely rid himself of Violet, erases them all from his Feed.  Violet tells Titus all of her intimate secrets, how she knows that she will never have children, or love anyone, or grow old,and Titus completely disregards what she says.  There was no way to understand what Titus was feeling if he was feeling anythong at all.

On the day of her daughters death, Violet's father sends out for Titus through some sort of messaging/communication.  Titus comes over and as he absorbs the state in which Violet was in during the last moments of her life, his emotions begin to spill.  Violets father hates Titus and blames him or all that has gone wrong with Violet and blames him for her death.  Titus is fnally left alone with Violet and he looks into her dead eyes and begins to cry.  The silence he put himself through for the months they were not together came out and he just sobbed and sobbed.  He lost her to what he enjoys so much, the Feed, and he will live with that for the rest of his life.
