Summary

This quote, although ambiguous and fragmented, suggests a narrator's state of deep depression. The mention of contemplating suicide by jumping from a high floor implies profound despair. The arrival of a priest may signify the search for solace or guidance in a moment of crisis. The subsequent reference to searching for parents reveals a sense of loss and confusion, amplified by the cop's uncertain response. The mention of Halloween adds a haunting quality, insinuating a disconnect between the narrator and their surroundings, as their identity may have been imitated by others.
