Chapter 151

How can she die while I am still alive?!
How can I allow that?!
How can I forgive myself?!
*ZZZZZZZZ*
The last thing I saw before the light had swallowed the entire mall within it was the warm and loving smile laced with dread, terror, and fear looking back at me.
She did not know what was about to hit her, yet she knew it would be her last moment.
The fear in her eyes... Her eyes then once shone like bright stars in the dark night.
The dreaded feeling of knowing you would die.
Her pale face filled with terror...
Yet, through all of that, I could see a single thing that stood out more than the rest.
Relief.
Relief that other than her, no one else had to die...
Relief that she had been the only one amongst us to land in such a miserable state...
With her last breath, she mouthed me her final words.
"Sur-vive." She spoke with a regretful smile. Regret washing over her as she knew that she would never be able to see me from that day onwards.
"Noooooooooo!" I bellowed while reaching my hand out towards her, just to see her disappear within the light.
I laid there frozen, not being able to move a single inch...
It was only then that my vision shattered and I was flung out of the vision and thrown awake but the sudden interference.
