"You could die at any moment."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7qpxcOvsD
I don't think any of us really understands this statement until someone close to you passes away suddenly, or you encounter a near-death experience yourself.
One second, I was driving on the highway as always.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIN0vb0Gwc
Without warning, an incredible impact from behind.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOqod87pfr
A deafening screech.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHgU2BcDjV
Glass shattering.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9i1bDx4T7
Lights flashing.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetI0bZEj1w
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoywUak1sE9
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GgiGb72kW
Then, there was stillness. A distant beeping of hazard warning lights going off.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GamxwSUiW
Red stained my blurry vision, and my whole body throbbed. I could hear the sound of my own shallow breathing.
This is a dream, isn't it?459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1hGxsOdpe
It always is. 459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CzRYttVT7
When I close my eyes, I'll wake up on my bed. 459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGXZm2QrBf
Yeah. It must be. 459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAktwnc4af1
Please let it be.
It wasn't.
You've got to be kidding me. What kind of irresponsible driver would crash into me full throttle? 459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0N6iH2mH3
I muttered a string of curse words under my breath. I cursed them and their family.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbs0LDq07hp
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmPJC1MWo9
If only I had stopped at that yellow light two minutes ago. If only I had taken the bus. If only I had brought my umbrella. If only. If only time could rewind.
My body gradually started getting colder. A kind of numbness filled me, slowly swallowing my senses. 459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf88Rku3JWX
Not a good sign.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9tRALGA7y
Fear started growing within me.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1h0wt4IFX9
When are the police coming?459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SZPx4NSX2
Is this really the end?459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUURJfxmspn
I can't die. I can't die like this. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to die.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWkyHG6qaM
My breaths grew quicker. At this point, I couldn't even move an inch of my body. All I could do was tremble in fear and in the cold.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRdj0RAahR

What did I ever do with my life? There are so many more things I have to do. I need to read the ending of "Eleceed." I haven't finished writing my first novel yet. I haven't been to a club, nor drank a cocktail yet. I haven't travelled overseas by myself yet. I...
I haven't said "I love you" to my parents.
But they'll be fine, won't they? They've got Sara. 459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTng5os4kz6
Will anyone else care if I'm gone?459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxtsOqizJ7
At the end of the day, I never achieved anything. I came into the world with nothing, and I will leave with nothing.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4bGc3K3mN
It's not like I was a particularly kind person, either. I wonder... did I ever make an impact in someone's life?
Ah.
Steven.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfgMoIGm98
...What would he do without me? Would he be taken back to a shelter? Or to my parents? 459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nlytIoxGQ
Would he even be found?459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDwD73mKSa
It's funny that I would start caring as my life ends.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7hJ7l8268
I wasn't a good owner or anything. I got him on impulse at the shelter, but once I got busy, I would neglect him. Hand him over to my roommate. 459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHu919byvX
Sometimes, he would be limping when I came back from work, but I pretended I didn't notice.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkl0vh89rXO
However, when I felt like playing with him again, he had the happiest smile on his face, making a sense of guilt wash over me. 459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQ5cu8O2q7
I would often take my frustrations out on him when I had a bad day. Nevertheless, at the end of the day, he would always curl up beside me to sleep, as if nothing had happened.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JLpHI6KSg
459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHDrOSo19t
He was always waiting.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAAWcP5wYY
Waiting for me to come home.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MlJnNmsuh
Waiting for me to feed him.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZM8GQhqKz7
Waiting for me to play with him, walk him, praise him.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitMYqnMDST
...Yet I was frustrated at how needy he was being.459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlTVxeV5nZ
Despite the fact that he was always there for me. When I felt sad, he would whimper and lick my face. At the lowest points of my life, he was there when no one else was.
I should've done more for you. 459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGFh7Ny79N
I should have rushed home every day. I should have taken you out for more walks. I shouldn't have scolded you so much. I should have bought more toys for you.
I'm sorry.
So this time. 459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEnHbZJbwl
Please, don't wait for me.

My username, Char_charlie, is partly named after a dog my family has, "Charlie."459Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVIbyCDqgN
