"You could die at any moment."615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEOCOQ0uVO
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.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNpvofW6XE
Without warning, an incredible impact from behind.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡed5611Wv1S
A deafening screech.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzCRxi4ZtE
Glass shattering.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAE1iTvYWbM
Lights flashing.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmz8XRfOjM
615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWNQ9iXSK2
615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgX8w2AIGx
Then, there was stillness. A distant beeping of hazard warning lights going off.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYI1h53sSmu
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?615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOByrJXZVt
It always is. 615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5j45KqkEj
When I close my eyes, I'll wake up on my bed. 615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbduQdW2WLN
Yeah. It must be. 615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvm1LIwhAA
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? 615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2SDARApkd
I muttered a string of curse words under my breath. I cursed them and their family.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfz0NtMgsw
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBp8YGsfvq
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. 615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwzeTrx0al
Not a good sign.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMXB4ymPoW
Fear started growing within me.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvvYvKs8La
When are the police coming?615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVmhYJvLNv
Is this really the end?615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeDZEzHK9w
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.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9rZyJ7zQE
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.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ApiaVCB3W

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. 615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wyQXFDTVg
Will anyone else care if I'm gone?615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVR9HfmRISx
At the end of the day, I never achieved anything. I came into the world with nothing, and I will leave with nothing.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0v6Z1oRyF
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.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKR2uLxUDso
...What would he do without me? Would he be taken back to a shelter? Or to my parents? 615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gAr3Ikkge
Would he even be found?615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfusW0L7eTc
It's funny that I would start caring as my life ends.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBiasCb734
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. 615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVSsgdfYX7
Sometimes, he would be limping when I came back from work, but I pretended I didn't notice.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsRyVJxoEO
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. 615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDhZUbivzh
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.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfSOOE6ENW
615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBq7jdKV1N
He was always waiting.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WTSDK5NPW
Waiting for me to come home.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACP2OaeAaO
Waiting for me to feed him.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uZuH28n9E
Waiting for me to play with him, walk him, praise him.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEzAFOjvO0
...Yet I was frustrated at how needy he was being.615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2q48o7J6aZ
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. 615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGBIyAICkR
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. 615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡww6Z2imyZn
Please, don't wait for me.

My username, Char_charlie, is partly named after a dog my family has, "Charlie."615Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4X2NmEUtKj
