NATALIE
I crossed my legs and sat on my bed. I put the medicine bag in front of me. I did what Sophie said tonight. I listened to my inner voice. I put two of the medicine in a small white container and swallowed with the warm water next to the night lamp. Then I looked around. I raised my head to the ceiling. Could everything be different? I wonder if everything would change if I tried to love Him again. My mother would still be here, at home, with us.
I took out the rest of the medicine in the small box and put it close to my mouth. Yeah.
I can take them all at once.
I filled my mouth with the pills and took the water off my head.
Life is like dominoes. Falling repeats each other. Nothing good has happened since that night. I opened another medicine box from inside the bag. There were moments when I watched some movies as a child that I didn't understand. The protagonist of the film sacrificed himself to prevent the tragedy. Some entered the burning building, others jumped in front of the gun. They sacrificed their lives to save the lives of others and to end the tragedy. At the end of the film, everyone remembered them as heroes.
If I was the cause of everything ... If I was the cause of the tragedy that happened ... Then I would have sacrificed myself to prevent future tragedies. If Paul was doing this to get revenge on me, then it would be pointless to do anything if I was not around anymore. I had to throw myself into a burning building and stay in front of a gun before anything happened to the next member of my family.
Cold sweat was slowly taking over my body. I lay down on the bed and closed my eyes. I hope... I am also remembered as a hero.
