Dead or Alive

Chapter 34: Rogelio

I stared at her.

She's giving up. She's going to let herself die. She can't. I can't allow this to happen.

I start swimming faster and faster, down towards her. I'm losing my breath. But no; I won't stop. I don't care. I have to get to her.

I've made it! I take in her image. Her face looks pale and her long curls are now just waving slowly around her face, just framing her. The blood that was coming out of her body, gave her a haunting look. She doesn't have her seat belt on. I don't see why she didn't swim out.

I stop delaying and grab her from her waist. Right when we were about to get out, her body yanked itself  back. I try pulling her again, but the same thing happens.

I finally see it. The rope. It's tied on her leg. No wonder. I quickly take out my pocket knife and cut the rope. I grab her once again and pull her out of the car. I start swimming up but I start slowing down once I could see the surface.

I feel myself start to lose strength and my vision is starting to get blurry. No!  This can't happen!  I have to make it!  I have to!

But I don't get to decide. I already have hold of Minica by three fingers and I can feel myself sink down. I was so close to making it but I didn't.  I know I'm going to die so might as well stop wasting time.

I pulled Minica close to me and looked at her face. I felt terrible. I won't ever be able to forgive myself. If it wasn't for me she wouldn't be in this situation. If I never agreed, she wouldn't even know me. This is all my fault.

I hug her close to me.

She's going to die at the age of 13. Me at the age of 14. We're both very young. She's killed a person and so have I. We're so young and all of this happened because of me. I love Minica, but not that much. I guess cause we're still kids. But I did feel something stronger for her. I don't know if its love, though. Oh well, it doesn't matter cause we're both going to die.

I close my eyes and feel Minica's cold skin. I think about my life and everyone in it. There's so many things I wish I could change, but I can't and its all my fault.

I'm dying.
