Life: I know I am not easy or filled with roses, but when times get hard, I gave you peace. Some people find it and hold me tightly, while others throw me away. Those who don’t find it, it’s their fault. You humans only remember the hard times I have with you, but you don’t remember the good times.
"Why didn’t you talk things out with your dad?"
"Why didn’t you try to enjoy me?"
"There were times I was filled with happiness. I was your life."
"Why did you hold yourself back from moving on?"
"You did not try; you thought to yourself that you had done enough, but that was not the case. I was hard because you were capable."
"That’s enough. Now, what do you think of me?"
Alara: You are right; humans are selfish. You are right. In this life, I tried everything that I didn’t do before. I talked things out with Alara’s father, tried to move on, opened my café without connections, built close relationships, and, most importantly, found Aezhar. In this life, I want to hold you as tightly as possible because I have too much to lose.
Life: But in this life, I am throwing you away just like you did. (Suddenly, life’s appearance changes from beautiful to dangerous.)
"Do you remember what day it is today? August 20th—the day you threw me away. Do you want to know why I chose Alara’s soul to replace you? You are both alike. Now, you have to die because destiny needs to follow the story. At your funeral, I hope you remember that you are in a novel. From today on, you have 7 days to live. After that, on August 20th, the female lead must follow her destiny. You have to follow yours before that."
"That’s the cost of your suicide."
