"If we're ever reborn, I hope in my next life. . ."

It's been a year.

Hans is still alive, but the doctors said he will probably die in a month.

Anna and Kristoff are living happily with their daughter Adeline.

Everyone is fine. . .
Except me.

Ever since Hans was diagnosed with lung cancer, I didn't know what to do! There is no medicine- let alone a cure for the cancer, and the doctors said that all we can do is wait until the inevitable takes place.

For about 3 weeks, I've been suffering from insomnia, waiting for the moment, the day, the exact time that a doctor would come knocking on my door and say, "I'm sorry." I knew that one of these days, I'll open my bedroom door in the middle of the night, tired and half awake to find a doctor standing there, out of breath from running here at such a late hour and just say it. "He's dead."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's late. Or should I say early? It's about 2:30 in the morning and again, I haven't slept. I sat outside on my balcony reading a book called The Story of Evil. The ending was so sad. The book is mainly about theses twins. One named Rin and the other is Len (Rin is a girl, Len is a boy.)

When they were young, they were inseparable, but their parents separated them. Rin became the queen when she was 14 and without her brother, she turned vile and wicked. She would destroy anyone who was in her path and left her people in poverty. All the riches in the world is what she had claimed.

Len on the other hand, spent his life preparing to be a servant of the young queen. Promising to do whatever it takes to keep her happy and to give her what she desires. I will sin, I will kill, I will sacrifice my all.

Finally after so many years of waiting, Len is ready to be the servant of evil. He arrives at the castle and they are reunited.

The towns people began to grow angry after a sudden death of a young girl, Miku, who has fallen in love with the prince from across the sea. An army of thousands of people led by the red lady defeated the evil queens army. Once they fell the countrymen surrounded the court, the servants ran away as time was running short. Quickly, Rin and Len switched clothes, certain that no one would see the difference (cause, twins!)

Rin, disguised as a fugitive, ran away.
Len, disguised as the evil queen, stayed and let the army capture him. They locked the queen in the dungeon until the next day at three o' clock.
She was to be punished at three o' clock, when the church bells resounded a tock. The person who was once royalty was bored in jail with no loyalty.

The time eventually came when she was to be beheaded. Without looking into the faces of the crowd, she said aloud, "oh, it's tea time!" And then slash! Down came the guillotine.

In the crowd of relieved citizens stood Rin. She has just watched her twin brother get beheaded!

A few days later, Rin is standing by the ocean. In a town by a port looking out onto the sea, alone on the sand stands a girl crying and a custom persist, today it still exists, traditions from long long ago. Write down a wish on a piece of parchment then place it in a bottle. If you let it flow, then someday it will grow and your hearts desire will be real!

Rin tossed the bottle into the water and watched it flow away into the sunset as tears streamed down her face. Little did she know, a girl with hair as white as snow creeping up behind her with a knife. The daughter of white.

If we're ever reborn I hope in my next life...

Then I closed the book. I sighed deeply.

"If we're ever reborn I hope in my next life. . ." I sang softly.
