A flood of emotions hit Adam the instant the knife broke his skin. Love, lust, pain, regret, and then, nothing. He opened his eyes and was in a cloudy white room. A bright light was visible just in front of him. This is it. This is the end. Suddenly Ema appeared in front of him. She had a long white dress on. Her long hair, waving perfectly over her shoulder. 'Adam.' She said. Her voice a soft whisper. 'Why? Why did you do this?' She said, with concern in her voice. 'To be with you.' He stated clearly. 'No.' She squeezed his hand. 'It's not your time yet.' She inhaled deeply, and let go of his hand. 'Goodbye Adam. Remember me. I will always love you.' And with that. She slowly faded away. 'No. No. No! Ema! No! Come back! No! No! Ema!'he screamed for her. Every muscle in his body screaming for just one more hug. Every part of his brain longing for just one more goodbye. She was gone. He knew this now. She was gone. And she was never coming back.

He turned to the tubes pumping something to his chest. He grabbed them and pulled them out of his chest. 'NO. just let me die! I just. Want. To. Die.' He sobbed. 'Ema! Ema please come back!' Adam closed his year filled eyes. 'Just let me die.' He whispered. 'Please.'
