Dear Elias, (Completed) ✔

Goodbye forever

Dear Elias,

This is the last letter you'll be reading from me.

The challenge I've wrote about in previous letters was one I took with your father. Yes, I know, crazy. Basically it was that I had to sell an amount of illegal drugs your father provided me with in a limited amount of days. If I did, I'd get enough money to help out my father, but if I couldn't, I'd have to pay him a few thousand dollars.

But there was a twist.

If I succeeded I'd have to move away with my father and never talk to you again. I would have to stay away from you. And if I didn't then I was permitted to see you until my father gets on his feet again.

Right now I'm sitting beside you on a chair on the right side of your hospital bed, writing to you my last letter. A nurse came in a while ago and gave me your treatment fees because I told her I was the relative of your responsible for your fees.

The reason I couldn't go through with the challenge was because of what happened to you. You're in the hospital right now being treated for being a drug addict. I saw what happened half an hour ago. It was horrible.

You were fighting with the nurses while shaking your head furiously. Like there was something on your face you were trying to remove by shaking your head sharply. I'm surprised you didn't get whiplash.

"Get rid of it" you cried desperately. "One minute I'm hot, the next minute I'm cold" " just one last joint"

It was heart breaking. You ended up falling asleep and here we are now. I'm sorry this is happening.

Back to the challenge, I couldn't sell those horrible monsterouse items seeing as things like this can happen to others. I'd rather lose everything then be the reason someone out there is suffering.

And one last thing, I couldn't stand the idea of leaving you forever. I'm selfish like that. But now I'm left with no choice but to leave.

The money I owe your dad is the money I'm using to pay your fees. I've worked for weeks, months even trying to earn this amount and now that I have, I'm leaving it here for you to be treated.

Elias, no matter how good or bad you've treated me, I have became attached to. I love and care for you. This is goodbye. I could promise you you'll never hear from me again.

I'm sorry if my writing is a bit hard to read, it's tearing me apart writing this to you. Elias, you need to get better. If not for me then for your sister. Please. Don't let my efforts go to waste. Though I won't be around, you'll always be in my heart, no matter how cliche it sounds.

I have to leave now before the paper gets soggy from my tears, but I just need to write one last thing.

Elias, I loved you. I truly did.

Best of luck ~ the niave girl who loved you deeply ~ Maria.
