*Present day*
Narrators pov :
Lani sat still on her bed. She had been reading his message for 10 minutes now. Her body shaking and her voice gone. Her mind both shocked and confused.....what does she text back?
She gently tapped the phone screen allowing the keyboard to pop up from the bottom. Slowly with shaky hands, she began to type.
Felix. Hi. I'm so sorry for everything I did. I didn't mean to get personal and I understand if you hate me but please know I am sorry and even if you don't love me anymore, I hope we can still be friends.
She sat staring at the message, her thumb hovering over the send button. "fuck it" she sighed. She pressed her thumb down and a little sound came from her phone. It was sent. There was no going back now.

Lani's pov :
I sit on the cold ground, tears falling like rivers down my face. My mascara smudged and running slowly down my cheaks. My knees cut and bruised from where I dropped suddenly onto the concrete. How could I say that? How could I do that to him.
Fuck this.
I stand and begin running. Rain drops slowly begin to fall from the sky. I run for about 2 miles before arriving at my destination. I catch my breath leaning against a pole. It's time. I have nobody.
I duck under the metal barrier and onto the train tracks. A red light flashing indicating me to move. But I don't. I stay put. As the honking noise of the train gets closer, I close my eyes and spread out my hands. The rain getting heavy and the sound of a train whistle getting louder. I take a deep breath and then a hard thing bumps into me.
But I wasn't the train. I was sent tumbling down a hill only to stop as the ground became flat. I look up to see the train flying by at an enormous speed. I sigh. What the fuck was that? I ask myself. " Lani....." I hear a familiar voice behind me. I sigh and turn, emotionlessly.
"yes Chris?"
