I tried my best to get back in the race properly but I just couldn't. I saw that Freya wasn't doing so well so I decided to stay behind her no matter what. Around the middle of the round she got in third place and I lost all my worries but little did I know that something had happened to my car and it was leaking fuel. I tried my best to keep up with the other racers but I couldn't. The finish line was close but all of the others had already passed it except for me and one more person. I knew it was the end so I didn't even try to speed up anymore. This was my faith. I was condemned to death. When I finally reached the finish line I saw Freya crying in George's arms; she already knew I lost. My mind got flooded with thousands of memories of my life, a life that was coming to an end. The memory of me telling Freya that I love her was the most important to me and I couldn't let go of it.If I really were to die then, at least I had that memory engraved on my brain forever; at least I knew I wasn't a coward and I did  confess what I really felt.
I had given two hours to bid goodbyes to all of my significant others - Freya and Blake. I parked my car far away from the others and even before I could close the door behind me Freya had already dragged me in her arms and held me tighter than ever. She knew, I knew, that it was our last ever moment. She kept me like that for some good minutes until Blake pulled her away from me so he could take her place. I couldn't even imagine what was going through his mind right then. He was about to loose the only friend that he ever had. The two hours with them flew away like minutes and the next thing I knew was that two huge men were taking me away from my friends and throwing me into the back of a black van. I knew exactly what was happening. They were boss' people and they were taking me to his house. I was going to be kept there until the next day, Sunday.
"We have to do something about this!" I heard Freya screaming as they were taking me away from her. Forever.
