In a blink, I’m now staring at the sky. I felt the dagger turned into ashes and was blown away by the wind. I noticed how quite it was.

Someone is calling me. My head turned to see who it is. Just turning my head hurt so much. Andrei had me into his hands. 

“Ela! Why did you?” He’s crying. It broke me to see him like this. I want to wipe his tears. I want to make him smile.

I smiled faintly. I want to say that it’s okay but it was so hard to breathe now. “Save you… its heart.. inside me.. Exchange of hearts.”

“What are you talking about, Ela?” he asked in confusion.

“Sorry…. keeping that secret…” I managed.

“Please stay with me, Annie.” He insists between his cries. He tighten his arms around. I liked how he called me with that name again.

I couldn’t feel my body anymore but I really tried to ruffle his hair one more time. I closed my eyes and let my lifeless hand fall.
