I couldn't handle it anymore. I peered over the short wall at the edge of the building, looking down to the rushing street 50 stories below. I don't want to live anymore. I'm so tired of fighting this. I closed my eyes and tilted my head up towards the sky, taking in one last breath of fresh air. I let it out shakily as I placed both hands flat on the wall. My brothers sad face flashed behind my closed eyes and I felt tears start to build up in the corners.
"Forgive me Roman," I whispered quietly as I hoisted myself up onto the wall.
I spread my arms out to keep my balance as I looked up at the sky, refusing to look down to where I would soon be splattered on the pavement.
This world had had enough of the killer Evelynn Greene.
I lifted one foot, ready to step off of the wall.
And then I heard his voice, the voice that changed every single thing about my life.
"It gets better you know," he had said. If only he knew how wrong he was. If only I hadn't listened to him. If only I had jumped, maybe I wouldn't have killed him. Maybe I wouldn't have fallen in love.
