Babysitting Elsa

There's a saying which goes like this; "Sometimes, you have to hurt the ones you love in order to save them."
I never truly understood those words until one day, I did. That was the day I was diagnosed with blood cancer at just sixteen years old. The scariest thing to me back then wasn't even the fact that I was probably going to die, It was the thought of the amount of grief and sadness my family and friends were going to face if I eventually passed. I was scared. I was scared that my suffering was going to cause the people that I loved pain. And so what did I do? I ran. I ran away like the coward I was.

But, before I disappeared, I made sure that I made the one person I couldn't live without hate my very existence. Before I disappeared, I did something that broke me, but would've eventually saved my ex.

Before I disappeared, I silenced the melody in Tyler's heart.

My name is Lyra Davis, and this is my story.
