A/N This is my sequel to Dora Sanchez. It will be hard to gage an opinion from the openeing prologue I know it is very short, and to compensate for this I will post the next chapter very soon. Thanks for reading and I hope you like it.
Prologue
My mother once told me how, when faced with death, she had recorded her life story up to that point to focus it better in her mind. She had nothing better to do with the three hours she thought were her last. So why not record one's life story so that even a small piece of you will live on once your body has passed away? I suppose it must help to write it down, it releases it, so you no longer have to think about it, or remember it.
I'm not exactly faced with death, more a broken heart, and my mind is in pieces. I can't understand what happened, or what I did to deserve it. It's unbelievable and I can no more accept it then I can believe it. And acceptance that it has happened is surely the first step to understanding. Or is it the other way round?
Well, whatever way it goes, I have to understand. And that is why I have decided to write it down, every single detail, that way I'll know why and how.
I'm sitting by the docks, overshadowed by the Commodore's mansion that looks out on the sharp rocks below. My legs are swinging against the stone, thudding and bouncing off, as I stare into that horizon. The sun is close to setting, its bright light glinting of the crystalline waters as my words flicker across the page.
I'm far from death, unless I suddenly decide to throw myself from this cliff. And I do not have the courage for such an act. I am afraid I am rather a coward, if I was braver, perhaps I would still be with Dora, I'd still be inside that towering mansion. Perhaps if I was braver, Jack would still be alive.
If is a horrible word, it just shows how powerless one is to change something. If I had done that or if I had done this…No! There is no point wondering what could have happened, I must write down what did, and pray that it will all work out in the end.
So this is what happened, from start to finish.
