Prologue
Dearest Margaret,
Endings.
Everything has one: World War One, World War Two, the 'unsinkable' Titanic, even the Berlin Wall met its end eventually.
Most of those endings were positive endings that made many people look forward to the bright future ahead of them, but that's not the point. The point is that everything you think will last ends and dies and falls. Good times have an end, and thankfully so do the bad.
I didn't believe that my life would ever end completely. Like all lives, mine has constant turns, bumps and things that go wrong but with the excitement and happiness that comes along with it, I did not think that it would ever end - who would? Exactly.
My life hasn't ended – not yet. It won't end for a long, long time. The best part of my life, however…
Sometimes it scares me that although I am only young my real, my true life died a long time ago with many of the people that I have loved being left behind just like litter on the side of the road; you can acknowledge that it is there, but usually you do not do anything about it and go about your life the best that you can. Usually the litter does not change anything significant in life, so maybe I should not compare my own experiences with mere rubbish. It was anything but.
However, for some people this story isn't about an end. More like… the start of a new chapter.
Stories that are labelled as fiction may have no right to that title. Lots of the stories that we are told could be true; myths and legends could have been everyday life for some people. They could have.
Sometimes it annoys me how we will never know the true answers to these myths.
My worse fear is sacrifice: The kind of sacrifice that you would make in a single heartbeat, not knowing if you would live until the next one.
That kind of decision scares me – knowing that you love someone so much; you would die just so that they can live. What about the sacrifices where you would live so that they can die? Would you do that? I know that I couldn't. Some of us will never have to make that decision but if you do, if you have done, you will understand what I am talking about.
If someone, someone that you would go to the ends of the earth for, someone that you gave your heart to, made you promise that you would live out the rest of your life in happiness without them, could you ever be happy again?
This story is about how I found my happiness, even after the light of my life was gone. Something that in time, I hope that you do too.
We're so proud of you and sorry that we can never be there to tell you in person.
All my love…
AN:
This story may not necessarily be a happy one. However, this story will have its ups and downs, its happiness and its heartbreak. I can't promise that all of you will like it, but I can promise that for those who do, it's going to be one hell of a journey!
I also would like to quickly add that although I have read almost all of the Narnia series written by C.S Lewis, this story will be based off the movies.
ONLY DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own Narnia or any of C.S Lewis' inventions.
Thank You for reading and I hope you enjoy 'A Fine Line'!
