Preference:

I thought that I was safe; from danger, from death, from everything. I wasn't. I knew that if I would've listened to my parents, I wouldn't be here right now. Everything, life, love, past, future, everything was spinning around me. I couldn't move. I couldn't speak. I could only get weaker by the second. I was scared, and I didn't know what to do. All I knew was that my family and my love were safe., and that's all that mattered.
