PREFACE

Beep, beep, beep…The sounds of machines greeted me when I woke up from my slumber. I was on a gurney, not a bed…They didn't anticipate a long time…

Black…

Beep, beep, beep…

I had shot him…mercilessly shot him, without blinking…and it made me happy…brought me a kind of satisfaction…

Black…

Beep, beep, beep…

I had made Garret promise me that, if a failed in my job, he would shoot me at dawn…

Black…

Beep, beep, beep…

Three bullets in and I was running…not to save my life…just to escape… I had given up any attachment to this existence long ago…But I was shot, a bullet fired by a person dying himself…

Black…

Beep, beep, beep…

I had loved him…loved him so much that I was ready to give everything for him…but fate didn't agree with me… My happiness was snatched as brutally as ever…

Black…

Beep, beep, beep…

Not to long now, just a few more breathes…No! Life couldn't do this to me… She couldn't just leave me now… All I was asking was for a few more borrowed moments of existence… I would have that… I would have the happiness that had spent my whole life searching, but it always kept slipping from my grasp…

So close, yet never mine…
