(A/N: My Honors English teacher had us do daily tone competitions for a week while learning about it. And since 99.9% of my thoughts are Fringe-related, these are what happened. They're short and there's only a few. One of which I've posted separately as a oneshot. But keep an open mind?)
Doubtful
Before he even speaks, I know he's lying.
His hesitation was the first thing I saw.
The fact that his hands were shaking didn't help.
But the words "I'm sorry" never cut it, even if they are sincere.
It's the next thing he says that makes my stomach turn and sets off a million questions in my head.
"This was never going to work," he whispers.
And that much is true, failure was always a possibility.
But he would've kept trying. We could've kept trying.
But then he's gone, and I am left to question everything.
