The diary ended here. A woman in white sobbed. Tears flooded the 1497 pages of this book entitled My Love Accounts. The sound of a flat line filled the air, a doctor ran in. He pronounced the man in the bed dead. The white woman went home. She took a knife. Two spirits joined and rose up to heaven.
