"Lilly! Lilly!"
I hear someone calling my name. I've heard this voice before. I never thought I'd hear it again.
"Lilly! Stop, please! Lilly!"
There it is again. But no, it couldn't be, could it?
"Gah!" *thump* "Argh … ARRRRGGGGHHHH!"
No, that sound, there's only one way. He came back for me, but he did himself in.
Akira saw me turning, but she told me we had to get going. She knew our parents would want to see both of us, that they would never let her leave me behind. I didn't care. He came to get me, now I need to go back and get him.
An ambulance comes. They're talking about how some kid had a heart attack. They think he's down and out. I wish I had heard him sooner. I wish I had turned back when I first heard him calling out to me.
There was nothing I could do but go back to Akira and follow her through the terminal onto our plane. I hope my family will understand why I have to go back, why I can't be with them.
