Chapter 17
"How could this happen! Why!! She should have stayed with me! I wanted her to stay!! I didn't tell her! I was so stupid..." Michael was sobbing. I knew I couldn't stand to be away from her, I just wanted to give her space... and now she's gone! I should've asked her, I just should've something! It's my fault, If only... Michael just sat down and stopped thinking. He almost couldn't breath. All he could do was sleep so he didn't have to think about the pain. He wanted his life to finish.
The phone was ringing and finally Michael answered it, for the first time in months.
"Hello?"
"Michael, I know this is a hard time for you but there is something we have to talk about... but you must understand that if this gets out it could kill someone that means a lot to you." It was the sound of Lara's father on the phone, and Michael was wondering why he sounded so calm after he just got news of her chartered plane crash. Michael shuddered at the thought.
"I've already lost someone that means a lot to me, Sir Croft." Michael said, getting depressed understanding the true meaning of the words he just said.
"Exactly."
Chapter 18
Moving was not an option, only laying still. The pain went from the calves to the hips through the stomach towards both arms. It was death laughing at its effect. She felt like her whole body had been beaten and there was a whole in her stomach. I bet my stomach has already started eating itself. Wouldn't be surprised a bit with this pain. I just have to find some way to be able to get home. Or stay alive. Everything ached, even her heart. She had never been through anything of the sort, but that was not the point. She felt alive. Kind of contradicting.... feeling like I've died and come back to life and yet I'm so alive and aware at the moment. I feel like my eyes have really opened. Then, realizing the irony, she opened her eyes to find herself in a village. Had she really seen someone before or had she just kept carrying herself half asleep? She fought to stay conscious and all she did was remember memories. Maybe I'm dieing. She remembered all the things her father taught her when she was a little girl. She remembered all the times she and her mother talked... realizing they had nothing in common. She remember all her vacations. She remembered Winston's home and Tibet. She remembered Greece, with her best friends from childhood. All the boys that she got along better with.
