Tears streamed down my face. The grains in the asphalt dug into my knees. I gripped my head and rocked back and forth. She lay in front of me, her lifeless eyes staring past me.
With my shaking hand I picked up hers and felt for a pulse. A small gasp escaped from me as I dropped her hand. I gritted my teeth as pain tore through my body and into my core.
I took one last look at my fiancé before I felt the officer’s hand on my shoulder. I turned around and saw the car—my car—and the bloodstain on its bumper. It had been the tool that had taken the life of the only person on this planet that I had ever learned to love.
Since then, I’ve learned one thing: with every breath there is a dying wish.
