with precise shots. She truly is a force to be reckoned with. And then, I see Joseph heading towards her, gun in hand. I
don’t even think before my instincts take over and I run
towards her, knocking her away and taking the bullet
intended for her.
Pain sears through my chest as I collapse to the ground,
gasping for air. Emma’s screams echo in my ears as I try to
stay conscious. Everything becomes hazy as I see her
running over to me, trying to stop the bleeding. “Vince, no.
Please don’t leave me,” she cries, tears streaming down her
face. But I know I can’t fight this anymore. My time is up.
“I love you, Emma. Always remember that,” I whisper
before everything fades to black. But I know that even in
death, my love for her will live on forever, in this life and
the next.
