Prologue:
It was days since I had seen the light of day. Depression had taken over me like the dark shroud of night. How could I have gotten myself into this? I asked myself over and over again…how could you love someone so much…and let them go? How could I just walk away from the love of my life? These were questions that I would ponder alone…in my own little world…far away from others.
I finally emerged from the hell that I had put myself through.
I decided I would take a stroll along the beach and just take some time
to breathe in the fresh air and view the lovely scenery. The
cool waters seemed so calm…so refreshing. I longed to feel the waves
crash over me…so, I walked out into the water. I never even noticed
the undertoe…until it was too late. All that I could remember was
the feeling like something was pulling me under…and then complete darkness…
Chapter 1
Sirens. Flashing lights. Crowds of people. One set of blue eyes.
These are things I vaguely remember. I was in shock…and falling in and out of consciousness.
"She is starting to come around. Thank God." an angelic voice remarked. "Please tell me that we got to her in time. She won't suffer any long term damage will she?"
"We will take her to the hospital for observations. You can follow us down. The doctors will take a look at her and we are sure they will release her tomorrow." said one of the EMS Techs.
The next thing I remember was being put into the ambulance…and then being rushed into the emergency room of the local hospital. After being examined by the doctors…they moved me up to a room to rest. I had no family in the area…so it was not possible for me to go home right away. I don't really remember what happened to me, all I remember is the taste of salt water in my mouth…and then not being able to breath. It was one of the most horrifying moments in my life. What had I done? Was it a subconscious way a trying to kill myself? To put me out of the misery I had caused myself?
I had no one…no one at all. Or did I? Those eyes…those wonderful
blue eyes. *I thought to myself as I dosed off for a peaceful nap.
