My Fiancée Hates Me

I collapsed onto the floor.

I killed Garett...I killed Garett...I killed Garett...

I let Garett die in my first life because of my mistakes...

I was a psychological mess and had been under severe stress both mentally and physically and forgotten about it all before I died.

I did not want to remember this!

Only now can I make sense of my real memories. My instability led me to take my own life along with my child. That is probably why I did not hesitate one moment when I tried to kill myself knowing full well that I was pregnant.

I probably hated that child growing inside of me that much...

"You killed Garett and me," a grown up Erik said as he slowly approached me.

"You are not real," I said as I gripped my skirt.

He kneeled before me and placed his hand over my cheek.

The hallucination I created was so real that I could even feel heat radiating from his touch.

"Ari, I am very real..."

I jumped back slightly and began holding in my chest that felt like it wanted to pop out.
