Olivia still felt a little light-headed. She only remembered that John made her kneel on the cold rock because of Dorothy.
She thought that she could hold on until the morning, but it was pouring at the time. So, her body began to sway, her lungs tightened and she kept spitting out blood from her mouth.
After a certain period of time, she knew that she could not take it anymore, so she passed out right there and then.
She thought that she would die.
Just before she passed out, she thought to herself, perhaps dying is alright. That way, she could truly be free.
She could still dream that John still loved her. She would immerse herself in that dream and pretend like nothing ever happened over the past two years.
However, she did not die. She was awake.
In fact, the first person that she saw was John. When she looked into those indifferent eyes of his, she realized that this was not a dream.
The reality was cruel indeed.
She could see John speak, but she could not quite hear him.
