I took a step closer. “Emma still believes in you.”

At the mention of her name, Mia flinched.

“She’s waiting for you,” I continued. “Waiting for you to let her in. And if you do, things can change. You can change.”

Her breath hitched, but she shook her head furiously. “It’s too late.”

I met her gaze, unwavering. “It’s never too late.”

Silence stretched between us. A heavy, fragile silence.

I could see the war happening behind her eyes—the fight between the guilt that had chained her for so long and the sliver of hope she was too afraid to grasp.

For a moment, I thought she would turn away.

But then—

Her grip on the bottle loosened.

And it slipped from her fingers, landing on the grass with a dull thud.

A shaky breath escaped her lips, and for the first time, her shoulders sagged—like she had been holding the weight of the world, and finally, she was ready to set it down.

I reached out, my hand trembling. “Come home, Mia.”

She stood there, frozen in place, every muscle in her body woun

  • Save Me   The Final Choice

    Emma was sitting alone on the porch when I found her. The evening sun bathed her in a golden glow, making her look so peaceful, so innocent. A slight breeze ruffled her hair as she absentmindedly traced circles on the wooden railing.She had no idea what was coming.I hesitated, watching her for a moment before gathering the courage to step forward. The old wooden steps creaked under my weight as I lowered myself onto the porch beside her.She glanced at me, her expression relaxed but mildly surprised. “Oh, hey, Sandy.”I forced a small smile. “Hey.”For a while, neither of us spoke. We just sat there, listening to the distant hum of the neighbourhood—the rustling leaves, the occasional barking dog, the faint laughter of kids playing down the street. The world felt so calm, yet inside, I was a storm.I took a deep breath, breaking the silence. “Emma… have you ever had a moment where you felt like everything was slipping away? Like… no matter what you do, it’s never enough?”She furrow

    Day 3Younger Mia’s glare was sharp, full of mistrust. “Who the hell are you?”I took a slow breath, choosing my words carefully. “Someone who’s been where you are.”She scoffed. “Yeah? And where’s that?”I looked at her—at me—standing there with that same emptiness I once felt. “Lost. Angry. Pretending you don’t care when deep down, you do.”Her jaw tightened, but she didn’t walk away.I took that as a sign to keep going.“I know what it’s like to push people away,” I said softly. “To act like you don’t need anyone because needing someone means giving them the power to hurt you.”Her fingers twitched around the cigarette. “You don’t know anything about me.”“I know that Emma is the only person who hasn’t given up on you.”Younger Mia flinched.I pressed on. “She’s the one thing keeping you grounded. But if you keep shutting her out, you’ll regret it. You’ll wake up one day and realize she’s gone.” My voice cracked at the last word. “And there won’t be a way to fix it.”She swallowed

  • Save Me   Confronting the Truth

    Day 2That night, I sat on the worn-out couch in the house Apollo and I were staying in, my mind spinning. Emma’s words played over and over in my head."She was angry all the time, but she wouldn’t tell me why."Why was I angry back then?I tried to remember, but my memories felt like broken shards—sharp, scattered, painful to touch.Apollo, sitting on the armrest, watched me closely. “You okay?”I shook my head. “No. Emma sees me as someone who abandoned her. Someone who threw everything away. But I don’t remember why I became like that.”Apollo leaned forward. “Then we need to find out. You have one more day left, Mia. You need to get to the root of what led to your downfall. Otherwise, history will repeat itself.”I exhaled deeply, my breath shaky as the weight of the situation pressed down on me. “What if Emma doesn’t fall for it?” I asked, the doubt in my voice impossible to hide.Apollo looked at me with a steady gaze, his expression calm and sure. “I know you’re scared, but if

    Day 2 The next afternoon, I waited outside Emma’s school, my nerves prickling beneath my skin. Apollo stood beside me, his arms crossed as he studied the students walking out of the building.“You seem anxious,” he noted.I exhaled. “I have to be careful with what I say. If I ask the wrong questions, she’ll get suspicious.”Apollo nodded in understanding. “Just ease into it. You’re here to learn about your past—what led you to that fateful night. If you can figure out what went wrong, you might be able to change things.”Before I could respond, I spotted Emma walking toward me, her backpack slung over one shoulder.“Wow, you’re actually on time,” she said with a smirk.I chuckled. “Of course. I wouldn’t miss my first tour of town.”She glanced at Apollo. “Who’s this?”I hesitated for a split second before saying, “Oh, this is Paul—he’s my, uh, cousin. He’s visiting for a bit.”Apollo shot me an amused look but played along, offering a small wave.Emma shrugged. “Cool. Alright, let’s

    DAY 1Apollo and I sat on the living room floor, the weight of what just happened still pressing heavily on my chest. My mind raced, replaying every second of my brief interaction with Emma.I had seen her. Heard her voice.But I hadn’t told her the truth.I exhaled sharply and looked at Apollo, who studied me with patience, waiting for me to process everything.“She didn’t recognize me,” I whispered. “She looked at me like I was a stranger.”Apollo nodded. “That’s part of the deal, Mia. No one will recognize you—not as you were.”I swallowed hard. “Then how do I reach her? How do I… how do I get close to her?”Apollo leaned back against the couch, tapping his fingers against his knee in thought. “Well, let’s start with what we know. You have two days. That’s not a lot of time, but it’s enough to make an impact.”I bit my lip, my mind racing. “She’s still in school, which means she probably has a routine. If I can get close enough to her, maybe I can… I don’t know, be someone she trus
