But It Was Not Your Fault But Mine Novels & Stories

"I do feel guilty about it. If I had not arranged that meeting, you would not have been angry and you would not have had the accident. It was my fault that all of this happened. It was my fault that we lost our baby. It is my fault that—” “It does not matter whose fault it is. For all I know, we both were at fault. I should have listened and stayed instead of driving with unstable emotions." "But I did this. I was the one who caused—" "Jiev, don't you see? We could never change the past, so the past does not matter. Not anymore. And it certainly does not have anything to do with the way I feel right now.” “But you have a right to know. I hurt you. I did not mean for anything to happen, but i

"S-Something will always haunt all of us. But that doesn't mean you don't deserve all that life has to offer. Because you do. You deserve happiness. She would have wanted that for you." “ Do you think so?” He asked looking at me "I know," I confirm. "And f-for you, it was probably hard to see that what happened wasn't your fault. It becomes so hard to stop blaming yourself when what you experienced feels so real, so dependent on your actions. But some things are always going to be out of our control. So, what happened? It was Blood Moon's fault. All of it. Not yours. I know people have probably told you that before, but--"

His eyes locked with mine for a long second before he reluctantly tore them away, “When I finally gave in and came up here... I was too late.” I sat in silence as I thought over what he had said. Although I still didn’t believe that this was his fault, It was more than obvious that he had been thinking about this ever since it happened. “I’m not blaming you for this,” I stated, causing him to look at me in surprise, “And I can’t force you to think the same way but please just forget about this. I don’t want this to dwell in your head as a mistake. This wasn’t your fault, this was an accident that you handled fantastically and I can’t thank you enough for that.”

"I clearly failed. I failed to protect you." "Don't you dare blame yourself for that! It was my fault I took that risk. You put those guards outside the house to keep me safe. But it was me who didn't listen to them. So whose fault is it? Me. So stop torturing yourself for the thing you didn't do, again."

"I am. Well, as much as I can be without you guys." "We're here to stay, Alya. I'm not leaving this place without you." There was no way I could. "You shouldn't have been here in the first place." Everything happened because of me. "It's my fault. It's all my fault." Tears welled up in my eyes again. "I'm sorry. If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have left. None of this would've happened. You would've been at home with us. With Jay and ou-"

“Because, I don’t want to ride with you! I’m fucking mad at you, so have a fucking guard drive me home!” He shrugged. “Well, I don’t recall doing anything. Why would you possibly be mad at me?” That did it. His words made my blood boil. I crossed the distance between us. “You don’t remember shamelessly blabbing your mouth and lying in there? You don’t remember what you did? This entire mess… all of it is literally your fault, and then you’re trying to be cool with me? You helping me afterward doesn't change the fact that it’s all your fault, and I’m entitled to you taking responsibility, because it’s your fault.”

“And that's the reason why you're still in this mess. If this doesn't work out for you, just know it’s your fault.” He walked off.

" Archana it is not your fault it was no one's fault. It was an accident . You are not even present in that spot. Then how can it be your fault?" "Exactly!!! I must be present at your spot, then the things did not happen to you. It was completely my fault" she said, her voice was filled with pain. "Archana does not act like an idiot. You know it was never your fault. I know Dad was angry with you in the beginning but he understood that it was not your fault. So, please stop acting like a guilty person, when you are not," I said to her. After a few moments of pause, I said again " You are coming to my birthday and that is final."

She seemed calmer than Ava, Layla, and I both, “Don't worry about it” “This is all my fault, isn't it? If I hadn't done what I did, this would have never happened to anyone. It would never have happened to me- to us” I sobbed through choked sentences, knowing that all those voices in my head wouldn't stop telling me it was my fault, that I deserved this. They weren't wrong though. I did deserve this. Everyone else who ended up in this mess, I did it too. “We will find a way” Ava chirped in.

“You would… you would give up… all your…” He rubbed one hand over his face. “What other alternative do I have? Watch you get dragged through the mud?” He shook his head and looked off in the distance. “If I hadn’t been so fucking stupid…” “It’s my fault,” I whispered. He laughed once, short and bitter. “No, it was all me, and we both know it. I let my dick do my thinking for me, and this is what – ” “No,” I choked out. “I mean… if you give in to them… then it’s my fault.”
