The Drifter's Memoir of a Second Life
That guilt must have been eating him alive, denying him peace or sleep until he eventually reincarnated.
He must have done his best to make amends too, only for me to tell him now that it was all a pitiful joke.
Susie had taken the life that his biological sister had given her, squandering it and dying to her own whims.
And he had hurt his own biological sister, who was innocent all along, for such a worthless person.
The world he had built for himself fell apart in an instant, while I remained completely unaffected as I watched him break.
"So, do you still think your regret was worth a thing?" I asked icily and turned to leave.
