Novel & Cerita I'm Thinking Of Ending Things Explained

Alex asked. I sighed. “I can’t watch incomplete series. I have this weird thing about sad endings, so I need to know how it ends to watch it.” Alex turned his eyes at me. “Is that even real?” I nodded. “Yes, I know Titanic has a sad ending so never watched it. Even The fault in our stars. If I know the ending is sad, I can’t watch it.” “So this ending is happy?” “It’s not complete yet.” “So why are we watching it?”

He simply smiled with a look of relief. The apple rolled to the ground, picking up dirt. From the start, Zach had been provoking Jessica on purpose. I looked at the blood spreading on the ground and at Zach's collapsed body, then at the frail and blind Jessica. I understood it all. This was Zach seeking redemption using Jessica. At the very end, Zach seemed to see me. His eyes were pleading. "Annie, now that I did this, will this make you feel any better?" As my own body faded, I realized this might be the last thing I would ever say. I looked right at him and gave a cold, cruel smile.

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about my life. Nathan is becoming more and more greedy, and I fear that one day he won’t let me go. So I decided to take the first step and tell him that I wanted to end this relationship. I want to be free and reorganize my life.

“Everything ends.” I paced the room thinking carefully. Then all of a sudden, something came to mind and I let it out. “I have to get rid of her.”

I wanted to ask what these decades meant. Halfway through, I stopped. The answer was already before me. Asking again would only invite self-humiliation. I started laughing and couldn't stop, tears welling in my eyes and rolling down again. They hit the floor, as if they could pierce through the floor... Just like how the sorrow had pierced through my heart. My eyes were red as I smashed the entire wall of photos. Frames shattered and glass fragments sprayed everywhere, just like how my heart shattered along with them.

Some endings don’t need words. They just need someone to notice.

But I turn to him anyway. “I’m not reacting,” I say. “I’m finishing it.” His expression tightens. “Finishing what?” “The collapse,” I answer. Silence. Because he understands what that means. Because the figure— The void— They already told us. This is the end. The final stage. And if I can change this— If I can change what happens here— Then maybe— Just maybe— I can change everything that leads to it. “That’s not something you can just ‘finish,’” he says.

I took a deep breath, stepped back, and finished it. “And this relationship,whatever it is….it ends today, Let’s see whose life she ruins first “

The wind carried the distant hum of traffic. Neither of us spoke for several minutes. Eventually he broke the silence. "Do you ever think about what happens after?" "After what?" "The contract." I looked at him. "I try not to." "Why?" "Because thinking about endings ruins beginnings." He nodded slowly. "I've spent my whole life preparing for endings." "I know." "I don't think I've ever prepared for something to stay." I didn't know what to say. So instead... I stepped closer. Our shoulders brushed. Neither of us moved away.

While Damien was out, I went to a small store on the outskirts of town and purchased two large bags of charcoal. The shopkeeper, a kindly old man, reminded me, "Miss, remember to open the windows for ventilation if you're using charcoal to keep warm." I smiled faintly and said nothing. Once Ricky's funeral was over, I planned to end my life by burning charcoal and leave this world for good. Just as I hid the bags of charcoal under the bed, I blacked out. When I came to, all I saw was the stark white ceiling of a hospital room. Damien sat at my bedside, gripping my hand tightly. His eyes were filled with despair and sorrow.
