Beyond Reach
The cold water rushed into my nose and ears, and the freezing sensation enveloped me.
As my consciousness started to fade, the distant screams of bystanders seemed to drift away.
Through the dark water, it felt as if I had traveled across time and space, arriving in a place completely different from the real world.
After three thousand five hundred and forty-five days, I finally saw her again.
With red eyes, I watched as Emma gently cared for a little girl, and I called out softly, "Emma, I’ve come to find you."
But she did not seem to hear me, taking the little girl’s hand and preparing to leave.
