The Kidney That Never Came
"Aaron, please—I'm begging you. Stella's gone. I've already lost my baby, I can't lose you too! Caleb lied to me, I swear—if I could trade places with her, I would! Just give me one more chance. For Stella."
I stood there frozen, empty. Nothing showed on the outside, but inside? I was bleeding out, torn to shreds.
Ten years.
I remembered it all—every laugh, every kiss, every second we thought we had forever.
Our first meeting. Dropping to one knee. The day Stella came into this world, her tiny hand wrapped in ours.
They were my whole universe.
And Kylie? She crushed it with her own hands.
The deeper the love, the sharper the wreckage.
