Not Your Fault But Mine Novels & Stories

“Do not allow yourself to be foolish again.” So it was my fault…

"It's okay, it's not your fault any of this happened, you did what anyone would've done" "And you got most of the blame for it" "Yeah, but at least you're happy now, aren't you?"

She apologizes yet again. “It’s not your fault, Mother. It was never your fault. I think this time, it’s my fault. I should’ve seen this coming. I should have known this sort of thing would happen to me.” Mother clasped her hand over mine, shaking her head softly “No, no, that’s not true. It’s never your fault baby. Never your fault. How would you have known this sort of thing would happen? It was never your fault so please don’t think that way.” Mother says and I smile, albeit bitterly.

I said, regret once again seeping into my heart. "Oh no, you don't." Ruthie stuck a finger in my face. "You don't get to take the blame for this one. It's not your fault. It's not my fault. And it's not Zander's fault. It just sucks the big one that this had to happen now." "When would be a good time, Ruthie?" She let loose a morose laugh. "Yeah, never. Listen, I'm just whining. A girl's gotta complain sometimes."

“I’m not… I didn’t…” “You didn’t what?” “It wasn’t my fault. I didn’t mean for them to die.”

"You didn't know. You didn't know what was going to happen. Please don't blame yourself. It's not your fault. It's mine. It's my fault. If I had stayed at home and not went anywhere, maybe this wouldn't have happened." "It's not your fault. Don't say that." "But it is." "It's not." He said firmly. "You couldn't have known. That bastard deserves to be killed for even laying a finger on you. I will kill him with my bare hands if he ever gets close to you."

I just lost him. And it's my fault. My fucking fault.

I said. "You are my personal attendant, your fault is mine." Huh?

And all I can think is that it's my fault. All of it.

"This is all my fault." No, love. This is all mine.
