This gave us immense peace. I placed my head on his shoulders while he smiled looking at me. "I wish, I could stop the time right here and right now," I spoke in a sad tone. "You have no idea how much I wish the same," he replied. "What a chaotic mess is this. Our lives," I uttered. "I wish I could deny that," he chuckled. "I wish," I gasped and went silent. We had so many 'I wish' but we could see none of them coming true. I had chosen my path and so did he.

Where did I lack that I lost you once again? Because I did love you, with everything I had… I just wish you talked to me… But I wasn’t important enough…

that night. I still wished I had just told him to leave.. I wished I stopped him. I wished I wasn't seduced by his shoulders, his height and every other thing about him or sometimes I even wish I actually never attended that party that night, I wish something came up, I wish grandma took her drugs and didn't need to see Evelyn to do it.

She also remembered how weak Julissa’s pulse had been when she was brought in—so faint it was barely there… Everything that had happened flashed chaotically through her mind. If only she had noticed that person rushing over sooner, Julissa wouldn’t have been hurt. If only she hadn’t said, “Kendrick will catch him,” maybe that man wouldn’t have struck so mercilessly.

I know she’s angry with me, and she has every right to be, but God do I wish I could turn back time and tell her the truth before it was too late.

And in its place— Hope. Freedom. Strength. Like maybe… just maybe… I can still move forward. My lips part slightly. The words leave me before I can stop them. “I wish I could have that...” I whisper.
