They Said I Wouldn't Make It Novels & Stories

You always do. "I will," I promised, but I wasn’t sure if I could though.

But I was done. This dumb plan was not going to work , who was i kidding ?

They’d done what they could. “You didn’t fail,” I murmured, trying to dispel the tension. It didn’t matter how many times I said it; it wouldn’t change anything. They still felt responsible for not stopping what had happened. For not preventing me from almost dying. “We should have been there,” one of them said quietly, his voice rough. I sighed, leaning my head against the cool window. “I wasn’t your responsibility. And besides, we’re here now. Let’s just focus on that.”

I said, my voice steady again, “I’m not going anywhere.” And I meant it. Even if it hurt.

I want you to make the promise to me that you would never try it. I shrugged. "I won't do it, I promise.“

This time, I won't survive it. I won't.

I mumbled knowing I’m admitting failure “ You will be fine my dear.” Was all they said before they all just disappeared What am I supposed to do with that???

“It’s okay. So, what do you say?” Vince didn’t want me. His friend didn’t want me. Maybe I was just an unattractive piece of shit. I took a deep breath. “Sure, sounds good.”

I wanted to speak but the words couldn't leave my mouth. How do I say that I had decided to give up?

I said,’ This was going to be one long awkward ride that’s for sure.
