Trying To Leave Something Behind Novels & Stories

one day I will be back. I stop by my car and lean against the door. Looking at the surroundings. It’s fall and the leaves have started to change color, the air is crispy. It’s beautiful, If I only could stay! Taking a moment to just breathe in, I'm standing here with a clean sheet in my life to whatever I am going to do now.

I did my possible best and please AJ do not make this hard for me and leave. You have a ring that makes you stay away from me; while I have nothing and no magic to make it possible or friends to help me out. So do me a favor and leave me be.” I didn't even wait for his words before gulping the content in the bottle and vanished from his room.
