(stories) five: In Reverse - a short dark story turned around

The Start (which is how the story ends).


Day 5. I'm not sure how I arrived at this moment.


Only a few days ago life was so very different, I had so much to live for. 


And now I stand on the edge of nothing, literally perched on the edge of nothingness.


And I feel the emptiness of the space, the wind on my face, on my whole body.


And in these final moments before I fall I wonder if there is any chance of redemption? thoughts run through my mind in the few seconds I have left to live before the ground rushes up through my mind… 


Day 4.  I don't know what went wrong or how it went so wrong so fast, but I'm scared. 


I don't really remember what happened. it all went so dark. my mind a blank for those precious few moments.


And in those moments she is gone forever.


And I'm to blame, her blood stains my hands.


Day 3. Yesterday was wonderful, just one of those days memories are made for.

 

And I know for sure that she has my heart. 

  

And for the first time in a long long time I'm looking forward to tomorrow.


Day 2. Today is bliss and I'm spending it with her and I have so much I want to say, and I have it all perfectly planned out in my head. 


It is the perfect day for a picnic in the park and I'm nervous as hell, but when I see her it all fades away and all I can do is smile. 


Day 1. Today starts out as nothing much but ends as the best day of my life because the most beautiful amazing girl in the world said yes.


The End. (which is where it all began).
