A Second Chance: I'll make ammends

"I'm sorry Lihua"

Those were the last words she heard before everywhere went pitch black

'What happened?', she couldn't make out where she was, and her blurry vision wasn't exactly helping

"Tss, sh*t", she hissed in pain trying to pull herself up from the ground, everywhere hurt and the pain only got worse,

Her ears were ringing incessantly and she felt blood trickle down her forehead, just how did she end up like this?

the last thing she remembered was being driven home by Fu Hao, other than that, her memory drew blank

'Wait Fu Hao, where is he?, Having had the realization, the shock erased the layer of haze from her eyes and she frantically roamed her eyes around to search for him

"No!", She dragged her injured body over to where he lay, completely lifeless. He was covered in blood and bruises from glass shards which had pierced into him

Tears rolled down her face uncontrollably as she stared at the gruesome sight of her husband which she was supposed to hate,

"It was all my fault", Her memories were triggered and it all came back to her, she had gotten into trouble and Fu Hao had come to help her, as usual. She had bickered with him, being ungrateful, then simmered down and decided to think of a new way to anger him, before she could process anything, a truck had come speeding into them, and left them in their current states,

"H-He's in, this state, because, of me", she choked on tears and wished that all of this was nothing but a dream, what made it even worse was the fact that right before they were crashed into, he had wrapped himself around her and had taken most of the damage

"T-This is, is, all m-my, fault", she collapsed on the ground and continued to sob, the man she had hated for more than six years, had easily given up his life for her, all while apologizing,

She didn't deserve it,

He had loved her, and even when she caused trouble to make him divorce her, he would never agree. She had despised him with everything in her, but now, she realized that she couldn't imagine living without him. The irony.

She lay unmoving on the ground with tear-stained cheeks, her body still hurt, but it was incomparable to the pain in her heart,

'Maybe, just maybe, if we ever meet again, I promise to make amends

She closed her eyes and coughed up a mouthful of blood, even with knowing what was coming, there was a sad yet mocking smile on her face, and then with nothing but pain and regret engraved in her heart, she finally breathed her last.
