Loss and Regret
"Somebody help me" I screamed. My mind was covered with rage. Who would dare to do such a thing to her? If they wanted to come at me they should have just faced me head on. I was extremely terrified by what I saw. I had only been gone for about twenty minutes and I came back to see Shanze's lifeless body.
I had few people in my life who I could be myself with and now one of them is gone. I struggled to take it all in. Maybe it was the pregnancy hormones but my feelings were very heightened and my chest tightened as if it would burst out of my ribcage any moment from now.
As I sat there crying, like a jolt of electricity, the words of the moon goddess came back into my mind. "Those you love will part from you and grief will come to you....".
"Why does life have to be so unfair to me", I shouted. Nothing ever goes fine for me. It felt as if the world was mocking me.
