The best thing

"No! Please, don't do this to me, Alex. Please!" Abi pleaded. Her voice shook as she tried to pull her hands away from him. Her mind was going numb, the pain in her heart had reached its peak and she didn't know if it would be able to take any more. It hurt so much that her tears had dried up and her body lost all its strength. If not for the rope that was tied around her, she would have fallen to her knees.

The smoke filled her lungs. There was no way she couldn't breathe it in. The smoke made her feel dizzy. No, please… she couldn't succumb to this. If she did, her Alex, her husband would… she would lose him forever.

Abi gritted her teeth and she begged him again and again.

"Alex… you said you love me. I am your wife! You can't do this to me! Please! I don't know what I would do without you! You are my reason for living. Please, don't!," she cried in agony, filling the room with unbearable pain.
