Every cell in my body felt like it was on fire. I screamed and writhed in agony. Nothing had ever felt this horrible, not even when the Cryptex cursed me.
I could hear my screams echoing off the bathroom walls, my mind swimming in pain and fear. I didn’t know what was happening to me. The pain was going to kill me. I just knew it….
How could anyone survive that kind of pain?
Suddenly, I felt like I was falling. The bathroom floor dropped out from under me and I was whizzing through the air, falling further and further into a bottomless pit.
My stomach flew into my throat and my head spun as I fell through the darkness. I thought I’d fall forever, screaming and moaning in pain as the bottomless pit swallowed me whole.
The walls of the pit were made up of my memories of Jared. I saw them so clearly, of all the love and experiences we shared.
As I watched them, the memories started to change. It was like they were being erased.
