#Chapter326
Our past can haunt us if we let it
Lyric
/"Lyric!/"
Arms held me as I screamed and babbled. Oh, my God! That was a hellish nightmare.
/"Lyric! It’s me, Michael. Open your eyes./"
I opened my eyes, glancing around the room. Everyone was staring at me as Grampa and Nana came downstairs.
I buried my head into Michael and clung to him. The nightmare terrified me, and I felt horrible. His words sliced through my brain and heart. It was all my fault.
Michael held me as I repeated the words over and over. Then what I said next shocked everyone. /"I can’t do this./"
I pushed him away as I got up and ran. He ran after me.
/"Lyric!/" Michael chased after me until he reached me, then stopped me.
/"I can’t do this! Because I fell in love with you, I betrayed Daniel! I can’t betray him! It’s all my fault! Because of me, he killed himself!/"
