In moments like this, the main lead in a movie usually has her life flash before her eyes. Then, the male lead comes in the nick of time to save her, realizing that he is in love with her, and the two of them are happily ever after.
'Damn it.'
That won't happen to me because I'm not the main lead, not even in my own life. No matter how much I fight for myself to stand on the stage, I will only be shoved off later.
'Will I eventually die as Hazel? Darn it.'
The screeching sound of car tires braking sounded deafening in my ears. Coupled with the emptiness around me, the sound was even more heart-wrenching.
I could feel the hot steam in front of my knees as the car almost touched my knees.
I gulped down hard, trying to compose myself even though my legs almost gave out.
