WE HAVE A PROBLEM.

"Ahhh!!" Astrid's scream was drowned out by the sound of her heartbeat. 

"He… He is dead," Astrid said to herself like she was trying to wake herself up from a nightmare.

She felt like she was going to pass out, her vision blurring at the edges, at the horrible sight of the man she had always called her father.

Julian's arms were around her, holding her upright, but she couldn't feel anything. She was numb, her mind reeling with shock and horror.

"Everyone! Stay back!" Cops surged through from their cars as they rushed to Josh's side. Then it was done on her, he had committed suicide, he died to put her through pain.

He decided to kill himself when she was supposed to be happy, he couldn't bear to see her win.

Astrid's eyes met Julian's, and she saw the same shock and fear reflected at her.
