Chapter 8

She knelt by my lifeless body, her eyes brimming with tears, filled with deep remorse.

"Martin, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me! Open your eyes and give me a chance to atone! I truly can't live without you!"

My task was almost complete.

Grandma rushed to my bedside, her face streaked with tears.
