Ending

Many days later I am found drifting in a pool outside a mansion. Bodies flung everywhere. All of them decapitated except for one. The one under the gazebo, his body is maimed and shredded. His face in fine condition and connected to the rest of his body, or what’s left of it. Horror stricken on his face and frozen there to tell a story, my story, the story of my life and the death of it, I die at the end happy knowing I will meet my family once again.

Happy to know I served my purpose. Also, unhappy to have not known that Fannie married Angher and had kids, one named after me. Unhappy to know that teacher finally earned his trophy in the big leagues, or the fact that Jale lost his fighting capabilities after breaking his leg and splintering the bone after trying to chase after a female. And truly unhappy to never know that He was forever by himself wishing and hoping for me to come back and living for me and himself till he died in glory saving his niece from one of his own.

They cry for me as I celebrate them. I’m sure I’ll see them again when I have to, but for now I like the family time and the quiet.
