Closure (6)

You said that you'll never let go. You said that you'll NEVER let go. She said it over and over again in her sleep. She was dreaming the same nightmare again. A nightmare where she walked alone after all the girls left with the guys who brought them an umbrella, shielding them from the rain. She desperately tried to find a place to avoid the rain from soaking her clothes wet even more. But there were no way to go.
Then, suddenly, she reached the part that she had never seen before. She kept on walking until she could see an intersection. From the distance, she noticed that someone was standing there. The closer she got the more she could see that the person standing there was him. Her love... her life... With a red umbrella in hand, he appeared to held one hand out to her. She started running towards him as she shouted, You said that you'll never let go, over and over again. When her hand was just a few inches from him, she woke up, panting, sweating, crying.
Reality suddenly hit her. It was not him that had let go, it was her. As the revelation seeped through her mind, she sobbed. All this time... it was really me... it was I who let go... it was my mistake...
After an hour, she stopped crying. A faint smile on her face. She walked to the window of her bedroom. Despite the heavy rain, she opened the window and stared blankly ahead. Don't worry, honey, I'll make it up to you. Don't worry, this time, I won't let go. And with that she jumped out of the window. Her body slammed to the street below. The water that surrounds her suddenly turned dark red. Her body was lifeless, but her smile was still there.

Along came a man, with a red umbrella in one hand, and another hand held out towards her. 'I'm here, honey, I'm always here. Come, let us go home.'
