AUTHOR'S POV

"Stop!" Her voice quivered as she yelled to the taxi driver.

That was enough for Ana to return.

"What have I done?" Her breath trembled as she threw the door open and hurried out of the taxi. Her hands trembled as she stumbled onto the pavement. "Dennis!" She yelled as her knees fell to the hard concrete ground. "Please, no," she whispered, her gaze on the mangled car. "Dennis, please be alive." She crawled to the car, peering in to see him, but it was all dark in there and her sobs heightened. "Why did I leave? Why didn't I just wait for him?"

She wiped her tears. "I promise," she sniffed. "I won't go to Amie anymore, I promise, Dennis, please, come out," she cried as she vaguely recalled him telling her that Amie has gotten justice and there was no need to go to her anymore. This was all her fault. She should have listened to him. She should have waited for him before she left.

"Ana!" Aiden cried as he rushed out of the car. He was relieved to see Ana. He had found a taxi a while after Dennis drove off and followed him. When he noticed the crowd and saw that there had been an accident, he was scared that it was Ana. "Shit!" He muttered as he came to a stop before Ana, recognizing the ruined car as Dennis'.

Ana scrambled to her feet and clutched at his shirt. "Please, bring him out, I beg you. Tell him I'm sorry," she pleaded then turned back to the car and called out. "Dennis, please come out."

Aiden held Ana to him as he called an ambulance.

The ambulance arrived on time.

"Dennis! No, please, don't take him too from me," Ana cried as Aiden pulled her away so the paramedic team could have their way.
