What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger
Chapter 16
White. Everything was white. The grass, the sky, the trees, everything. And I was alone.
"What's going on? Where am I?" I wondered aloud.
"You're at the halfway point between Heaven and Hell." A voice boomed...a voice that sounded a lot like my deceased grandfather.
"What? Why?" My confused voice questioned.
"Avery, tell me this; were you trying to kill yourself?"
"Yes." I said shamefully.
"Do you still want to live? Is a worthless boyfriend ending your life?"
"It wasn't just him. It was...everybody. They just made me feel like I wasn't worth it."
"What happened to the Avery that I know? The Avery that couldn't give two shits on what other people thought?"
"I don't know."
"Well, I want to see that Avery again. Not this one."
"Ok."
"Now, the only question is: do you want to continue your life? Or would you rather end it like you originally planned?" The voice asked. I thought about that. Do I want to continue living? Was it even worth it?
Just as I was about to say my answer, images of family and friends popped into my mind. Images of my life before the accident, how happy I was and how much fun I had. Once again, I opened my mouth to say my answer. But, the reasons on why I wanted to end my life came back into my mind.
"Think about it child. It's your life. Don't make a choice that you'll regret." The voice stated. Thinking about it a little more, I opened my moth to give my answer...one that I hope I won't regret and one that I hope will sit well with the people that I love.
