It was a near loss. I set my keys down, routine. But the house was.. empty. Of the feeling it once had. Of the happy memories it once carried.
Now it was shrouded by the memory of a red pool and a pale body in the corner of the room. I remember. The panic, the fear. My world was slowly crashing as I called the ambulance. I forget what was said. As I tried to keep the only person that mattered to stay with me. Just awhile longer. The sputtered apologies, from the both of us.
I threw my glass at the wall. "Stay here.." I remember repeating those words while frantically trying to stop the bleeding. I screamed. Here and now, I screamed.
