Last year during this time Joshua saved her from drowning. How she wished he didn’t. Maybe if he didn’t, she wouldn’t have hurt so much as she is today. Her legs edge her into the deeper end of the water. Joshua, seeing Emily going into the water, panicked. She can’t swim. “Oh, what if she is trying to commit suicide.

She love that little growth inside of her as much as she loves him. She wouldn’t do anything to make the both of them regret. That is especially him. Then he thought back to what Emily said to him before he left. “Oh no, is she really going to make me live a life of regret?” he thought. “What happened?” asked Jack. “What do you mean what happened?” questioned Joshua, wanting to punch the shit out of this man. “Emily was so happy this morning that she was going t
