DELILAH JACKSON

I am Delilah Jackson, the girl who lost her boyfriend in a terrible car accident 1 year ago, 24 years old, living in Amsterdam Netherlands with my mom and dad I am the only child and currently I am working at a private clinic as a surgeon anyways let me tell you how it all began:

I was coming back from work, to get my self ready to go out with William(my boyfriend), he was not just a boyfriend he was more than that, he was my friend,I literally grew up with him, since kindergarten we have been friends, so I was ready and he came to pick me up::

William: Hey D, how was work today?- he asked-

Delilah: it was good hon- he said starting the car engine-

That night was one of the best nights I have ever had, he surprised me with a dinner by the beach, my favorite spot, and since now...every time I feel lost, I go there where we had our date, then we went back to the car and the streets were empty since it was almost midnight, and he was speeding because I asked him to, and till now I feel guilty for what I did, It was supposed to be me not him, I was the one supposed to die not him, some minutes later I told him to reduce the speed but he didn't listen...

Delilah: WILLIAM REDUCE THE SPEED FOR GOD'S SAKE- I shouted and he stopped the car-

William: Geez D, stop being so childish why are you doing this-

Delilah: wait what, you are the one speeding and I am childish?- I asked him and he was getting in my nerves,-  yeah apparently you are!- he said that and I opened the car door slamming  it- FINE, then go, acting childish by your self, I AM DONE!- I said and started walking towards home, but I could feel people following me, I looked back and they were 3 men they looked like people who could harm someone, so I didn't think twice, took my phone and called Will,

*PHONE CALL ON*

Will: hey D, I wanted to tell you so...-

Delilah: William, come back please someone is following me please come back I am scared...- I said panicking

Will: okay, I was literally coming back, don't hang up- I did as he said, but after some minutes they were very close they started calling me and right just before I started running, I saw a car coming in full speed and crashing down, after the crash the 3 men ran away...

Delilah: No this can't be him- I said whispering to my self, I went near the car and saw him, I panicked and I was scared, I didn't know how to react, couldn't believe it was him, I fell on the floor, couldn't control myself and I cried so hard cause I didn't know he was alive or not, my heart was pounding so hard and fast, he bled and at that moment I crawled near to the drivers seat and took him out the car, I did the mouth to mouth process and he woke up...

Delilah: Oh GOD, Will... Wi- I was so relieved that he was okay breathing- it's okay, it's okay let me call the ambulance- but he took my hand and said-

William: hey D, don't worry okay, I will be safe with him- he pointed to the sky- tell my mom and dad I love them so much- he said struggling to breath-

Delilah: No, what are you talking about? save your breath, okay? don't talk, you will say that to your parents by your self when you get better okay- I said knowing what would happen next but I couldn't give up that easily-

William: Delilah, let me go it's time, you will be happy, I 'll be watching you from above- he said holding me hand so tight- I love you D...- when he said that, his hand dropped mine, and I started doing the paramedics stuff and what I hated the most is that I am a fucking surgeon to save people's life and I didn't save my soulmate's life, there weren't any material, no knife no anything, but after some minutes there was no pulse, and his organs were dysfunctional to get even worse I couldn't feel his heartbeat and he was gone, I started crying and hugged him so hard, I called the ambulance and their parents we went to the hospital nothing changed, I told their parents what happened they didn't blame me they hugged me instead, but it doesn't change the fact that it was my fault no matter what other people say, my other half was gone and part of me went with him...

PRESENT DAY:

After the incident I am no more the same, I got skinnier, I stopped talking that much only when necessary, my life is  home-job-home this is it, for the last 365days my life has been like this  and I gave up in love, I lost hope, I am  no longer the same Delilah from 1 year ago...
