---- Chapter 6 After parking my car at the gates of the cemetery, I gripped the silver dagger and stepped onto the stone path leading up the hill without hesitation. The photo on the tombstone was silent and colorless. Iused to never dare look at her for more than a second, always passing by in a hurry. But not tonight. Under the moonlight, the dagger in my hand glinted with a cold, metallic sheen. I didn't hesitate. The first cut landed on the thinnest skin of my wrist. The second traced the faint blue vein beneath. The third, I aimed at my chest. Bright red blood dripped onto the stone slabs, drip by drip. It reminded me of the wine spilled on the day Samuel and Jill dined together. Now, perhaps on the verge of death, I felt an ---- unexpected calm. Even my heart didn't ache anymore. Suddenly, a loud smack jolted me. Before I could react, a tall man wrestled the dagger from my grip and kicked it aside. His eyes landed on my face. He froze for a second, then his gaze dropped to my bleeding wrist. His expression paled instantly. He pulled out a handkerchief and pressed it firmly against the wound. Blood soaked through the white cloth. He grabbed my other hand and started pulling me away. I caught sight of the ring on his finger. Before I realized it, I had started walking behind him. That pink sapphire ring was one of a kind. I had seen its pair before. It used to hang on a chain, resting against Cherry's collarbone. On the ground near us lay a carefully wrapped bouquet. ---- The man's profile, blurred in the shadows, finally triggered a memory. He was Mike Bauer, Cherry's old lover. Mike floored the gas pedal. He drove like a madman, speeding the whole way to the infirmary. The healer treated my wounds carefully. Upon noticing how empty I looked, she gave Mike a long list of instructions. The infirmary was still full of other patients. I sat quietly on a bench, staring at the white bandages freshly wrapped around my arm while waiting for Mike to return. My phone on the bench kept ringing. Samuel's name lit up the screen again and again, like he didn't know how to stop. "Are you not going to answer?" Mike asked. I shook my head. My eyes fell back to the pink sapphire ring on his finger.
