He grabbed her arm, steadying her. Are you sure you're okay to walk?

He let her. When she was out of sight, he began to cry again.

Rex sat on the rock, brushing her hands off on the moss by her feet.

He doesn't want me... He never did. Shut it out... don't remember....

Rex focused on pushing the memories of the day to the very darkest corner of her mind, not looking at all the clutter back there. She vision swam and she fainted.

Daniel sat on the earth continuing to weep. Should he check on Rex? No, that would make it worse. He had to let her be, it would be better that way.

 Then he heard something hit the ground. He jumped at the noise, then slowly clambered to his feet. What had that been? He started walking to investigate, and soon came across Rex’s still body. He screamed in agony.

...I feel bad about that girl. I survived, and she did not. And more people hurt for her loss than would have for mine.
