Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett's POV:

 Every time I was alone with William, I felt uncomfortable.I knew that he loved me, but I just couldn't love him back.And no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't force myself to accept his love.When I went back to my room, my two babies were sleeping in their crib.

Every night, before going to bed, I would check their condition several times.

Looking at their pure, innocent faces reminded me of James.The three of them looked exactly like each other.

Each time looked at the twins, I felt as though I was looking at James' face as an infant, and it broke my heart.

And this awful pain reminded me that James' death was an unforgivable sin that Charles and I committed together.

"Mom! Mom, I'm scared! Help! Help me, please!"

'It's James! That's his voice!' I remarked inwardly.

I fell into an unprecedented panic.

"James? Is that you?" I cried.

"Don't be afraid, my love! Where are you? Mommy's coming! I'll be right there!"

Desperately, I ran into the depths of the fog.But for some reason, my little angel's voice was drifting further and further away.I looked around, anxious to find him.But sadly, he was nowhere to be found.

All of a sudden, I felt a scathing pain in my ankle, and then I fell into a vast sea.The turbulent tides drowned me and I kept struggling underwater.

Gradually, the water filled my lungs, and the lack of oxygen began to blur my vision.

In a trance, I hallucinated about James.

His little body was motionless, drifting into the cold tides.

And slowly, he sank to the boundless sea before me.

With every ounce of strength I had in my body, I desperately reached for my baby boy and shouted in my heart.

'Somebody save him! God! Please...save my boy!' 

"No!" I couldn't remember just how many times I had woken up from a nightmare similar to this one.

As I gasped for air, tears and sweat rolled down my face at the same time.

With trembling hands, I fumbled to turn on the bedside lamp, looking around in a fit of panic.

It wasn't until I saw my twins sleeping soundly in their crib that my overwhelmed heart gradually calmed down.

Now, I was wide awake, so I opened the drawer of the bedside table and took out my laptop to begin working.
