Chapter 10 : I am Sorry Too!

Chapter 1

After having the lunch they were instructed to start penning about their experiences, thoughts and the mysteries they found on their exploration day. Shallow asked, “Let’s all go to the Dark Point, shall we? I think we haven’t visited that place yet.” Ally thought that it would be a good idea to give them some space to settle the understandings between them. So she denied by giving the reason that her friend Mary asked her for some help. So, Shallow and Alicia headed towards the Dark Point. Meanwhile Shallow asks Alicia,”Hey Alicia you okay? Tell me something which you want to do in life? Like something which you aim for and if done your life will be accomplished.” Alicia replied, “I am fine, thanks to you, you are very understanding. Talking about the other question, why suddenly this?” Shallow replied, “Umm nothing, it just came up.” Alicia replied, “I always wanted to start an NGO to help people suffering from mental problems. If I could help them, my life as you say will be accomplished haha. What about you?” Shallow replied, “Pretty impressed Cia! I hope I can call you by that name else Ally’s gonna kill me next time haha. For me, it's been travelling the world. So, getting it accomplished is gonna take a hell lot of time.” “Live Long Life, is what I would say haha”,Alicia said. They reached the Dark Point. They sat on the bench and started penning their ideas .

Around ten minutes later Shallow stands up and goes near the edge of the cliff and stands still. Alicia after a minute goes near Shallow to see that he was crying. “Hey! What happened? Thinking about Serena?” She hugs Shallow. “No, I am thinking about you.”Shallow replies while still crying. “Hey, I am fine, don’t worry about me. Trust me I am fine. Please don’t cry.”Alicia said. Shallow said, “Alicia it’s time, I have to do it. If not now, I’ll lose her forever.” “Hey, what do you wanna do? I’ll help you for sure and what’s the matter? Who are you gonna lose if you won’t do it?” “My mom.” ,Shallow replied. Further Alicia asks about the reason to which Shallow says, “I never wanted to do this. I gave you many signs to ditch me, to not come with me, but you eventually did. If you call them your illusions, they were not. It was me, I was warning you. But you were so reluctant, you chose to come with me anyways. You should have not!” “What! Shallow.. It was you? Why!? Why did you do all of this and why should I not come with you? You knew about your sister from the beginning right? What’s going on Shallow?”Alicia was extremely frightened. “Today it’s…. Gonna end, I am sorry too!” Shallow replied.
