The moment you leave this world is the moment this world will be relieved from a burden like you!"My mother's line kept repeating itself in my head, over and over, tainting my thoughts and intentions like oil against water.

Submitted to Contest #50

The gentle breeze swept across my face as I took a moment to gaze out the window to the sunset before returning to the novel. The romance genre of the novel complimented perfectly with the warm rays of sun and blush-red and orange that bounced around the small room.
