His Death
#WritcoStoryChallenge
The footsteps following me sounded closer. I ran through the empty corridors of the hospital, my heart pounding with terror.
I turned a corner and stopped short. I had reached a dead end. "Your journey stops here," Jeoff said, stepping into the flickering.
"Jeoff... Please!" I shrieked. My body shook violently as my palms got sweaty. "I didn't mean it!"
"You ruined everything!" Jeoff said lowly, clutching his gun. "I had a wife, Mario. You killed her."
"Look, Jeoff... She nearly killed me. So I finished the job," I said, holding up my hands. "She was a murderer, Jeoff."
"I don't care! I loved her!" Jeoff shouted, cocking his gun. "And you're going to die just like Amaria." And with that, he pulled the trigger.
I waited for the pain... but it never came. I then finally came back to reality. "Jeoff!" I shouted, kneeling beside his unconsious body.
"UNCLE JEOFF!"
