//------------------------------// // Adagio's thoughts (first person) // Story: "You can live without me..." // by Sky Sunset shimmer //------------------------------// "I'll always protect you two, no matter what...It's a promise." My own phrase keep repeating and repeating in my head a dozen times, I tried to protect Aria and Sonata, I promised to them I would protect them, I promised to my mom I would protect them, I promised to myself I would protect them, all seemed so well, until a month ago. I just don't know what Aria had, I still remember the night we discovered that she were very very sick: We were all sleeping, so I heard a huge pain scream, and it was Aria,it was her voice,I ran to see what was going on. I turned on the lights. "Aria what is happening?Are you okay?"I asked worried. " AAH!"Was everything she could answer. Her dark pink face now was pale,and she was sweating cold,she seemed to be in so much pain,and she couldn't move,she was breathing very heavily. I took her into my lap,even if I didn't have force to get her in my lap anymore. " Sonata,wake up!"I waked up Sonata. " What is happening?"She asked. "No time to explain!We need to take Aria to the hospital!"I said as I put Aria into the back bank of my car .So we took Aria to the hospital. I hadn't forces to visit Aria while she was hospitalized, and that night were the last time I saw my sister alive. I didn't take care of her how I had promised. I can hear Sonata crying from here, that is another thing that makes me feel sad, after Aria's death, Sonata become depressed, and crazy, she talks to the walls sometimes. I feel like it's my fault, both Aria's death and Sonata's depression,I didn't protect my sisters how they deserved. So that's my life now sit in the sofa,hearing Sonata crying, while I drink a huge bottle of vodka? I think so. All I want now, is cry myself to sleep, but,I must stay strong, for Sonata, while Sonata is alive, I must protect her. I will protect her, that's a promise!
