I tried. That's what matters, right? That I tried, even if it wasn't enough?
I wanted her to know that someone cared, that things could be different, but it wasn't enough. I wasn't enough.
...I'm never enough. It scares me, makes me wonder how long until I'm not enough to keep Gabe alive. Until he just gives up like she did.
She'll never know, we'll never be able to change it. They'll do everything in their power to keep her from being born after this, I'm sure of it. They've seen the future, and they didn't care for it.
...it hurts, and I don't know how to fix it.
He slips the battered, black leather book back into the nightstand drawer and leaves the room
