Daughter

　　The tears swam down her face.

　　"HOW COULD YOU RONALD," she screamed, her heart beating out of her chest.

　　"It was only for the best Julia... She had to go," He replied, his voice barely audible through his whispers.

　　"She was our DAUGHTER," Julia shouted, she ran straight for him, her dress torn by the passing tree branches. Ronald ran for his life, dodging each twig and jumping each creek. They kept running but Julia never grew tired. Ronald's legs started to collapse, suddenly he slipped. He lost hold of the branch providing him balance and fell towards the gushing river.

　　"I'm coming for you Ronald," Julia's voice can be heard from the distance. He panicked, he couldn't do anything, his ankles burned against the rushing water. He swam with only his arms, his upper body strength was the only thing he could rely on.

　　He felt his whole body pull back, he was stuck. His foot caught hold between two boulders, it was wedged shut. The water level grew higher, soon he was enveloped by the river. He couldn't breathe, he thought to himself. He panicked. Julia's face hovered above the water's surface, her face was horrifying. It was all too much, his lungs gave way and slowly his eyelids fell. "This was it," he thought. "Now Julia will never know that our daughter was in fact, safe and alive..."
