Tw: major character death
Based on Chris Argent processing Allison’s death
Chris Argent shut the door behind him and stood in the empty house. The silence seemed to echo off the walls. It was as if the world were asleep. The early morning sunlight poured in through the windows, casting the walls and floors in a warm glow. It would have been a beautifully peaceful morning.
He was dirty. Covered in grim and blood, Chris Argent stood in his polished foyer. Just last week he had nagged Allison about taking her shoes off inside.
With a shaky sigh, Chris Argent sunk down to the ground, his back against the front door. For the first time that night he let out a sob. Raw and broken it bounced off the white walls, echoing all around him.
Chris Argent could barely choke out the words.
He wasn’t sure when it started but he was hyperventilating. His heart was pounding against his chest as he gasped in quick breaths of air. He couldn’t stop. Everything was spinning and the tears were now running down his face.
“I’m sorry” he gasped between harsh breath, over and over, like a prayer. “Please, I’m sorry, I tried I’m sorry, I… I…”
The more he said the two words the more he began to panic.
He tucked his knees against his chest and leaned against the door for dear life.
“Allison… baby, I’m sorry.”
At the sound of his own voice saying her name, a shock of grief ran through him and suddenly his crying deceased. Only the sounds of his quiet labored breathing could now be heard.
Chris Argent laid his head down on the tiled floor and allowed his eyes to close.
As he began to drift off to sleep, a warmth embraced him and a feeling of forgiveness washed over for a moment before it faded as sleep took over.
