Sapphire felt the desperate need of oxygen in her lungs. Her vision was blurred by the angry waves. However, she was in a calm state because it was a choice that she chose. She knew it was wrong, but the pain was too much to handle.
The sun shone over the endless ocean and the reflection of light that hits the surface of the water cast a light green color on it. Sapphire sat on the heated sand. The wind was blowing gently and she scooped a handful of sand and then let it be carried away by the wind.
The brownish smooth sand reminded Sapphire of how she and her loved one wrote their names on the sand. He would bring her to the seaside and they would scribble on the sand. When the waves washed away those words, Seth would tell her that they'll remain forever in his heart, including her name.
Dark clouds started hovering the sun and the gentle breeze turned into a gush of strong wind. The sound of the waves hitting the bay was intimidating. People started packing and going off the shore. But Sapphire remained sitting in her white maxi dress. She was not influenced by the weather as she was bog up in her own emotions and thinking.
Why did Seth do such thing to her? Why did he cheat on her? She was furious, hurt and above all, hopeless. His name that she wrote she cut it off with a piece of stick in anger. She loved him, with all her heart, but what she got in return was betrayal.
Sapphire stood up and started advancing towards the bay. Fierce waves splashed the rocks in a merciless way. Darkness covered the sky and Sapphire's heart. The wind started to howl signaling a torrential downpour which was about to occur.
Sapphire wasn't going to back down. She loved Seth more than her life. The pain she felt were as if pieces of shrapnel stuck to her heart. What was better than to end it this way?
Seth reached just a little too late. He shouted her name but the wind was too loud. All he could see was Sapphire, in her beautifully flowing maxi dress and her long locks of dark shiny hair, walking off the edge of the rocks in a way that was almost too painful to watch. He was a minute late. Sapphire was gone. The sky started to cry, as if it felt her pain.
Seth had no one to blame, but himself. It was his own fault that Sapphire chose to end her pain. But after all, Seth loved her, he really did. He wished for nothing more than to be reunited with her.
