An Affair with Death

At the end of the day, my colleague, Melody Christie, came to find me. She wanted me to cover her night shift.

I turned her down because I had commitments after work.

That night, she was caught abandoning her shift and she got fired.

Melody blamed me for it. Just when I was almost going into labor, she pushed me down the stairs.

"Do you know how hard I worked to get this job? If it was not for you, I wouldn't have been fired! If I'm going down, I'm taking you down with me!"

I died, and my baby did not survive either.
