It was a dark night, as Katherine sat at a table drinking a bottle of Bourbon, hoping for the pain and grief to go away. She didn't want to feel anything. She was in pain from dying of old age. Death would be kind to her. 481Please respect copyright.PENANASMzLBUvC1q
Suddenly, she saw her recent ex-boyfriend, Elijah, walk into the Mystic Grille. She didn't go to him, though. She just continued drinking away her sorrows. She didn't know why he was back in town, but she told herself that she didn't care. Right now, all she cared about was having one last drink before she killed herself. Her plan was to jump off the clock tower in the town square. Then her slow suffering would end.481Please respect copyright.PENANACbbOBsFyyz
When he had finished his drink, Elijah sat down next to her. 481Please respect copyright.PENANA9cRtPqOAFJ
"Katerina," he greeted her. 481Please respect copyright.PENANAwnoAMRaBIs
"Elijah," she replied. "Why don't you go back to New Orleans?"481Please respect copyright.PENANA1UjYCuCHsS
"Because I came back for you," he confessed. "Now what has you in such a bad mood?"481Please respect copyright.PENANAGv2sPYmMQe
She explained to him all that he had missed and what was happening to her. 481Please respect copyright.PENANATLmMRk6Bh8
"Oh, Katerina," was all he could say. 481Please respect copyright.PENANAdTso0bCHkO
"Go on; leave just like you did before," she said. 481Please respect copyright.PENANAgVCugj4c8W
"I'm not leaving you, Katerina."481Please respect copyright.PENANAuJcA2WXkaF
He knew he couldn't after she had told him everything. He would never leave her in her time of need. Besides, he still loved her with all of his heart, no matter what. 481Please respect copyright.PENANA7VAQgcOMvn
"Good. I've missed you," she replied with a smile. 481Please respect copyright.PENANANNq5itghqp
"As have I," he replied. 481Please respect copyright.PENANAz6ZOur5zvR

A few weeks later, they found a way to save her and she was no longer dying of old age. Elijah even got back together with her and never left her ever again.481Please respect copyright.PENANA8Jdi2yeQ5D
