He Hung Up on My Survival

Synopsis

On the night of the SAT, I was abducted by a deranged kidnapper and taken to a wooded area behind my school, where I was beaten and left on the brink of death. In my final moments, I dialed a call to my boyfriend who was ten years in the future. I said, "Joshua, I'm at Mount Eielliafor. Help me…" Before she could finish, he cut her off. He said sharply, "Are you having another episode? I'm just discussing work with Raquel. Do you really need to make a scene on our wedding anniversary? "I broke my leg saving you ten years ago. Are you going to drag me down for the rest of my life? "Alice, I'm tired." The kidnapper pressed a blade to her throat and laughed. "Your boyfriend, huh? If he comes to save you, I might even let you live a little longer." Joshua's voice came through, strained and weary. "Enough. I don't have time. If you want to kill her, then do it." The line went dead. Looking at the kidnapper's twisted smile, I stopped struggling. I realized that Joshua had once broken his leg saving me. Our future seemed to be a mess. He regretted saving me.
