Damn... *huff* I should've chosen a higher window. The jump should've killed me instantly.
His skin was turning pale as the teachers rushed into the front yard. The midday sun was burning his skin.
I wish this ends soon.
His vision was getting blurry as he started to cough blood. Mrs.Yeşim rushed to his side, crying.
"Why did you do this?"
"I couldn't get the perfect score in your exam," he said in a monotone tone.
"But why? Why did you want to have perfect scores on every exam? Why are those worth your life for you?"
You wouldn't understand if I told you.
He was beginning to blackout. As everything around him started to vanish, his teacher's cries became gibberish.
Is it over?

"His name is Dagny." he heard a female voice say. "Go on Dagny, introduce yourself."
He looked around, he was at the orphanage he lived in prior to living with his foster family. There were his parents sitting across him.
Should I choose them again? he thought. Last time things had gone pretty well until high school.
"He is a special kid." The female voice said again. "He is just a bit shy."
I am not shy! Well, at least you are right about something. I am indeed special.
I was forty-five when I had died. I lived a mediocre life. I had a "good" job that I didn't like. I wasn't married. And I died alone in a hospital room.
I can't remember what killed me. All I know is when I pleaded for a second chance from god. He answered me. I woke up at this exact moment, choosing my foster family.
I chose a different family than the ones who weren't even by my side when I was in my death bed. Life went on and this time I tried not to waste this golden opportunity.
But... you never know what is gonna happen tomorrow.
I died in a car crash when I was ten. I was broken. Broken because I knew I had messed up. I had an opportunity which was only given to me. I spat all the curses I knew and died in the flaming car.
But, I woke up here again. I realized what great power I might have.
I played my cards right. Invested in a couple of places and got rich easily. But that didn't satisfy me. So I jumped off the cliff my mansion was on and came back here.
Now I follow my dreams. To live the life I have always desired.
