"Jordan is that you?"

Korä squints her eyes in time to see him sprint at her with a knife as he catches up she trips and he falls on her the knife ending up in her back.

People see and scream calling 911. He leans down and whispers "If I can't have you no one can see you in your next life. I'll never let you go." She gets fuzzy from blood loss but watches as Jordan cuts his own throat.

Passing away moments later it feels like she floating into space.
