A terrible scenario flashed through my mind in an instant.
I took a shallow breath in, then let it out.
No, stop imagining bad things.
There’s no point in picturing the worst before it even happens.
It felt ridiculous—maybe even selfish—that I, someone who had tried to die so many times, was now afraid of someone else’s death.
But what can I do? Humans are selfish by nature.
Or maybe… we’re all just selflessly selfish.
