Summary: Toby's thoughts after Chris goes over the railing


I never meant to kill you. I just wanted you away from me.

I can remember pushing you away- I don't even think I pushed that hard, and then you were gone, over the railing and onto the cold floor below.

But not before calling my name-

Toby, no!

It was all so fast. You were there and then you weren't. I remember my hand reaching out.

Like you wanted me to, like you always wanted me to.

You always had a hold on me, until you didn't.

You shouldn't have tried so hard to hold on to me.

I never meant to kill you.

But I'm glad I did.
