Decent Essays

I didn’t know Marilyn for long, but I was with her long enough to know she was an amazing person. She was a nice girl for the short amount of time I got to know her. There aren’t many nice people these days, people always have somewhere to be or something to do. They don’t have time to talk, but not Marilyn.

He told her he loved her and everything would be okay. If I could prevent her from going on the ship I would. I hope you forgive me for what I had to do to Marilyn, it is not something I’m proud of. The red lever used to open the airlock, it will haunt me for the rest of my life. I will not be able to forget what happened that day. These are all the wonderful things I know about her in the small time I knew
