It should have been me

Just a short story I thought of. It's not about me!

It should have been you. That is what my parents said when we had a car accident and my sister died.

It should have been you. They meant it, they even begged to get my sister back in exchange for mine.

I locked myself in my chamber, cried until my tears were all spilled. I hugged myself and my arms turned blue.

Were they right? Should it have been me?

My parents don’t talk to me anymore. They ignore me and I have to take care of myself. I wish it would have been me.

But it wasn’t. I life, my sister is dead. One can’t change the past, can he?

It should have been me. I should have died. But I haven’t. Not yet.

The scars on my wrists predict I will soon enough. I can’t wait to satisfy my parents. It should be me. I will die, because they want me to.
