Could he do it?
An image of Annie's face flashed in his mind. He could almost hear her voice asking him what he was doing.
Did he really want to die?
"No!" A cry of anguish tore from his chest as he fell to his knees. "Jesus!" he pleaded. "Oh God help me!"
It wasn't like He was listening. Too much had happened. He was irredeemable.
Yet another voice called him out of the darkness.
