Chapter 566
Just as she was walking she caught sight of someone who stood at the tip of the cliff looking down at the height the person stood on . Pursing her lips, Penny took the decision to walk up there to see a man whose legs shook back and forth as if preparing to jump from there .
\"Hey!\" Penny shouted at the man, her voice loud as the air was too breezy up here at the cliff . The man turned around to look at her and her eyes widened because of the blood that covered his white shirt along with his hands, \"What are you doing there?\" she asked him . It was obvious that he was planning to kill himself from this height .
The man moved his lips but the words that he spoke did not reach her ears .
\"You're going to fall from there if you move any closer,\" she shouted again to see the man not react to it . So he was trying to kill himself, thought Penny to herself . To someone like her who didn't have enough life in the village where people looked down at her with hate and disgust, she wanted to live, to live and prove people wrong for how they perceived her and her mother .
She raised both her hands after dropping the bucket of milk she had collected from a cow that didn't belong to her family .
\"I don't know what happened but there are other ways to look at than jumping off the cliff,\" said Penny over the breezing wind .
The man didn't go to answer her and instead turned around not giving her an ear to listen to .
Penny panicked not knowing what else to do, she said, \"Oh, wait . I know you! You live next to my home, don't you? I am Penelope . You know there are a lot of things for which I could jump over a cliff but I heard someone say once you die, the pain carries along and it doesn't stop but only feels that much more . It is true,\" she leaned to her right to finally have him turn around .
\"How do you know about that?\" he finally spoke loud enough for her to be able to hear him . She tried remembering it before saying,
\"It was one of the priestesses in the church . I had gone to pray that day . She said that it is better to try resolving what you feel in this life than carry it . It is why the book to humanity written by the Gods tells us to wash our sins and pin in this very time than postpones by carrying it forward . \"
The man hadn't turned to jump and instead was facing her which was good, he slowly stepped down to where she was to ask her, \"Do you believe that the book of humanity was written by Gods?\" now that he was near, she could see the blood which was somewhat between black and red in color .
Did he kill someone?
