Sara held onto Eric tightly as he tried to help out of her predicament, but no matter how hard she felt him try, there was no difference in the fear. Looking back, she felt a sharp pain of regret as she looked back at the incoming ice. The thought terrified her, but she wants to at least be safe. Her fear was gone, and there was only regret. Looking at Eric desperately trying to help, she put a gentle hand to his muscular arm. "Eric, stop", she softly told him. "It's all going to be okay. Let me go", she continued. The crackling of the ice getting closer to them. "There is no other way. Let me go", she repeated, forming a sad, painful face. The ice got even closer to her, just a few inches away. "I love you, Eric. More than anything, but it has to be this way. Let me go", she grew stern and desperate.
