Kieran’s reason for attempting suicide was guilt. He felt it was the only way to atone for his mistakes. Combined with his disability, he believed he had no reason to live anymore.
Karina couldn’t hold back her frustration. “You want to end your life because of this? Do you know what I went through? Back then, I worked eight different jobs, trying to stretch twenty-four hours into forty-eight just to make ends meet!
“I couldn’t save up any money, and when I got sick, I couldn’t even afford to see a doctor. But I never once thought about giving up! So what right do you have to give up? Wake up!”
After venting her anger, Karina felt a sense of relief, while Kieran sat stunned, speechless.
His so-called "atonement"—dragging his parents along in a selfish act of escape—wasn’t truly an act of redemption. It was just another form of avoidance.
“If you really feel guilty about what you’ve done to me, then live,” Karina continued, her voice calm but firm. “I don’t need you to do anything for me. Just stay alive.”
Kieran’s eyes went blank for a moment as if he was processing her words. Then, his entire demeanor collapsed. “You’re right. I’m sorry. It’s all my fault.”
After he promised never to harm himself again, Karina left the room.

Mr. and Mrs. Stone spent months in the hospital recovering.
Although Karina had saved them, she didn’t check in on them afterward. When they eventually learned that she was the one who performed their surgeries, they felt deeply ashamed. But by the time the news reached Karina, she barely reacted.
That was true closure—when thinking about someone felt as indifferent as thinking about a stranger.
As for how the Stones treated Kieran who nearly got them killed, Karina didn’t bother finding out. Just as Kieran had said, she had no intention of returning to that family or being involved in their lives anymore.
