As she rises to the surface she hears the ringing of the phone in the phone box and cries "Oh, my God!" I've made a terrible mistake! She tries to swim to the edge but there is nothing she can do as the current is too strong, and she is dragged over the falls to her death !.

She was going to kill herself because she thought she was deaf (and could only hear the sound of rushing water)!. And when she heard the ringing realized that she wasn't!.

You really have me on this!. I don't know!.

Please tell me the answer!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

She wasn't upset because the phone rang, she was upset because she had just made a mistake and then she knew that jumping on the falls to end her life was also wrong, so, she tried to save herself but it was too late!.

Haha! Am i right!?

I have another guess!. She thought that the phone isn't working and she feels lonely because she has no coin to use to call somebody so she tried to end her life!. Suddenly, the phone rang, but she had no escape so she was upset and tried to go back desperately and answer the phone but she didn't make it!.!. Hahaha!Www@QuestionHome@Com

The person on the other end of the phone was her life, her love and she thought there was no chance with that person!. So with that thought, she wanted to die, but when she heard the phone ringing she realized she didn't need to kill herself!. Her life, her love and the person that means the most to her was still there, on the other end of the phone, giving her a second chance!. But yet, she jumped ship before she knew the boat wasn't on fire!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
