   Summary

   "It's all my fault."

    

    

   Cathy has gone through countless cycles, attempting to save Mark from what she did to him.
   And yet, nothing seems to work, for Mark is hopelessly unable to blame anyone other than himself.

   Just one more try. One more chance.
   No matter how many times she dies.

   She just needs to save him once. And so Cathy smiles, holding back her tears and carrying on.
   For this is what she needs to do. Because it's all her fault.

    

   Based on a theory I had from cycle 2 to mid-cycle 3, that Cathy was causing these time loops to occur.
