"Keiona, you good?" I opened her room door. She was holding a knife to her throat. "W-What are you doing?"
"I have to do this" She turned to me with tears in her eyes.
"Do what?!"
"It was my fault"
"Put the knife down" I walked slowly to her.
She put it closer to her throat. "I have to do this"
"Keiona, why are you doing this?"
"It was my fault my father has cancer!"
"It wasn't your fault, he hide it from us. Do not end your life because of this. What are gonna do when your mother has to grieve your death?"
"She will be happy after. You will take care of her"
"Kieona please-"
"I'm sorry, I have to do this" She grabbed the bottle of pills, swallowing it and slashed her throat.
"MAUREEN! MAUREEN!"
"Yes, Yes dear" She looked scared and looked on the floor.
"I will tell you after. Please call the ambulance" I said quickly.
She dialed the number. The ambulance arrived fast and drive to the hospital. They told us to wait outside.
"Monique, what happened?!"
"She said she wanted to kill herself because it was her fault that Edmund got cancer. I tried t-to stop her but she wouldn't listen" I cried.
"She was gonna commit suicide?"
"Yes" I said.
She stayed silent. I started to saw tears formed in her eyes.
"T-This is too much. I-I'm gonna go outside and take some air"
"Okay" I sat down on one of the chairs and rubbed my belly.
God, what's happening to this family?
I don't know what to do anymore.
