Ive always wondered, what is the meaning of life?      Why do us monsters who are so called humans live? Why were we created? What is our life's purpose? Thoughts like those are always running, endlessly in my mind.  Day and night, thoughts like those dance, sing, talk... Maybe...just maybe... I will find an answer, and stop the dancing thoughts. One day they will get exhausted...  "Archer!! Helllloo??? Someone home??" I escape my mind and turn to face Elaine, my best friend. "Huh, sorry..."

She sighs and looks up at the sky. "You really are so weird, heh it's a good thing...well for you, unlike idiot over there" she says sarcastically pointing at Aspen, my other best friend, aka her bf. "I HEARD YOU YA KNOW?" Aspen yells out, jogging towards us. Elaine giggles "Sorry hun, I'm just stating the obvious" Aspen grabs her face, putting it up close to his "Look at you being smart with me" He smirks and starts attacking her face with small pecks. She grabs his arms and laughs.

I stare at them in awe... 'maybe.. their life's purpose was to find each other' I smile. I stand up and begin walking away. "Hurry up lovebirds, we have to catch the bus soon" i say putting my hands in the air and slightly shaking them. "Don't leave us Archer!!!" I turn my head and see them jogging towards me. I smile... 'I wonder...when will it be my turn'

                                              🌿

"And then I jumped him" Aspen says to putting his hands to a fist. "Oh my, why are you like this..." Elaine says face palming. We just got out off the bus. I shake my head, 'god, what am I gonna do with these idiots' I look around, admiring the orange sky. I spot a park near a river. "Hey guys, let's head over to that park near the river" I semi shout, stopping my tracks. They stop shouting at each other and look over at the park. "Hm, why not! Ivy is gonna be staying out late. So more free time for us!!" She shouts putting up a peace sign.

Ivy is Elaine's older sister, she's the one who's taking care of us. We lost our parents 4 years ago. Ivy was nice enough to take me and Aspen in. "Oh right, WOHO!!!" Aspen then begins running to the park. "HEY WAIT UP" Elaine yells out sprinting to catch up. I shake my head once more, and walk over to the park. As I get closer, I notice a tall figure standing on a big bridge. "Hey guys, I'll be back" I say to Aspen and Elaine before jogging towards the bridge. "Huh, wonder what's that all about.." Aspen whispers in a confused tone. "Yeah..maybe we should follow him, we don't know this park and he could get lost" "Yeah, let's go" Aspen gets up from the bench and walks with Elaine.

The more closer I get, the more the figure looks like a person.  I think im almost there.. I stop my tracks once I finally get a clear view. It's a short girl, with wavy long hair, tho I can only see her back. I take a few steps closer, It looks like she's wiping her tears...no..she wouldn't possibly be thinking of jumping... I take a few more right before I stop, I see her taking a step closer to the edge. 'Fuck...shes going to jump..what should I do..should I yell out to her? Ignore her? No that would be the worst solution.

I need and want to save her.' I look down, many different thoughts racing around.. I snap back to reality, remembering what is happing right now. I look up. In a fast glance...I see her take off her jacket and hat and slip off the bridge. My heart is pounding. I'm scared. What should I do....
