Violet was wrong. Gloria is dead.

She died from cardiac arrest. What I said has killed her.

I was lying down on my bed staring at the ceiling.

I was staring at the ceiling for several hours now.

I haven't stopped crying ever since we found out that Gloria died.

Violet cried too but she only cried for a few hours.

I heard the door open and then close.

I felt the mattress dip next to me.

"I'll be here for you. Always." Violet said.

I felt her wrap her arm around me. I rolled over and I was crying in Violet's chest. I wrapped my arm around Violet.

I tried to sleep but I couldn't. I wouldn't stop crying.

Even though I ran out of tears several hours ago I still cried.

I knew that I kept Violet up the entire night too but she didn't complain.

A few hours after the sun rose I finally stopped crying and I fell asleep.
