When the Rain Falls /D.H/

I felt

Dan

My alarm went off reminding me that today I had to go to work. I closed my eyes tightly, pressing the snooze button and pulling the cover over my head. I released the blanket and let it cover my half naked body. I let my body relax again and I fell back asleep.

There was a knock on my bedroom door. I got out of bed, still tired, and I saw her. Bree was right in front of me. I could hardly breathe. I hugged her tightly and cried into her shoulder. I went to kiss her....

Beep. Beep. Beep. I woke up this time, squeezing my pillow. I started to cry. I miss her so much. I know it's been 6 months. I could have stopped what happened to her. If only I got there sooner. She wouldn't be lying in the hospital. My mind keeps racing and I can't take it. I am physically falling apart. My breath is still hitched.

I get out of my bed slowly and make it to the closest. I chose i black shirt with a white circle on it and my favorite pair of grey sweatpants. I grab grab an apple and eat it on the way out. I walked to Coasta and went to the back to sign in. I decided to get a summer job to help pay for college this year.

After signing in, I make my way to the register. Like everyday, I take people's orders for about 9 hours and clean tables. When 9 horrific hours are up, I go home and sleep.

It doesn't even feel like I am living in this body. It feels like I am on a constant loop, and there are strings attached to my limps, making me not able to control the next thing that happens to me.

When it finally hits 16:00, I go clock out and walk back to my flat. I decided that tonight I was going to order a cheese pizza.
