The letter.

   Lydia got home around 2:00. When the sun was the highest in England and it was sorta warm. She put up the groceries and made a way for her to sit on the couch. She opened the letter. It was time to know the truth. Her eyes started to tear up when she saw Hey Lydia, in Sam's handwriting. She could not do it. She was not ready to think of Sam. She put it on the coffee table. She just starred at the table.

She looked up to see Sam standing there. "Why didn't you come for me?" Lydia got up. She started choking on air. "This is not real." Sam punched the wall. "Dammit Lydia wake the Fuck up! Not everything is about you. You gotta face it whether you like it or not! You ignored my call!" "No I didn't!" Lydia covered her ears. "Lydia look at me! I am dead because you wouldn't answer the phone! YOU KILLED ME!" The screams started getting louder and louder. YOU KILLED ME!! Echoed in Lydia's head. "I'm sorry Sam. I'm so sorry." She slid down the wall and sat on the floor. She was crying. Sam disappeared. Lydia cried out. She murdered Sam. Lydia grabbed the letter. "Read it!" The voices came back. "Read it Dammit!" They were getting louder as she was opening it up.

   Hey Lydia,
Thanks for telling at me. Thanks for reminding me what my dad did to me was my fault. I know you were mad and drunk. But, you did it. You won. You happy? Anyways... I got into some trouble again. James tried to warn you. You, of course, wouldn't listen. Just because you're jealous of our relationship doesn't give you the right to bash on him. He's trying for me so be happy for me. For once in your pathetic life, stop paying so much damn attention to yourself. Grow up! Ok. I love you. Trouble I got into was with these guys. They sold me some pills, long story short, I owe them money. They are after me. Of course by the time you get this I will be long gone. You will be in London living your dream and I will be worn food. You were right I am no good. Just like my mom. Thank you for trying though. I gotta end this before they get to you. They just want me dead. I'm saving you because I do love you. AND care for you. Stay safe.
       Love Sam.

   Lydia felt like a total douche. That night before she died Lydia and Sam got into it. It was about James. He continuously cheated on Sam. And hit on Lydia. Lydia tried to look out for her but she would not listen. So... Lydia gave up. Sam ran out in front of the truck while the guys were chasing her. She only wanted to keep Lydia safe from harm. Lydia would rather be dead. She laid in the floor and cried herself to sleep.
