I chuckled
"Emmit stop joking, that's not funny. Where's your sister?" I said
The sobs grew louder
There was silence
"She killed herself" I heard him whisper "She killed herself last year"
That was a punch to the gut, but I still didn't believe it
"Emmit just quit it, it's not funny" I said
The sobs became quiet after a moment
"Alright Emmit. Funny joke, now where is she?" I asked him
There was silence for a minute before a ragged sigh
"She's gone, Sarah killed herself last year on her birthday" I heard him say in between sobs
I froze, he wasn't kidding. I just said he was lying to his face. My friend, my best friend, my sister, my girlfriend...... she was gone and I just told her brother I thought he was lying and didn't take him seriously.
