There's no light without shadows

Chapter 3

I got out of the car and walked to the bridge. I looked around and noticed no one was here. Without any emotion, but fear of what might happen, I walked to the edge. I passed my legs over the bridge's girder until I was steps away from falling. I was going to end it all.

"I should jump. I can die instantly and no one will notice it."

I was really next to the edge of the bridge, one more step and I will fall and die.

"I lost everything! Everyone will leave me the same way my parents did. I can't live anymore like this. Three years, and here is where ends."

Thinking that I had lost all that I ever loved in this word started a fight in my head. It was better that I accepted what was really happening to me. I was going crazy.

"I'm not crazy. It's just the truth."

"The truth.." I whispered

I was hesitating.

Should I do this?

Is this really the end for me?

Is there really no way out?

"They are not coming back to life! Dying is the only thing that I can do to be with them! To be with mom!"

"Mom." I whispered.

I looked bellow and saw the fall. The river below me looked far away. It was clear, and it looked nice enough to swim. If mom were alive and saw this river she would want us to enjoy it.

She'd like that...

I was taking the other step to jump. I hated myself for not being strong enough to just do it. At least I wouldn't see sad faces around me anymore. I kept thinking about how empty I was. No one would feel as empty as I felt until they lose their parents.

I couldn't hold it in anymore...

"Three...two...o-"

"Amy stop!" A familiar male voice snapped, interrupting my countdown. I looked around searching for someone, but no one was there, I was all alone.

"Don't do it Amy! You have great potential to do amazing things. Don't jump!"

I jumped over the girder and moved to the center of the bridge.

"Where are you?" I said loudly and looked around me, getting scared of what was happening.

"Shut up Feathers! You're breaking the rules!" A female voice snapped.

"Who are you?" I was getting really scared of these voices. I ran directly to the car and started it.

"I wasn't letting her jump off the bridge! I'm here to save her!" He snapped.

"That should have been the end of her pain! And I don't give a shit about your job! You're breaking rules!" She snapped back.

"Suicide is not the solution to this and I don't care at this point! You were breaking them too!" He started shouting at her.

"Why don't you shut up and do what the rules say?" She asked.

"Stop." I said to myself and pounded my head with my fist. I felt tears forming in my eyes. The voices were getting worse and worse. I wasn't sure what was going on.

"I am! I was sent here to save her from you." He told her.

"And I was sent here to show her the reality of her life and not the fantasy you wanted her to see."
