He's Psychopathic

Chapter 26

Cassidy's P.O.V

Honestly this reminds me so much of the time my dad died. The room was cold and empty. Kaleb laid unconsciously on the floor with pill bottles on the floor. He had called  telling me about his mother and half the call he was speaking gibberish and I tried to keep him talking while I went and got Katherine out of her sick bed. By the time we got here he was already unconscious and I was freaking out. Katherine was a crying mess and was at the far corner of the room crying in hysterics and pacing around. I stood above him with tears in my eyes. He couldn't tried to do what I'm thinking he's trying. It would have been too painful.

I pressed my finger against his neck shakily to see if he was alive. He was and I let out a sigh of relief.

"Is he dead?" She asks and I shake my head. I stared at his body and decided that calling the cops would be best. Katherine was doing fine with that. I was now crying because I knew how it feels to lose  parent. But I didn't wanted t end my life, maybe because I knew I had a mother but Kaleb-didn't have anyone else. And that right there Is a solid reason to end you're life. This reminded me of my father and the ache was back again. I cried for him and I cried for myself. I cried because my best friend was crying. Just to think that earlier he was happy and all we were about to visit Katherine when he left after a call with some nurse and then this. This day meant so much. It was the day I got back to school and the day a friend of mines tries to kill himself. It was about 10 o'clock and my mom would be worried sick if she notices that I wasn't in my room.

He looked so peaceful lying there. He never looked more peaceful. Maybe this is what he needs to be gone in paradise where he'd be with his mother. That's where his joy lies, with his mother. Maybe this was his faith, his destiny. Maybe he was meant to kill himself to be with his mother since prison was keeping them apart. Maybe just maybe this is how they get to be together. Tears streamed down my face and I could see the red lights through the window that the police and ambulance was here. I went and opened the door. I lead the cops to where Kaleb was leading and two paramedics came in with the stretcher. They lifted him up on it , while the police took up the pill bottle and the remaining pills on the ground and bagged them. He turned to Katherine probably about to question her but she was unable to and he turned to me.

"What happened?" He asks. Is he blind?

"He called and told me that his mother passed.." I stopped and took a deep breath," We came over and saw him. Passed out and his pill bottles on the floor." I finishes.

"Your name is?"

"Cassidy."

"Was he known as a person who would commit suicide?" He asks. What?

"No but he's diagnosed with PTSD so I guess so. His nurse is on the way." I said and he nodded. He walked out and I walked over to Katherine and gave her a hug. She was sobbing louder. She was never one to take bad news or sad things. Heck we could barely watch the ending of Titanic in peace. We watched the ambulance drove away but the officer stayed back. We didn't leave either. I might just sleep here too.

After a while a car pulled up and no doubt it was the nurse. I remembered her face and the nurse uniform gave that away too. She looked devastated and anxious. She was speaking to the officer and then she walked up to where Katherine and I was-who was now-asleep with her head on my shoulder.

"Hi you must be Cassidy. I'm nurse Anderson and I was wondering If you'd like to come to the hospital with me.?"

"Sure. I just have to take Katherine to bed." I answered and wake Katherine for her to walk inside.. There's no way I ca manage her to take her into the room. She woke up and I lead her half sleeping body to the Kaleb's bed and let her lay down. I kissed her forehead and covered her. I grabbed the keys and the locked the door on my way put. I got into Ms. Anderson car and we drove silently to the hospital, There was no need to talk. It was a sad night.
