Hamilton Bullet Stories

06

Person A is known to have depression, but has never gone so far as to attempt suicide. One night after an alarming 'goodbye' text to Person B, they run to their house to find the door locked. After finally managing to get in (this can be decided by the writer) they eventually find Person A collapsed, only half conscious with an empty bottle of pills in their hand. Person B, not having time to call poison control or 911, tries to get Person A to throw up the pills.
