The final destination.

Amber
-3 years later-

My phone rang and i stared at the unknown number. Should i answer it? I mean, it might be a prank?

Or maybe its something important.

I answered the call. "Hello? Who is this?"

"Amber. Its Enzo." I shivered. Its been 8 years since i've last heard his voice. What do they want from me now?

"O-oh. What can i do for you?" I asked and he stayed quiet.

"I need you to come here." He gave me the address and hang up.

He gave me Actaeon's old address.

I gulped.

As i stand in front of Actaeon's house, i shivered as i see the yellow tapes of "caution" around the house. What happened here? Did Actaeon killed someone and got caught?

"Lets talk." I turned around and i saw Enzo. He looks older and sad. What happened to him? Why is he so sad?

With his red eyes from crying, dark circles under his eyes and a frown, there was no doubt that he's sad.

I nodded, following him as we go at the back of the house where there's a lake and a few coffee tables and chairs. I still remember this place. I used to come here all the time.

He sat on the chair and i sat across him. "So. What am i doing here?" I asked him and he stayed quiet, his eyes a bit watering.

"Enzo?" I called out and he sighed. "H-he's gone." He stuttered and i stared at him confused.

"W-what?"

"He's dead Amber. He committed a suicide a few days ago." as soon as i heard that, my world collapsed.

He's gone.

My eyes waters, holding onto the arm chair really tight.

He's dead.

"H-how?" I stuttered. The tears soon began falling from my eyes, uncontrollably.

"He shot himself in the head." Enzo says and he grabbed a zip lock from his pocket that contains a bullet that has a faded blood stains and a letter with blood stains.

I grabbed it with shaky hands and i opened it, looking at the long bullet that has my name engraved on it.

'Amber'

I gulped, opening the letter.

'I wrote your name on the bullet so everyone would know you were the last thing that went through my head'

I sobbed, uncontrollably. "W-w-why... W-why would he.." I couldn't complete my sentence. what he said was completely bolt out of the blue.

He's dead. Actaeon's fucking dead.

Like he's not breathing the same air anymore kind of dead.

And i couldn't be more mournful.
I lost him. For real.

I hiccuped continuously, as my hands shake besides me, tears fell down more and more, my sadness and my love flowing down through my tears.

The atmosphere changes. Knowing that he's gone, it felt like half of me was gone too.

He was my other half. And now he's gone.

He's fucking gone.

"Oh God he's gone.." I whispered as i hug the letter that he wrote.

Enzo sighs, grabbing my hand and holding it tightly as he tries to comfort me. "Im sorry." He whispers.

Im sorry too.

"He was a bad guy on the outside. But he was real. He was a great brother, a great friend, a great leader, and a great lover." Enzo says at his eulogy for Actaeon's funeral.

"He's the type of person that will do everything for the one he loves. He's a strong man. I used to envy him. I thought, how can he be so strong after all that he's been through? But then i remembered what he told me back when i lost my brother. He said 'there will be days when all you can do is breathe. And thats okay.' I wish i could have told him the same thing. He was going through so many damn things and i guess he just cant take it anymore. I lost another b-brother. I hope he's happy now though. That he's okay. Not suffering anymore." I cry silently as i look at Enzo with tears in his eyes.

"I just feel sorry for him though. Wherever he is, I'm sure there's no alcohol in there." He says and i chuckled with the rest, taking off a small amount of sadness that i had in me.

Enzo moved out of the mic and i smiled sadly at him, giving him a hug which he responded with a tight hug.

"It will be okay." I whispered and he chuckles. "Yeah. It will." He whispered and there was a long pause.

"We're both are lying. Are we?" He murmurs and i smiled against his chest.

"Yeah."

The end.
Thank you for everything.
And I'm sorry for your lost.
