She can't swim.
I'm standing here terrified, watching my best friend drown. Why couldn't I move? I was frozen still. She told me she would do it, but I didn't believe her. She always talked about how she was upset, depressed, even. But, I didn't believe her. Now, I'm standing here, watching her slowly die. Why was I acting so calm now? I'm remembering all of our memories together. Our first crushes, our first breakups, we talked through it all. We would always cry to one another, I thought I was making her feel better, I thought she was happier. I thought wrong. So as I remember our greatest memories one last time, I jumped into the water, drowning alongside with her.
