7.03 AM

I woke up as usual to get ready for school, even though I didn't felt well at all. It felt like a workout to get out of bed. My feet and hands felt so heavy, even heavier than yesterday.

I dressed up, fixed my hair and brushed my teeth. I wasn't hungry, but I knew that I had to eat breakfast, so I just ate a small sandwich. I really wasn't in the mood to eat, so it took me 10 minutes to eat that small sandwich.

Before I went to go I kissed my parents goodbye.
"Are you sure that you're okay with going to school today?" my mom said.
"Yes I am mom. Don't worry. I will be okay" I replied, even though I felt like I never would be okay again.
"Okay, but just call me if you don't feel well, okay?" my mom said.
"Yes mom, I will. Bye".

I am walking on the usual road that I always take when I go to the bus station, which consists of gravel. Beside the wavy road it's a big field. Me and my friends always have picnic there on the summertime were we eat yummy snacks and so on.

Suddenly my feet starts shaking and I can barely walk. I totally lose control. I can't think, I can't feel anything. Everything turns to black. Nothing.

My hands are grabbed on my backpack and I am happily walking to the bus station.
Me and Melissa always walk together to the bus station because we live very close to each other, but yesterday we texted and she wasn't feeling well, so I wasn't sure if she would come to school today. I also didn't wanted to call her and disturb in the morning because she was maybe sleeping.

It felt very lonely without her. Melissa is my other half and my life isn't complete without her. I was just walking alone on the road, without anyone beside me.
After a minute of walking I decided to call Melissa and ask if she would come to school today or not.
"Bip, bip, bip", no answer.

Usually Melissa answers very fast, even before I get to blink.
Maybe she is sleeping, so I ended the call, but she always answers, even though she is sleeping?

I am walking further until I see something from the distance of 30 meters. This can't be real. It's someone who is laying on the ground. I am scared, who is that? No, it-it-it's Melissa.

With the tears in my eyes I am running as fast as I can. What has happened? Why is my best friend laying on the ground?

While my hands are shaking of fear I am getting up my phone from my jacket to call Melissa's parents. I got their number and Melissa got my parents number if it ever would happen any kind of emergency, like now.

I am clicking on the power button but it doesen't work. Oh no, my phone is dead. Not now. Why now?

My phone is dead. How am I about to solve this? I don't care if I miss school now, my best friend goes first. I can't run to Melissa's house now either because it's too far away and I can't leave Melissa alone on the ground, just no.

From Melissa's jacket I see something black hang out. It's her phone.
"Yes" I say to myself very silent.
My amount of hapiness is higher,but it's still not high. I can't be happy when my best friend is laying on the ground like that. I am just shaking of fear and my tears are dripping down to the gravel road. Earlier I layed my hand on Melissa to check if she was breathing and she did. Luckily she still does.

I could barely lock her phone because of my shaking hands. Yes, we also know each others password and we also have each others touch ID on our phones.

I clicked further to her contacts to find her mom or dads phone number. The home number is the number I know except from her number, but their home-phone is broken. I am scrolling through the contacts but I can't find the numbers?

Can it even get worse? I just realized that Melissa know her parents numbers, so the numbers isn't in her contactlist.

Maybe I am able to call 911?
*Vibration sound*. Oh no, both our phones are now not working. Why now?

My hand is holding Melissa's tight and I won't let go of it. My tears are dripping and one tear came on her hand. One after one. A few seconds later and her hand is wet from my tears.
I took my other hand and drew a heart of the tears with my finger.
"Everything will be okay" I am saying to her with a shaking voice and tears in my eyes. Honestly, it's tears everywere.

I don't know what has happened, if she can hear anything, if she's hurted, nothing.

What am I going to do? No phone, no one.
