the next morning, ryan checks to see if there's any notifications on his phone, but finds none. he gets out of bed and goes downstairs to make breakfast.
"morning, mom." ryan greets his mother who's sitting at their counter, a concerned look on her face. "you okay?"
"ryan, you know that boy, brendon, your friends with?"
"y-yea, what about him?" ryan stutters.
"he passed away this morning. i'm so sorry." ryan freezes emotionlessly. "i'm so sorry." his mother repeats again, wrapping her arms around him. he feels numb, minus the tears streaming down his face.
"let go of me." ryan says finally. "don't touch me."
his mother backs away, sitting back down.
"i'm going to go up to my room, don't bother checking on me."
the tears make it hard to see, he feels dizzy and like he's about to pass out. he lays down on his bed to have some ground.
he checks his phone again to see the date. august 29th, one day until his 18th birthday.
