Too Late

Scarlet dropped the rock and held the note. She paused before stuffing the note in her pocket and quickly grabbing her coat. She skateboarded to Amy's house which was only a block away. She arrived at the house.

Scarlet ran up stairs to Amy's room. No one was home. Her mom was working late and her brother and sister were with their aunt for the week. Scarlet quickly opened the door to Amy's bedroom.

There Amy was, hanging above her desk, a rope around her neck, her arms cut opened, her legs covered with blood streaming down her legs. She was too late. Too late. Scarlet dropped to her knees and cried. Screaming and putting her hands in her face. Too late. Too late.

Scarlet didn't do anything to the body for police reasons. She just sat in the door frame, looking at the body, crying, not knowing what to do. She decided to call Amy's mom. She went over to the home phone of the Darwinges house, and dialed the hospital number. The woman that always sat on the fronts desk, voice came on the phone.

"Hello this is the North City Hospital, how may I help you?" the lady said. "Can I please speak to Carol Darwinges?" Scarlet asked. "Who is this?" the lady asked. "This is Scarlet Lidly calling from Ms. Darwinges house. Can I please speak to her?" scarlet explained. The lady handed the phone over.

"Yes, Scarlet? What's going on where's Amy is she ok?" Carol, Amy's dear widow mother asks. That's when Scarlet started to ball. "Scarlet, what happened?" Carol asked in a worriedly voice. "Just come home. Bring the police with you. Hurry just please come." Scarlet said looking in the halfway opened bedroom door, looking at the face of 16 year old Amy Darwinges.

The police and Amy's mother arrived quickly after their little chat. "What's going on? Where's Amy!" Ms. Darwinges asks so many questions in a frightened voice. Scarlet walked upstairs followed by Carol and the two police officers. She opened the bedroom door wide open and cried. "NO NO NO!" Amy's mother, dear dear Carol, screamed looking at the body.

Scarlet couldn't believe her best friend had just killed herself. She couldn't believe any of it. She was hoping it was a dream, but no, not a dream for sure. It got worse after that and that kind of luck, followed her all the way to the end of this sad sad story.

Scarlet, was defiantly, not going to be alone.
