12 Reasons To Die

2. The boy on the news

I wake up to the rays of the sun shining in my face. It was Sunday. Another day of crying and nothing in particular. I unplug my phone from it's charger and check to see if there's any notifications. There's only one from my father.

It reads: Decided to stay in a hotel for the weekend outside of town.

That was it. Nothing more. Why were my parents like this? They didn't love me that's why. I don't remember a single time when they showed affection towards me. I roll my eyes and groan placing my feet on the carpet and padding downstairs.

I sit on the couch and begin thinking of what to do today. Cut? No I did that last night. Cry? I don't have anymore tears. I decide to turn on my television. The first channel that turns on is the News so I just watch that.

Natural disasters, weather, a new grocery store being built. None of it interested me, that is until a new story came on.

Teen suicide across the U.S. has increased by 29% in the past year. We talked to local teens about what they know and what they think of the shocking news.

The camera goes to a teenaged girl around 17. She looks average, nothing special about her. The news anchor asks, "What are your thoughts of the increasing suicide rate in teens?"

The girl smiles as if she's only doing this for fame. "Well personally if anyone at my school or anyone who knows me is having suicidal thoughts then come to me and we can talk it out! Don't be shy." She smiles again as if what she just said will cure all of the depressed teenagers in the world.

"I think that suicide is extremely serious and anyone who has such thoughts should seek professional attention." Another girl says who doesn't even look like she's a teenager.

I almost turn off the TV of boredom and people's lack of knowledge when an attractive guy shows up. "Suicide is something that everyone jokes about. But those who don't experience hurt in their own lives don't understand that these thoughts or feelings are real. They're uncontrollable. They want them gone and everything to be better but it's near impossible." He says with a serious and stern face. He knows what he's talking about.

I want to know who this guy is but I need to know. His name, ironically, appears at the bottom of the screen as I read it out loud, "Harry Styles."
