Him (A "Larry" Short Story)

-louis-

when i awoke in the hospital, i was confused, but i knew what had happened. i had failed. i failed committing suicide. failed reuniting with my husband. i don't understand. i had everything planned out. why didn't it work? the door to the room opened, mum entered, carrying my baby. i looked away. "louis tomlinson, look at me!" mum yelled, so i did. "i'm not gonna ask why did you try killing yourself, because i know why. i just want you to know how selfish you are." i looked at her in disbelief. "how am i selfish?" mum shushed bailey as he started to cry. "louis, i know harry is gone, and i know that it's hard, but what about everyone else who loves you? who cares for you? losing harry was hard on us all. we all lost him. losing you too would be unbearable. think about us louis, your family who loves you very very much. think about your son, louis. what about him? think about him!"
