The End.
___
I gasped for air; it felt like I was drowning already. My thoughts were suffocating me as I shakily walked towards the water.
No one cares about you, Phil. We both know that.
I pulled at my hair, hoping that it might quieten my thoughts for just a second.
They don’t care about you; I doubt they would even notice you are gone. It would be better for everyone if you were dead.
“No, no, no, I don’t want to,” my tears streaked my face, adding to the water that was now at my feet. I looked down to the blood that was making its way down my legs.
You’re a burden to everyone. You just get in the way, you’re just a worthless piece of trash to them.
“Dan, loves me. I’m not a burden,” the thought of Dan puts a sinking feeling in my stomach.
He’s just too nice to leave, he feels sorry for you.
I took a deep breath before I walked further into the ocean.
You couldn’t even say goodbye in person. You texted him like the weak, useless, pathetic thing you are.
I stopped when the water started lapping at my thighs. I closed my eyes, letting the salt sting the fresh wounds. I looked back to the sand to where my phone sat.
He’s not coming to get you. He’s happy you’re finally doing it. Ending your worthless life, I mean we both know you’re just taking up space. He even knows where you are but you not worth his time, you never were, and he knows that, he always has.
I walked on letting the water creep up to my shoulders. I looked up to the sky; it blended seamlessly into the sea.
“I’m sorry,” my tears spilled over once again. “I’m so, so sorry,” it was barely a whisper this time. I was not sure who I was apologizing to. Dan? My family? Friends? The person who will find me? God? It’s only now that I realize that I was not only saying sorry to them but to myself. I had a life to live, but that would not last.
All you have to do is follow the waves. Imagine how free you will be.
The waves were getting rougher and harder to move against. I heard a lot of slashing behind me before I let the waves swallowed me.
My lungs burnt and I could no longer stand that well. My heart was racing as black crept into my vision .The waves pushed me back into something as I let myself go into the darkness.
I coughed, opening my eyes to find a man leaning over me. He was saying something, I couldn't hear him.
“Sir, can you hear me?” he questioned; it was muffled and I could only just make out his words. I nodded, not trusting my voice. I looked over to find Dan frantically asking questions as I was lifted into the vehicle by the man, I didn't have any time to protest before I fell back into the darkness.
