In Your Eyes ↦ Lauren/You

Chapter 40

Lauren's POV

After we got an emergency call, we immediately rushed at the place where we can see a man standing on the edge of the rooftop. The rescue team set up a huge inflatable thing on the location where they calculated the possible and exact spot where the man will land, if ever he jumps.

"Harry, Lauren. You two get that man down before he commits suicide." Ty comanded then Harry and I sprinted to the very top of the building.

"Seriously, I'm going to die this time! Don't come near me!" The man shouted when he saw that Harry and I are making our way to
him.

I cam recognize the man's face. He was the same guy who wanted to commit suicide, four months ago. He was about to jump from the window of his apartment on the tenth floor, but I convinced him not to kill himself. Now, he's here on the edge of the rooftop. Trying to kill himself again.

"I said I'm going to die so don't come near me! I want to end my life!" He yelled again and his back is facing the guys downstairs.

"Mister, you remember me don't you?" I slowly inch to him. And his eyes widen when he realized who I am.

"Oh, oh you! Is there any other rescue worker but you in this town? Stay away from me! I don't like you! I'm not going to get trick by you this time. I'm really going to jump off this building and die." The man said, trying to convince himself that he really wanted to end his life. It looks like he's also scared to die. He just like the thought of jumping off the building but I can see that he got no courage in to do it. "I'm really going to die!" He yelled again but he's trying to maintain his balance when a huge wind blows and he almost fell off the building.

"Sir, it's really dangerous. Just hurry up and come down." I told him and added, "If you have any problem in your life, I'm willing to listen to you. Just don't jump. There's always a solution to your problem. It may not end now and you feel like it's better if you will die, but trust me, it's not, because you're a coward if you run off of your problem." The man who's standing on the edge of the rooftop, he looks like he changes his mind. His face softens and I can feel like he wanted to come down. "So just come down. It doesn't seem like your life doesn't go in your way but trust me on this, everything will be okay. And everything will go in your way, just the way you like it." Harry pats my shoulder, silently telling me that I did a good job on talking to the guy.

"You know, this shouldn't be a monthly event. Let's go down, okay?" Harry stretches his arm so the man can grab it but the wind started to blow so hard again. Making the man mainting his balance. "It's windy. So let's just stop this because it's so dangerous here!"

"You're right, it's really dangerous here, isn't it?" The man asked us and we nodded our head vigorously then Harry and I said yes, in unison.

The guy who wanted to commit suicide, he was about to grab Harry's hand and go down when the wind started to blow so hard that made the man slip his foot on the edge. And before he fall down on the building, I grab his leg and Harry wraps his arms around my waist, preventing the two of us to fall. "Save me! Don't let go of me! I still want to live! Please don't let go of me!" The man cries out and I can feel us slipping and falling down.

We screamed in fear and the next things I now, I'm hitting a soft object making my body bounce back and Harry's head hitting my back.

We were rushed in the Emergency Room in the Miami hospital and it's a good thing that Niall and Cameron was the one who check up on me. I just got a small scratch on my forehead and other than that, the doctors wanted me to take a rest from working.

They informed Ty on what happened and he looks so worried on Harry and I. I don't know where the man who wanted to die went. But I'm thankful that the three of us are safe and no one got hurt really bad.
