She closed her compact mirror, and sighed. Phoebe Goran couldn't believe what she had just done. She and her friends had just blown off her boyfriend of two years. She felt terrible. She tried to be polite about it, and they had been dating for two years. He would always have a special place in her heart, but it just wasn't going to work out. He wasn't going to college with Phoebe, and she thought it would be best of they weren't together during that time. She wanted him to have the opportunity to date other people.
Phoebe had had her friend, Stacy, tell him. Stacy had always been able to come right out with what was on her mind, even if it came out on a mean way.
He had always said that he couldn't live without Phoebe. He was the first person Phoebe had loved truly, and she had only wanted the best for Zeenan.
She put Zeenan out of her mind and headed back into The Suds, their usuall hangout. She just wanted one more night out before she went off to college.
She woke up to the phone ringing. She rolled over and saw that it was 6:00 am. She wondered who would be calling at this time if day.
Phoebe could hear murmurs from the next room. Her mother had answered the phone. She struggled awake and could tell by her mothers muffled tone that it was terrible news.
She was wide awake now an on her feet. She found her mother in the kitchen, just as she was hanging up the phone.
"Mum, what's wrong? What's going on?" Phoebe asked, tears rolling down her face. What if it was her father, or her brother?
"It's Zeenan. He shot himself."
All thoughts stopped. Phoebe hear her mother scream and then everything went black.
