Eren was headed to Sarah's. The sun was setting at the horizon. The sky was partially dark. There was a gentle breeze. The shadows danced. Eren looked up at the sky and smiled. It was nice. At least their was someone beauty, other than Sarah, in the world.
He couldn't wait to get to Sarah's. He needed someone to talk to. He trusted her.
Eren stopped as he noticed flashing red and blue lights at the corner of the block, close to his only friend's house. He ran towards the lights.
He froze in shock as he saw an ambulance parked outside of Sarah's house. He then ran up to a familiar face.
"M-Mr. Troy! W-hat happened?!" Eren asked in a panic.
"I... I don't know..." his teacher replied.
"Tell me what happened." Eren grabbed a hold of Mr. Troy's shirt collar and got in his face. "TELL ME!!" he screamed.
"I went to check on her, to see how she was doing, a-and.... I...." Mr. Troy stuttered.
Eren shook his teacher. "WHAT?!"
"I-I found her on the living room floor. There was an empty bottle of whisky on the coffee table next to her, along with a few bottles of painkillers and anti-depressants. God, there was blood all over her...." explained Mr. Troy.
Eren's eyes grew wide. They filled with tears. He let go of the teacher's shirt, then he took a few steps back before falling to his knees. He plopped his elbows on them, then dropped his head into his hands. He began to ball his eyes out.
The ambulance drove off at fall speed headed to the hospital that had just released.
"NOOOOO!!!!" Eren yelled, crying. "NOOOOO!!!!"
He kicked a fence, ignoring the pain.
"God damn it!!! Why did she do it?! WHY?!?!"
Mr. Troy put a hand on Eren's shoulder.
"I'm so sorry...." he mumbled to him.
Eren turned around and headed back to his house.
