Yuki's POV
I kept walking closer to the crumbling edge of the rooftop, hearing the sounds of the city from afar. As a girl who was only eleven and in the sixth grade, who would have thought I was a crazy and suicidal girl with problems. Well, it's not as if I wasn't use to being called names.

Right when I was about to jump with a silent voice with silent tears, a voice called out to me. A voice of a boy. That boy was my savior who saved me from my fall.

He was my light and warmth... My everything.

"If I die... Then maybe this guilt will disappear along with me..." I mumbled, looking out into the endless night sky.

The night sky

The night sky... So beautiful. So beautiful and shiny like those stars kids would get for being good.

But... I knew that I would never be like a star. After all, I was a bad kid and no one likes a bad girl. I could never be like those stars up in that beautiful sky. For this is the time for the good kids to laugh at my face and call me names.

I dragged one foot over the edge of the building, anxiety building up. I closed my eyes and waited for myself to plunge myself to death.

'Goodbye world...'

"What do you think you're doing?"

"Eh...?" The ground before me broke, crumbling apart and falling along with my limp body.

Opening my eyes, I saw myself slowly falling over the edge. Was this what the teachers meant by 'My life felt like it just flashed before my eyes'? Maybe... Just maybe... Maybe I should have listened more to my teachers' story to how scary life flashing before your eyes is...

Tears fell from my eyes and into the night sky, joining the beautiful stars. I had actually felt fear for once of seeing how close the ground looked. How scary it would have been if I had fallen with my eyes open.

I screamed and screamed, but it was only for a quick second until I felt my body jerk to a halt from my fall.
