I thought her life was going great until... She said that she was alone, afraid, filled with remorse. I reached over and touched her hand, and then I saw blood on my hand. I then shrieked and felt shivers down my spine. I realized why blood was in my hand; she had been cutting herself. I asked her why she has been cutting herself, her response was, "I was afraid of all the stress I have gone through. I felt so depressed I could barely handle myself." I asked her, "You have depression?" She said, "Yes, I do. I suddenly had the urge to die alone because nobody loves me." I suddenly felt like tears were going to fall out of my eyes, holding them back as soon if I could, but I couldn't. I cried in front of her as she turned around for a second, then came back to hug me. I then stopped. I noticed there was a knife in her hand and I backed away. I told her to give me the knife so I could throw it in the river. She said fine. My mouth dropped in terror as I was surprised that this was happening to her. Lilianna had to leave and I gave her a hug goodbye and I hoped to see her again. The one thing she told me before she took off as she yelled in excitement, saying, "I love you!" I felt in high spirit as I never had a girl loved me before, nor did one say that she liked me. I felt so happy that I could see her again the next day. I would come to make her happy every step I could take to do so!
