A fresh breeze, a golden sunset and the sound of children playing greeted Micheal as he climbed out his bedroom window. He inhaled an earthy scent and looked down at the bed of roses right below him.
His toes curled against the edge of the windowsill as he kept his back pressed to whatever glass made contact with him.

"So.. you want me to..."
"Yes. I want you to jump."
"But I'll die!"
"Don't you dare tell me you haven't actually thought about killing yourself. I know you have, Micheal. I am literally in your head."
"I mean.. what's the point in living anymore anyways? You've driven everyone you love away and no one will come even within two feet close to you."

Micheal fell silent, resisting any urge to scream his lungs out. Instead, he started laughing like some mad man.
"You're right! My god, you're right!"

And that's when.. he got the uncontrollable urge to jump.
He looked down, his eyes glossed over before he let go of the wall and fell forward.
A little girl saw him plumit to his death and let out a scream.
People scrambled to get their phones to call for help, but it was too late.

Micheal fell into the bed of roses...
And dissappeared like he never existed in the first place.
