Scars

Chapter 2

I carefully stepped out of bed and went to the bathroom. I had to take my mind off of Mei. I searched for the razor. I slid it against my other arm. The pain it use to cause doesn't exist anymore. I'm used to this now. I watched as blood ran down and dropped onto the the sink. I bursted out laughing.

"AHAHAHAHA!"

I heard someone shuffling in the bed. But I didn't care.

Mei entered the bathroom, rubbing her eyes.

"Yuzu, keep your volume down it's morn-"

Her eyes widened at the sight of my bloody arms.

"What the hell?! What do you think you're doing to yourself?!"

"Oh don't worry! Here you should try it!"

"Please stop Yuzu! This can kill you!"

"You can't stop me!"

With that, I made another cut.

Mei came closer and kissed me. Her lips were soft and warm. I forgot how this felt. She may think I'll forgive her. When I really won't. She damaged me. I pushed Mei away.

"What the fuck? Don't just go kissing me out of no where!"

"It's the only way to make you stop."

"No. It isn't."

"This isn't you, Yuzu. Not the one I know."

"The one you knew is gone.  Now get away..."

"I understand if you need time to gather yourself again. I'll leave now."

Mei exited and went into the living room.

"I'm being too harsh.." I muttered.

{Mei's P.O.V}

I place my hand on my forehead.

"I need to rest for awhile.."

I panted, feeling a hot all of a sudden. 

{Yuzu's P.O.V}

Can't this all end?  Why did Mei come back..

Thoughts of Mei flooded my head.  A new one popped up.

What I'm experiencing in my life is all a lie.  We don't really exist.

I kept repeating it over and over again.  I didn't want to go yet.  I have people to live for.  My mom, Harumin, Matsuri, and...Mei.  I want her to be happy.  But she can't when I'm here to bring her down with my complaints.  I'm not sure about leaving.  It just can't end like this.

But I have to do it.  They'll be happier without me screwing things up.

I'm going to end it all. 

I left the apartment for the buildings roof.

{Mei's P.O.V}

I heard the door open.  I slowly lifted myself up from the couch and looked at the front.  Yuzu was standing there.

"Yuzu?"

No response.

I walked over to her and tapped her shoulder.

"Yuzu, where are you going?"

"I'm so sorry Mei..."

She took off running.  I'm not letting her go this easily again.  I ran after her.

"Wait!"

"Mei, please!"

We stopped at the building's roof.

"What..Are..You doi-"

Yuzu was standing on the railing.  She had a smile on her face.  That's been awhile since she's done that.

"Oh god, Yuzu.."

"This w-will be the end of my journey..."

"Get down!  You'll hurt mother if you this!"

"You guys don't need me anymore!"

"Stop this!  It's crazy!"

"Mei, I love you."

She jumped.

I ran to the edge and stared at the body.  Blood was surrounding Yuzu already.  This can't be happening.  This isn't reality.  I don't want to keep staring at her.  I want to be with Yuzu. 

I sprinted downwards, finally making it outside.  People were crowding, keeping their distance.  I knelt down, lifting Yuzu's head and placed it on my lap.

I don't even care if I'm covered in blood now.  I just lost my sister..Loud sobs ripped out from my mouth.  The ambulance came and took Yuzu's body away from me.  My sunshine was taken away from my life.  This is torture losing her.
