I run as fast as my legs would take me. Snot pouring from my nose. Tears blocking my view. This cruel world had nothing to offer me. All that made me happy has now vanished.

I blink my eyes, trying to get the tears to go as I run. I let out a big breath as I make it.

I look down at the graves of my family. I get on my knees, starting to sob once more. I touch my mom's grave.

"I am so sorry, for constantly arguing with you. I know we had a argument before everything happened. Please forgive me. I don't hate you, I love you. I am so sorry I said such a thing." I whimper, tears streaming down my face.

Thunder could be heard in the distance. I look up at the grey sky. A drop of rain hits my face. I wipe it off with the sleeve of my jacket.

It then starts pouring. I can't find myself to get up and go find shelter. I had to say goodbye to my family, the proper way. I sit there on my knees and sob. I lean my head on my dad's grave.

"I know me and you had some fights, and I am sorry for giving you attitude all those times. I am sorry for everything. I'll keep our promise. I'll find someone who treats me like a queen. But I'll always be your little princess, no one can take that away daddy." I say, smiling through the tears.

I look over at my little brother's grave. I hug it. "You may have annoyed me all those times, but I still love you. I remember all those times when we would play dump trucks and bury eachother in the sand...You may have been little, but you were the best little brother a girl could ask for." I kiss the grave.

The rain drowned out my own tears. Rain and tears were mixing together, and I couldn't tell which was which. I then sit there, getting so angry.

Why? Why did it happened? I look up at the dark and loomy sky as thunder rumbles. The rain pelts my face as I stare at it.

"Why?! You did this!!!!" I scream at the sky, like it would reply.

Lightning strikes nearby. The lightning was so bright, another grave caught my eye. It was right beside my little brothers grave, laying on the ground.

What is it? I have no other brothers or sisters. No other person was there with me when the accident happened. It reads, "RIP to the beloved daughter of the Williams family, Nicole Rose Williams. 1996- ."

Wait that's me. I am not dead. I am alive. Why would they put that? Why doesn't it have a end date? I hear footsteps, squishing the cold wet grass.

I look up and see my bestfriend walking this way in a rain coat, with a umbrella. Her head is down, watching her footsteps. I see her eyes red and puffy. Why is she so upset?

"Makenzie!" I shout as I get up and run her direction. Can she not hear me? She hasn't even looked up. I finally make it to her, wrapping my arms around her.

She keeps walking and she walks...through me. How is this possible? She places a sunflower on all the graves except mine. That was their favorite flower. She looks at my grave lying on the ground, before walking away crying.

I'm dead... I'm really dead...
