I arrived at the roof top on a sunny Tuesday morning just before school started. I thought to myself believing this will be the day it'll all end but Just as I was about to take my shoes off of the rooftop there I see. is that a girl? I thought to myself. It was.. A girl with braided hair there before me. What the hell? This was my day! I shouldn't get involved with this. I don't even know her but despite myself I go and scream: "Hey! What are you doing?!" She doesn't answer me. Her leg suddenly lifts up, getting ready to jump. "Hey! Don't do it, please." She looked at me. She looked heartbroken. Why did I even get involved with this? Then I thought.. Whoa. Wait a minute... I paused. What did I just say? I don't even know this girl. But I guess I have to get her away so I can do my buisiness. I couldn't care less either way. Damnit.. to be honest I was somewhat pissed. My face scrunched up knowing that this was an opportunity missed!

The girl was still looking at me. But then the girl with braided hair told me her woes. She opened her mouth: "You've probably heard it all before" Her voice sounded soft but croaky. Now that I'm looking at her properly it looks like she's been crying. She laughs miserably and continues her sentence.
"I really thought that he may be the one" It was all silent for a minute. But then she broke down. "But then he told me he was done..." As soon as those words came out of her mouth, memories of my cheating boyfriend flood my mind. He had used me for selfish needs like money. I was so stupid.
...
I couldn't hold it in and shouted at her, "For god's sake please. Are you serious? I just can't believe that.." I was on the precipes of tears. But I continued either way. "For some stupid reason you got here before me!" Her eyes had widened as soon. As I said that. She was speechless. Why was she so upset?!

"Are you upset 'cause you can't have what you wanted?" She looked down, ashamed of herself. Until she mumbled to herself saying "I'm sorry" while backing away from the edge. I was so mad. But I felt so much pity for her at the same time. I sighed.. and so I finally said "You're lucky that you've never gotten robbed of anything." She smiled at me and hugged me. What was this? This feeling? "I'm feeling better thank you for listening." She says as she wipes the tears off her face. She finally let's go and walks away.

...

The girl with braided hair then disappeared.
