Sally's Sister Sarah

Visiting Sally

Sarah stared down at the headstone, her vision blurred with tears. Shes crying because Sally's gone. She crying because life isn't as happy as it used to be. She's crying because she's lonely. Sarah has been suspended for punching Leah. Her parents are annoyed at her even though they don't understand. No one does, expect Sally did. They would talk and share secrets with each other. They would comfort each other.

Sarah places down a bouquet of pink flowers down in front of the tombstone. Sally's favourite colour was pink. Sarah sat down in front of the tombstone and started talking. She started opening up about her worries and let all the emotions she kept in her mind out. She believes that Sally can hear her, even if she is dead. Sarah can feel it.

i wish you were still here sally...

Sarah thought she could hear giggling.

I wish i could play with you one last time Sally

The giggling gets louder.

i wish i knew who did this to you...

The giggling turns into laughter, insane laughter. Sarahs fists clench until she's digging her nails into the palm of her hand. It hurts. It hurts a lot. This is nothing compared to what Sally must of felt though? My feeling are nothing compared to what she must if felt before she died right?

Your nothing...

Sarah has a sick feeling to her stomach. That voice... The sick voice that keeps her up at night, the voice that causes her stress. Grief. Guilt.

You aren't real!
But you are

What do you mean...
You are real and i am you and you are me

Sarah started running away from Sally's grave.

Go away...
No

GO AWAY!
NO

Sarah falls to her knees infront of another grave she looks up, her vision still blurred, and realises this is uncle Johnny's grave. Suddenly, Sarah's mind starts racing. She burries her head in her hands and starts hyperventilating. A horrific scene plays through her mind.

Sally is there in the park on the ground. Uncle Johnny is there on top of her. His hands.... One is holding a belt, the other is on her sisters body. Sally was beaten to death. By a belt. By uncle Johnny....

Sarah starts screaming and rain from the sky above pours down onto her. More horrific scenes of sally being raped and beaten play through her mind, faster then a fight scene during a movie. She clutches uncle Johnny's grave tight until she rises her head and stares at his name printed onto the headstone, cold and hard. She's numb for a moment before suddenly something snaps in her fragile mind. The world blurs and all Sarah can see is red. The sky is red and the ground is red. The trees, the graves and her knuckles are red. Then everything turns black.

Sarah snaps out of whatever just happened to her. She stares down at her knuckles. Her knuckles are destroyed she can see the bone through the thin flesh now covered in crimson blood. The bone is cracked and causing her a unbearable amount of pain. There is blood on her uniform, on the ground and as looks away from the ground, she sees blood on uncle Johnny's headstone. Sarah broke it. No, Sarah destroyed the headstone. The sides of the headstone are broken and falling apart, huge endless cracks make the words printed onto the stone illegible.

I did this...
Yes you did

How...
What do you mean how...

I'm not capable of this...
Yes you are

YOU DID THIS!
I am you

You're a liar...
So are you...

IM YOU AND YOU ARE ME

The lights in the A&E are dim but the light being shone into Sarah's eyes is blinding. Sarah passed out at the grave but a lady visiting her dead husband found her and called 911. Everyone thinks thought that Sarah was attacked but it will only be a matter of time before people realise she did the damage to the grave. With her own bare hands. Sarah's parents didn't answer any calls from the hospital yet. They must be at work right now, not that Sarah even cares right now.

Sarah stares down at the bandages wrapped around her knuckles. The blood from her wounds kept seeping through the bandages so they had to keep adding on a thicker layer to stop it. Her hands felt like they were being crushed by the bandages but its Bearable, for now.

Suddenly Sarah hears a faint yet fillmilar voice call out to her from the hospital bed nearby. A female voice. A friends voice.

Leah: Sarah? What happened to you?
