Last month my parents died in a car crash. The effect has emotionally and physically tore me apart. I have been diagnosed with depression and is forced to go to school. They think it will help me. All I can think about is my mom and dad. I live with my grand parents now. They do their best to get me out of bed and outside but despite all their efforts in completely miserable. They tell me we have my parents in my memories and that we never truly lose them but those words are never enough. That's doesn't bring them back or take the pain away. I try to pull myself out of the whole only to fall back in again. I give up....on everything. I stood on top of the building and enjoyed the feeling of wind blow through my hair. I looked down to see a eight story drop. I took a deep breath as I stepped up on the edge. Tears pored down my cheeks as I got closer and closer to my sealed fate. Just as I was about to let go I hear "don't". I sighed out in frustration. "Why not?" I asked shakily. I don't even bother to turn around and face the stranger trying to talk me out of suicide. "Your young and have so much to live for" "no I don't. I lost everything" I replied as more tears poured down my cheeks. "Did you?" He asked. It was quiet for a moment then I hear his foot steps come closer towards me. "Yes I did!" I said defensibly. He stopped for a moment. "Cassie" he said calmly. "How do you know my name?" I know I didn't recognize this voice. No reply. "It doesn't matter." "Yes it does" "you don't even know me! What's the point of trying to save a stranger!" I asked. "I mean nothing. My life has lost purpose. I just want the pain to go away" I added. "There's another way to make the pain go away" he took another few steps closer then stepped up on the ledge with me. "I'm not going to let you go" he said then wrapped is arms around my waist. I Reyes to push away from his grip but he was a string muscular boy. "No" I breathed out in tears. He began to slowly pull me off the ledge and back onto the safe floor. I turned to face this stranger. My vision was completely blurred with tears. "I wish you just let me!" I screamed then buried my face into his chest hysterically crying. "Go home. See your grandparents" he said still embracing me in a hug. We sat like this for what seemed like forever before he let me go. I looked up at him just before he disappeared right I first of my eyes. Gone. I'm use to being crazy but this frightened me. I did as I was told and retired to my grandparents. I did everything in my power to avoid them when I got home though. I went straight to my room and fell asleep.
