i got up and turned up the volume on the tv.

"it's absolutely heartbreaking that today's youth submit themselves to such awful behavior. in new york city, drug culture is rough and common. an average of 114 people die of drug overdoes every day in the us, today we have lost a young boy to the common overdose of narcotics. oxycotin to be exact. we encourage parents to educate their children on the dangers and risks of taking prescription drugs without a prescription. one extra pill can take a life. michael clifford was found dead in his apartment due to an overdose of oxycotin. cocaine, marijuana, and heroin were also found in his posession. the police are currently investagating the source of the drugs. michael was only nineteen and had a whole life ahead of him. it is vital that today's youth know the consequences of drug abuse-"

i turned off the tv quickly and turned to calum.

"michael's dead," i mumbled.

calum said nothing, he stood up and walked to my window. he pulled his pack of cigarettes out of his pocket and opened the window, dropping them.

"i was down to one cigarette a day anyway."
