As i walked out i inhaled but exhaled chopped breathes still crying. Everything seemed so dark around me.  My peripheral vision was black.  The air was cold. And It was raining. For some reason i felt the urge to go to the tree in the park. But instead of running i decided to walk slow this time. I had no jacket. Just a shirt and shorts. But I didn't really care considering my anger and sadness was more cold than this weather.

I kept closing my eyes over and over crying more everytime. Remembering everytime Pony hugged me. And how much he actually cared. As i reached the tree. I didn't go to the tree exactly. I stopped about 20 feet away down the hill. Stopping at the place pony stood about a year ago looking up at me. As his heart shattered. I still don't know why that happened. For some reason putting my shoes on the ground Pony was on, felt disrespectful.

I then started walking up the hill to the tree. As i did i kept looking back at that spot Pony was at. I tried to smile. But couldn't shake that his heart broke. It shattered while looking at me and Soda.  When I got to the tree I saw the carving from Soda and I.  I started to get angry, and I started punching the bark of the tree. After a few hits my knuckles were bleeding. But I didn't stop punching. Just seeing the blood on my knuckles made me more angry. And hurting myself like this was no match to how I hurt Pony in the past.

It was raining, cold, and i was angry. I have never felt this way before. Not after Dally died. I see someone about 100 feet away from me. But me focusing on the tree made their face a blur. I still kept punching the tree. It was a male because I heard their voice. "Brodi.. what are you doing?"

I could hear their footsteps, but my eyes where blured even more by my tears. I feel someone pull me away from the tree. I just wanted cry. But I didn't want to cry on him. I looked up wiping some of my tears. I alsmost pushed him away. I saw Soda..
