I was in disbelief, I couldn't believe that my brother was dead nor would I.  There hadn't been a death in one thousand years and now my brother is dead? It wasn't adding up, I thought back to the rumor going around town. It was morning now ,I had gone right to bed after learning about my brother. I hadn't even changed out of my clothes or gotten under my covers. When I woke up my mom was sitting at the edge of my bed. Just like she had the day before. "It's crazy how things change so quickly". My mom had clearly been crying all night her eyes were puffy and her hair was a mess. "I would understand if you would want to stay home from school today, in fact I think you should stay home so we can talk." My mom had said. "I think so too momma." I replied. For the rest of the day I layed in my bed still in my clothes from the day before. Sam and Lily tried to call me but I didn't answer. I felt horrible how this could happen ,my brother, an FBI agent, the person who I had played baseball with just the week before. I didn't even know how he had passed away. That is ,until we found out, it was later that day we had had to go and identify his body, it was a horrific time. We entered the room that they called the coroner's office and there he was lying down on a silver metal table with a green blanket type thing covering his body and face. There was also a strange man in there I don't know why but he just had an air to him that seemed disturbing he was wearing full scrubs that you'd expect a surgeon to wear. He pulled the green blanket thing over his face. I was horrified there was Noah dead lying on a steel table in a coroner's office. I can't believe it. The weird man in scrubs asks us if it is Noah. My mom trembles and mutters under her breath. "Yes, yes it's him". We were then told that Noah took his own life. I am in disbelief Noah taking his own life, it doesn't make sense. He was so happy just last week we had played baseball. After we recoup a little bit we are led out of the room by a guard by the door. We are all in tears; my mom, my dad, and I. The drive home is very quiet with a few muffled sobs interrupting the silence. When we arrive at home we all just leave for our own rooms, still in total disbelief.
