Two-shot story about how Liza Evans fought her way out of depression with the help of her bestfriend. ( This is so cringy but I tried my best. )

Mica

Dang. What's wrong with Liza nowadays? She's been so quiet. Honestly, I've been observing her every move  for the past weeks and all I can see is pattern.

She's waking up in a generic time and sleep almost late every night and Vie said she always heard Liza whimpering on their bathroom and every time she ask her why, Liza would dodge the question.

I'm worried-No. I'm anxious.

"Mica!" I feel myself jump in fright when I heard myself being called. Hurriedly searching for the voice I saw Mavie looking at me.

We're here inside the convenience store just buying snacks for our Movie marathon. And since Mavie is taking too long to freakin chose her snack, I'm reminiscing, walking down the memory line.

I sigh. Looking at my friend I decided to ask her. Besides I want to know If she noticed.

"Do you think Liza's acting normal nowadays?" I casually ask, well atleast I tried my best not to indulge myself too much into the question to make it look casual.

"Yah. I guess so. Mica what do you think taste better? Cheese or Bbq flavor?" She showed me two flavor of Clover and I can't help but face plam myself.

"Seriously Mavie? Don't you notice Liza acting weird?" She look at me confused for a second and then all of a sudden she went for the Clover Cheese. I was about to yell out of irritation when she speaks.

Her voice no longer sound uninterested, She look so serious and a glint of worry is evident on her face. It takes me back.

"Ofcourse I did. She's not being subtle about it y'know. Certain times, she's just bluntly ignoring me. You know how Liza is. She's a constant narcissist and when she stopped praising herself anymore. That's where I knew there's something wrong."

I knew it! I was not the only one!

"Right?! And her robotic daily routines! Did you notice it? It's like she's only breathing for the sake of breathing! She's looks like she've lost her will.. lost sight of life."

"Yeah. The glint in her eyes vanished. It's empty, and that thought alone scares me."

I agreed on what she said. After paying for the food we bought, I quickly enter my car and drove our way back to the dorm. But I knew I had to talk to someone about Liz, or else? I'll lose my minf thinking of thousand of possibilities how and why would she act that way.
Forcing myself to look for my own unanswered questions and racking my brain out to search for the reasons.

"So? What do we do about it?"  I ask Mavie, she's jamming on a song being played when I ask her. She stopped and then look at me for a moment we just held each other's contact and we understand what we have to do.


"We need Vie for this." I heard her say that cause me to smirk. Yeah. We need Vijie's help.

Whatever you're going through right now Liz. We're coming to save you.

Vijie

We're waiting for the two to arrive when Liza just out of nowhere break down.

I swear!

She's just sitting there while playing with her phone so I thought she's not in a mood to talk and went to play with my phone too, after couple of minutes, I heard someone sniff and swear!

I'm so nervous!

"Hey Liz.. what's wrong?"

Oh help! I'm so bad at this! What to do? What to do?!


I'm internally panicking right now like seriously! I've never been hood with this!

Liza look at me with tears staining her beautiful face. I swear it borke me! I hate seeing her cry. It's painful.

But she just look at me without speaking. The only sounds that came out from her is her own whimper and broken sobs. It's so painful that I had to restrain myself from crying cause honestly? I want to cry so bad seeing her like that.

Instead..

"H-hey..No. Don't cry Ate Liz. Stopped crying please. I'm so bad at this aren't I?" I can't help laughing at my own misery. I honestly don't know how to comfort someone so I did the first thing that came in my mind.

I hugged her.

I put my arms around her shoulders burrying her face on my chest. While she still cries but not answering any of my questions.

I decide to just run her back to soothe her down instead of bugging her for what's wrong.

"What happened here?"

I turn my face up and then i saw the two of my friend.. sister by heart.

"Hey, What's wrong?" All of a sudden. I just find myself sobbing with Liza.

I'm crying to the point that I muself can't recognize it.

Why am I crying?!

I don't know. But I knew I had to let all this feelings out. Honestly, I have a clue why Liza is acting weird nowadays and no matter how hard I tried to ignore it and tell myself I'm fine that everything is fine. I know I'm not.

Liza went out of the Living room leaving me with the two intensifying my wailing of sadness.

Mavie immediately went to my side as Mica chased Liza on our shared room.

I'm crying my heart out blaming myself for this situation but all throughout that time. Mavie held me tight. Whispering words of comfort.

"Stop crying Vie... Don't cry okay?
...Everything's gonna be fine... It's  alright... You're fine..."

I hope so. I really hope so.
