Mallory is a 15 year old boy who is having a hard time with his life... He goes out for a walk to clear his mind and get out of the house for a while and finds a beautiful pond. He will find himself in this short story. Read what happens to him and the twist at the end... *I would like to note this story will cover a heavy topic such as Depression and Suicide.
