"30 days," I muttered softly, shaking as I stood up. "Show me any reason to continue."

Vincent Levare suffered with severe depression and anxiety. Everyday was endless pain and fear, and he could only drag himself back up and continue onto tomorrow- that is until he realizes that he can't take anymore.
He decides that he'll take his own life- but in 30 days. In those 30 days, he wanted life to show him everything that was worth living for- 30 days to tell him why he should continue living.
After that decision, there a flash in his dream, and then a beautiful scenery. Roses and the smell of coffee surrounded him. People smiled at him as he walked by, and he could only feel happiness- until he woke up.
And so it continued; a flash of a number, then an unbelievably happy memory popped up. Even as he was experiencing all this, it just wasn't enough.
When his old childhood best friend moves to his high school and finds out about his depression, they begin to try and show him everything that was important in his life and why he should keep living.
Even then, the countdown kept going.
So, he could only hope that they really showed him the value of life.
Because he was so done.
