Everyone at the age of 16 has a percentage above their head. When you make physical contact you can take other sadness if you choose too. When you take someone sadness your percentage goes down, theirs goes up. Ryan doesn't see the problem as she continues to take others sadness until eventually it becomes too much.
This is just one giant, long story, that's why it's only one part. I just chose not to do chapters. This was really rough and I haven't went through and edited it so please ignore all mistakes and don't judge that harshly.
If you're struggling please please please tell someone. I'm always here if you need to talk to someone. There are so many people who love an care about you so please talk to them.
