Letcher Family

"I didnt mean to push her, I really didn't!" I sobbed, my hands digging into my face as I balled and balled. But there was no helping it.

Ray didnt speak, I couldn't expect him to, I wouldn't have known what to say either.

His body stayed frozen as his widened eyes just stared down at me.

"Carla...."

At the whispered mumble of my name I froze, my eyes slowly gliding up to my one and only friend, pleading with him to do nothing, to understand what I wanted.

Noone had to know what I did!

He bent down, hesitantly grabbing my shoulders, in a calming attempt.

"We... we need to tell someone! Now. We, we can say it was an accident, just as you told me and you can still be fine-" He froze.

My eyes broke into his. The dark, beaming orange hues of mine held onto him, daring him to move and make a regrettable decision.

I held my breath, it hitched in the back of my throat as I had realized my mistake, dread filling my every inch while sorrow flooded into me again.

He was to kind, I remembered. Too good of a person, of course hed want to tell and help. How did I forget?

I looked down, grabbing onto his hand. It took him a second to realize and help me up to face him.

I had to get rid of him!
