Angela stood on the edge of the cliff and breathed in the cold, salty midnight breeze. It soothed her when everything was falling apart.
A buzzing sound shot through the absolute serenity of the moment. Angela sighed and picked up her cellphone.
"Angie, I heard what happened. I'm sorry, but you have to come back, we need you around here" Amy sounded desperate on the phone, almost hysterical.
"Amy, I'm sorry too, I'll come back soon, I promise, just not right now." Angela felt guilty but hung up the phone anyway. She let the device fall to the ground and sat down, her legs dangling from the edge. She stayed that way for hours, or maybe days, she couldn't tell. It didn't matter.
