We find hope in the most unexpected places. Max had always been the social outcast. No matter how many times he tried to make a friend, he'd end up failing. Tortured by practically every jock his options of survival grow slim, very slim. Figuring this life was not for him, he coincides with his inner demon and decides he's had enough. The noose hung from the ceiling as he strapped it around his neck. Inches from death, tears begin to stream down his cheeks. Glancing around the room one last time, he takes a deep breathe before proceeding on with tightening the rope around his squeamish throat. This was it. No turning back now. As he inches forward a knock awakens him from the complete darkness he had been compiled in. Finally a light to an in bearing dark side. He hops off the chair and walks over towards the door. Please note: This story is based off of my life, a lot of its true. I wrote this in hopes of inspiring people to continue on.

"I'm not okay!" I yelled at him. "Okay?! I'm not okay." My chest rose up and down as I breathed heavily. It had been years since I had a break down, and I wasn't going to have one right now. "It's okay not to be okay," he whispered, walking closer to me. He caressed my cheek, trying to sooth me. I stared at him, pain filled my eyes. I was trying hard not to cry. I couldn't cry. That's not what I did. "It's okay to cry," he comforted. His eyes stared so hard into mine I felt like he was seeing into my soul. "Crying shows weakness, and I'm not weak," I told him, swallowing hard. "Sometimes crying is the strongest thing you can do. It just shows everyone else that you're just as human as they are." And right then and there I started sobbing. I had lost all control of my emotions, I cried like I hadn't since I was little. All those times I didn't cry when I wanted to poured out now. The walls I spent so long building to make them unbreakable, broke. Alana finds a thick orange envelope in her mailbox one day.
