I hear the roars of the ocean clashing against the rocks next to my home. I walk down into my kitchen. Dishes lay piled up as high as my eyes view. I walk around my counter stepping over torn dog toys. My mom has been laying on the couch watching tv since the accident. 3 months ago we got into a car collision, my mom had been driving and I was in the passenger seat aside her as normal. Suddenly a transport truck ramed into the drivers side of the car. I can still hear the screals and wailing of my mom. The paramedics got there intime to save her life but her leg was a lost cause. The flesh was torn into shreds leaving blood and skin everywhere. Ever since the day my mother lost her leg she has been drained, so drained she cant even take care of her kids anymore. I learned to cook and clean, take the dogs for walks, bring the kids to school and help with there homework afterwards. Meanwhile she sits there and just screams at us all day. Everytime im around her now its like walking on thin ice, you need to be careful with your words elegant almost like a figure skater leaping and turning at the perfect times and making everything just right.
Everyone wonders what happens when you die, Some people die early but get buried old, Death is when you feel dead, Death isnt a thing to me its a emotion, Im dead inside but im not underground yet, Im surving and there is most definitely a difference between that and living, If im already dead inside then why not be dead on the outside too? I can leave my body and leave my soul behind leave this world full of pain and find a way to end the suffering, But maybe just maybe I can learn to live and not just survive.
I take a deep breath as I walk through the dark gloomy forest, taking in the darkness letting it swallow me whole. Anna is walking next to me and Keira And sarah are behind us. I hear a deathly scream come from behind me. I turn around to see Sarah standing over top of a bloody leg. Anna starts to cry at the sight of it. I try to calm everyone down we just need to call the cops I say reaching for my phone. No service fuck I think I stay calm telling them it will all be okay. Keira looks at me with a look of despair in her green eyes. Suddenly I remember about what happened last night. "Sarah did we" i stutter "did we do this?" I start to panick. "I I dont know I thought we helped him find the way back" Sarah says tears streaming faster then a river go down her face. "What do we do?" Keira says looking around "Shit thats the guy we were trying to help" Anna says gagging at the sight of his bloody face. "Fuck fuck fuck there gonna think we killed him" Keira says reaching for her phone. "I already checked theres no service this far in the woods" I say trying to stay calm so the rest of the group doesnt start to panic. "We need to hide the body" Sarah says "I cant go to jail" Everyone stares at her with empty voids in there eyes. "Thats more suspicious though" Keira says fiddling with her necklace. "Guys lets just get out of here they have no prove to tie us to this" I say starting to walk back towards the start of the never ending trail. "Okay but..." Anna says before I cut her off "No buts we are leaving we never seen anything okay" "Okay" Everyone says. We walk back the trail feels like it is never gonna end each branch snapping sends shivers down my spine. "Okay we bring this to our graves got it?" Says Keira as we near the end of the trail. "Got it" We all say. To this day no one ever knows off that night in the trail.
