a duo is what we were supposed to be. i didn’t know i’d ever have to be the one to save her.

a hole had formed where the knife had pierced every layer. red blood gushing. draining the life out of her. my best friend.

all i could hear was yells. “STOP THE BLEEDING. COVER THE HOLE. PRESS HARD.” a random man helping me keep her alive until the ambulance came to save us.

tears fell off my face and onto her skin, mixing together with the blood.

“please stay with me” i whispered.
