I stand alone in a dark room preparing to end it. I put the bullets in the gun and ready myself. I just want this to be over, suddenly light

floods into the room. I look over and see the reason I’m here. I loved her, I really really did. I guess she didn’t love me anymore it

used to be so easy she loved me, and I loved her not a question asked. Then it got rough, she started to question us and it all came

crashing down from there. We stayed friends for a while but it became to much for me, I just wanted it done. I’m just so ready to end

this, all of this. She looks over at me scared. I don’t blame her. I’m holding a gun about to shoot.

“Come on, please put the gun down I’m sorry ok, I’m really sorry.”

I cant help but sneer at what she says. If she was sorry she would back away, she would back away and let me do this.

“You’re not sorry though, that’s the problem. If you’re sorry back away and let me do this.”

My voice comes out as a soft whisper, almost begging her to back off.

“Alice please believe me I am sorry.”

I want to laugh, I also want to cry. I don’t know anymore.

“YOU SAID THAT YOU LOVED ME!!! YOU SAID YOU LOVED ME!!! You said you loved me then you left.”

Tears pool out of my eyes, she must think I’m a psychopath. She takes tentative step towards me. BANG!! I fire one of my bullets.

“Don’t come closer” I want to sound threatening but I come off as scared. My hands tremble, do I really want this. I see a pleading look in

Sarah’s eyes.

“I didn’t mean to hurt you,” I no longer know what to say.

“Just put the gun down, drop the gun I’m here for you.” My hands shake uncontrollably, I slowly lower the gun shaking.

“It’s ok come here,” Sarah’s voice whispers. I slowly go over and drop in a heap on the floor.

“I’m sorry, I’m so so sorry” tears pool out of my eyes soaking Sarah’s shirt.

“It’s ok, we’ll get through this, I’m here.”
