The warm water trickled down her hands, clearing her hands of the soap from washing the dishes.

She bit her lip unconsciously, biting the skin off and nervously chewing it. Her mind was full of worry as the breakup overlapped all her other thoughts.

She trusted him so much to the point that he knew everything about her, so much to the point that she trusted no-one else, so much to the point that she didn't want to ever be away from him but seeing him with that girl in bed shattered her beyond repair.

"Why stay.. if I'm designed to endure pain..?"

Her quiet whispers filled her head as she forced herself to hover the knife over her wrist.

The tears finally fell as she squeezed her eyes shut, the blade of the knife touching the skin of her wrist. She felt her arm pull quickly, waiting for the pain of the blade to do some damage but it never came.

Eyes peeling open, she bit her lip, pressing it harder against her flesh. Nothing.

Now she was just frustrated. She pressed her fingers against the blade harshly and then pulled it away, looking at the mark it left.

Nothing. Nothing but a small dent. No blood, no scar.

"Stupid blunt knife!"

Frustration coursed through her mind as she slammed the knife back into the sink and sunk onto the kitchen floor, tears streaming down her face.

In this world, she had no one and no one had her...
