She was standing on the roof and wanted to jump...

He was the one for her, why had he done that?

"Why?!" she yelled as loudly as she could from the roof.

Then she decided she was going to try and win him back.

[She dialled his number]

Girl: Hey

Boy: What did you call me for?

Girl: I need to say something.

Boy: Go ahead.

Girl: I wanted to say just one thing...

[Her voice choked. "He doesn't care about me." she thought.]

Boy: Say it!

Girl: Are you okay?

[Silence]

The tears were streaming down her face again. She hung up, and decided to write a note, and ran out of the house with it.

[Six hours passed]

[Phone rings in boy's room]

It's the girl's mom. She tells him that the girl got hit by a car when she was on her way to see the boy and that she's been admitted to the hospital.

The boy rushed to see her.

He reached out and took her name. She opened her eyes.

Boy: Please be okay, I'm so sorry.

Girl: Why did you do that?

Boy: I have a heart condition and I don't have many days to live. I didn't want to hurt you.

The girl closes her eyes, never to wake up again.

The boy could not believe this had happened because of him.

10 minutes later, the boy gets a heart attack and dies from grief.
