**Trigger Warning**

It's Wednesday and I'm supposed to be at school, but I faked being sick so I could skip.  My parents are both at work, so I don't need to worry about them for a little bit longer. 

I shouldn't have waited so long.  They could be home before I'm done.  I just couldn't find the nerve to do this until now.  Until this moment, when something soul crushing has just happened to me.

I sit on my bed.  I'm going to miss my room.  This was my sanctuary, my go to place to hide out when it all becomes too much.  I won't need it now.

I take a mouthful of water from the cup I have in my hand, then put a few pills in my mouth and swallow.  I repeat the process until I can't.  It's all fading to black.  I'm just about to go completely, when I hear my mother screaming.  However, it's too late, and I drift away.
