"Fatass" "Dumb" "Annoying" "Idiot" "Fatty" "Fugly" "Bitch" "Shorty" "Useless" "Minion"
The words still echoed in my head as I ran. Ran away. From everything. Home, school, friends, family. Everyone. I was scared. But I knew it would benefit everyone if I went. Wasn't that what they all wanted? Me gone? Well, not exactly everyone, since I still had my family and one friend....... But I bet they would be relieved to see me gone, or maybe not, I don't know. But I'm too fucking selfish. And I've had enough. I don't care about anything or anyone else. I just wanna go away. From this world.
I wiped the tears off my face. I had to do this, right now. Before I backed out like a coward. But am I not a coward already? For running away from all my problems? I brushed away that thought. I took a deep breath. And jumped.
Or rather attempted to jump. Before I was harshly pulled back on top, by none other than my most trusted friend Melissa. "What the hell were to trying to do? You could have gotten killed!!" She exclaimed. "Isn't that what I was trying to do?" I murmured, still shaking from the shock. If it wasn't for her, I would really be dead right now. And as soon as that thought came in, the tears too started falling. I was sobbing heavily, shaking and trembling. "Shhhh, it's ok now, I'm here....." She tried to make me feel better, but nothing worked. Until.....
"Would you feel better if I sang for you?" She asked. I was still crying, but I suddenly became quiet because of the shock. She was always too shy to sing, even in front of me. I tried to say yes, but no sound came, so I just nodded my head. But I didn't look at her. I was ashamed. She caught me trying to kill myself. And she saved me. And I was sobbing so much, I had to cover my face so she wouldn't see my ugly tear-stained face.
"Friend, please remove your hands from
Over your eyes for me
I know you want to leave but
Friend, please don't take your life away from me"
I slowly moved my hand from my face and looked at her, as she continued to sing.
"Would you let me know your plans tonight
'Cause I just won't let go 'til we both see the light
And I have nothing else left to say
But I will listen to you all day, yes I will"
"You promise?" I asked in a hopeful tone. "Promise what?" "That you'll listen to me all day?" "Of course girl, I promise." She smiled, as she replied, while made me smile a very wide smile.
"Friend, please remove your hands from
Over your eyes for me
I know you want to leave but
Friend, please don't take your life away from me
From me"
"I won't. I promise." I told her, when she finished singing. "Also, you're not a terrible singer." "Really? Thank you!" She replied. "You're WHALECUMM!!" I replied, as I hugged her. And she hugged me back. A really tight hug. "I'm never letting you go." She mumbled. "I'll be there for you. Forever." She said, smiling as she pulled back. "I'll be there for you too, if you ever need me." I replied. "You can't get rid of me that easily!" I laughed. "Never said I wanted too." She said, as she put her arm around my shoulder and kissed my cheek, as we walked back to my home.
