“No! It’s not true. Your lying to me. I talked to Dan yesterday. He seemed fine!”

No he didn’t though. He told me he loved me yesterday. I laughed it off saying ‘yeah okay.’ He had said “Seriously Jennifer, I do. Never forget that. Please. I love you and I’m sorry for hurting you.” I had replied, “You could never hurt me, but I love you too and you will always hold a place in my heart…

“Jenny, listen to me-”

“I can’t.” I broke down into my best friends’ arms. There was just no way he was right.. He must be mistaken. My best friend stood there holding me. He hadn’t and wouldn’t let go of me for a very long time. I needed time to process this, much as I didn’t want to. But no, I wouldn’t believe Dan had commited suicide.
