It had been one month, three days, and six hours since I last saw her. But who’s counting? I still remember the last words she told me; ” I took some pills Nick..”. Those were the words that haunt me to this very day.
If only I could have been there for her, I was her best friend and yet I didn’t see it coming. I knew she loved Jake, and she was crushed when he left her for that slut Chanel. What’s wrong with guys, I mean, I’m a guy but I would never do that to a girl who I had been dating since grade ten.
It had only been a week since he broke her heart, one week and yet I thought she was ok. We talked on the phone and she never mentioned it. If I brought it up then she changed the subject. I was so oblivious to her pain. Yet if I had looked deeper inside her would I have noticed the scars he left on her broken heart?
It makes me wonder, if I deserved her. She was there for me when I needed it, when my dog died, when my dad left us, and yet I didn’t even know she was contemplating killing herself.
