I don't belong here.

(Decided... when my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done...)

I opened my eyes and shut them close instantly. The bright light hurt like hell. But I forced myself to open them again but this time kept my eyelashes feathered over the breach. As my eyes adjusted to the bright daylight, everthing came into focus. 

Though everything was clear by then, I did not recognise the place. The huge unfamiliar place, everything organised, and the curtains of the windows apart letting the golden sun rays burn my eyes.

A fluffy blanket covered me entirely, as I removed it, I asked myself, "Where am I ?"

"At my home, sweetheart.", I heard a familiar voice. I turned my heavy head to see Chester. He was the last person whom I wanted to see that time. I forced myself to recall what happened last night.

Eventually I remembered everything, I could feel the anger and guilt swelling up in my heart and tears swelling up in my eyes. The pulse behind my ears was so loud that it drowned everything else. I removed the blanket from my body entirely and was ready to leave. I got up from the king sized bed and walked towards the door. I did not want to talk to Chester, or shout at him or even look at him. Chester stood there with a stern face at the door, and I went past him. He did not try to stop me. My life was ruined.

I was then out on the street. The pouring rain had the abilities to hide the tears but not detach them from us. Tears are like encapsulated with us, they are such an important part of us, many a times they end up dominating over us. 

As I walked down the narrow street, I felt nothing. I had become so numb, only tears and memories peeped and hid. The good times, the bad times. I actually started recalling everything, starting from the very first day. I cursed the basketball day, which was the reason I was in such a condiion today, moreover I cursed myself for even taking the decision of going for it. I hit my shoulders and arms and everywhere Chester had touched me in my despair. On thinking about the time that I had wasted on him made me laugh at myself. I calmed down as thoughts of Mike came into my mind. His soothing smile, his daddy love, his sweet calm behavier, and everything else. I admired his forgiving heart, he loved me so much and I....

I started doubting wether I even deserved living or not. I knew if I explained everything to Mike, he would understand and forgive me all over again. But.... what about me ? How could I forgive myself ? I could no longer live with this guilt anymore. I know what I am supposed to do.

I started running, I felt so cold. But nothing could stop me now. Goodbye World.

Mike's P.O.V

As I looked up from my book that I was reading, Stephen King, I saw Perry advancing towards me, with a worried expression on her face.

"Hey, Mike! I got to tell you something.", she said, gasping for air. "Of course, go ahead.", I replied. 

"Mike, I think Anna is in some kind of trouble.... I don't know why, but I get this bad feeling that something is wrong.", she said. I shut my book and got up from my table.

"Wh-Wh-What are you saying ? What happened ?", I asked her eagerly. She replied,"From yesterday night, she is not answering my texts nor my calls, I am worried Mike, we got to do something!"

I did not stand there any longer. I along with her other friends head out to look for all the places Anna usually visited when she was sad.

I went with Perry , both of us utterly worried. Then we heard Perry's cell beep. She saw the name of the caller and smiled. She exclaimed, "Anna !" 

"Pick up the phone Perry !", I screamed over the pouring rain.

"Hello ? Anna? Where are you? Are you fine? You've not answered any of my calls or messages! What's wrong ?", She asked angrily and put on the loud speaker.

"Hey Perry, I just wanted to say that, you are my most precious friend and I love you a lot. Debby, Pam, Linda, Sally, Maho, Sammy and everyone of you are loved immensely. And.... Mike.... tell Mike that he was my best decision but I was his worst. And.... even if I die.... I'll love you guys forever. Goodbye."

Beep.

By the end, she was in tears. Perry panicked even more and now we were sure that she was in danger.

(Not yet my time)

Anna's P.O.V

I thought that it would be good if I could just bid them one last goodbye. I had almost reached my destination.

It was a high building, where I used to sit when I was sad or depressed due to bad marks in school. Those were the days.The view from the top is beautiful and always made me feel better. But today, it would give me freedom from this painful life, which I wasn't worth living.

I stepped on the edge of the terrace and stretched out my hands. For the last time, I felt the soft Earthly breeze on my face. I put one foot out into the air, I closed my eyes and then....

"What the fuck is wrong with you Anna ?" , Mike yelled, as he pulled me away from the edge. I broke down into is arms and cried. He held me tightly and comforted me. Perry too was there, in tears. Mikes exclaimed, "Oh thank God I am right on time!"

"But no use of your right timing Mike", someone stated from the back. We turned to face Chester, with a gun in his hands.

"Put it down, Chester!", Mike said firmly. "No ! If she can't be mine, atleast she won't be yours!", Chester replied.

"No No No No !", Mike yelled. But no use, Chester shot a bullet straight towards me. Fear was all I experienced at that time.

"NOOOOO !", I heard someone say. I could not feel any pain, as I thought that the bullet had hit me, but it did not. It hit Perry! Perry dashed infront of me in order to save me!

I screamed in horror and sunk down beside my best friend's body. Chester was being hand-cuffed by the police. Mike sat down beside me. He was also in tears. I shook her body, I was extremely broken from the inside, "Why ? Why did you do this to me ? Are you crazy ? Get up ! Move! You lazy bum!", but she did not reply.... she was so quiet as she was never before. The paramedics came in and separated me from my best friend. My soul was torn into pieces.

Mike took me along with him and tried his best to comfort me....

(ook guys this story is coming to an end.... n writing this was really hard.... :'()
