Okey. Time for another chapter! Yes this story will have a sequel just so you know.
With a broad smile, I skipped to seventh period. I flung the door open and Rin wasn't there. I just suspected that she was in the restroom. So I waited, but she never came.
Then it struck me, 'oh no'. My hand twitched as I stared out the window, 'she didn't. she couldn't'. I thought panicking. I darted my hand up, and without waiting for the teacher to call on me, I declared, "I need to go do something, now." She shook her head, "Len, we are in the middle of a lesson." I pushed out my desk, "I don't care, it's really important." She sighed, "Len sit down please." I frowned and took a run for it out the door.
I sprinted through the front door of our school, while the harsh wind chilled my eyes. 'No no no no no' my heart beated quickly. I ran down the sidewalk that was placed on the trail to school. I took a turn off the concrete, to the orange tree.
When I saw what was there, my heart, just hanging on by a string from my mother dying and Rin hurting herself, finally broke. It completely shattered like a glass wine bottle dropping to the floor.
The grass was dyed red with my beautiful Rin hanging from a branch of an orange tree, bleeding above. A pill container was covered in blood on the ground. I fell to my knees, with my mouth wide open. She killed herself. She wanted to be perfect. At this point, I didn't know what to do. My mother and Rin, the two people who I deeply cared for and who felt the same for me, were dead. I was just a lost child. Tears dripped down my cheeks, as I noticed a paper pinned to the tree. With my shaking hands, I reached out to the note.
'Dear Len,
I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything; for being alive. I truly do love you more than anything, but obviously I'm not fit to live in reality. It's time. It's time for me to reach wonderland: the place I can be myself and have what I want. I'm not perfect. I was never perfect. I'm just like this orange tree. I sprouted small and noticed. I was new for everyone. But then after I bloomed, I was unnoticed. Everyone had gotten used to me being there, and just kinda ignored me. With out the attention and care that I needed [or the water and fertilizer in the tree's case] I began slowly dying. Now, as the last few leaves fall off this tree, the last few breaths escape my mouth. Now, people will past by this tree and my hanging body chattering and laughing, just happy I'm might do the same. Well, thank you for everything and I'm so sorry. I'll be watching you from above. When you look up at the clouds, please think of me. I love you so much, and trust me I'll be happier.
Rin'
The ink smudged as tears hit the paper. Oh Rin. I stared up at the clouds as I cried. It wasn't raining. She was happier. But I couldn't let her body sit here and rot. I picked up my phone and dialed Lenka's number. She answered in an angry tone, "Why are you calling during school?" I took a deep breath, "Rin... She-she...she committed suicide." She gasped and hung up.
Just a bit later her car came speeding up. She jumped out the car, and ran over to Rin. Her eyes grew large and she turned to me with a death eye shot. She grabbed me by he shoulders and began shaking me, "What did you do to her!?" I grabbed her hands and tried to stop her, "Nothing! I promise!" With an insane glare in her eyes, she slapped me, "Tell me or I'll get you arested! No, I'll kill you!" I took the letter out of my pocket and shoved it in her face. She took the letter and scanned through it. She shivered, "No she can't be gone..." She buried her face in my shoulder and cried, "My baby!"
It was sad, but true. Rin was gone.
Tell me what you think and I'll update soon!
