Through the next few days I couldn't concentrate on anything. My head wouldn't process that Faith was gone, she was never coming back. I felt like breaking down every hour, minute by minute, I needed help. I needed it to stop. I remained for days in my apartment, not looking back at anything. I didn't want to. Only a few people called to check up on me including Davis and my ma. They all thought I was dead at the station. I told them the truth about what had happened that night. I had told them the entire thing from the false murder to the stand off between Cruz and Faith. It was Noble who they were looking to find. He was the one who should have been dead to begin with.
I didn't know what was going to happen next. I didn't want to know at this point. I hadn't slept in a few days; I knew I looked like hell. Every time I closed my eyes the nightmare came back and I saw it all over again, the three of us with our guns out, three shots echoing in my head, and Faith falling to the ground. Cruz didn't concern me; she was ok, from what I heard.
The last words I heard from Cruz haunted me. 'You just can't bear the fact that you killed your best friend.' I knew she was true. I should have never put Faith in that position.
Sitting on my couch I stared at the news on the TV. It was a quarter past midnight when I heard a small knock come from the door. I didn't budge to answer it.
"Bosco," I heard a familiar voice say. My heart jumped as I turned my head to face the door.
"Faith.." I whispered to myself. Standing up I started slowly to the door, my heart racing. It sounded so much like Faith. I knew her voice, it had to be Faith, but how, she was dead. I opened my door slowly terrified to who would be standing in front of me. I prayed it was Faith and the whole thing was a dream. As I saw the face of the person I thought I was going to die in shock. "Faith?"
