Charlotte sat in her favorite armchair with her feet tucked under her. Her hands were clasped around a cold cup of coffee. She hadn't touched it since Von left her alone two hours previous. Her eyes were unfocused and she sat thinking about one thing in particular. She hadn't wanted to break down on the ward. She thought she could be strong and get over the whole shebang. Her mind drifted through the events of the night it had happened. Friday night, three nights ago, a tear slid down Charlotte's cheek as everything flashed in her memory. She needed to cry on someone's shoulder, but at the same time she wanted to be alone. She never wanted to be touched by anyone ever again. Charlotte started to sob. She didn't want to live. Nothing would ever cause this one event to leave her mind. She couldn't live like that. She stood suddenly and threw the coffee mug across the room where it hit the wall and shattered, spraying cold dark coffee everywhere. Charlotte collapsed onto the floor and cried into the carpet. Her fists continually thumped down on the floor harder and harder. She had to get it all out. With each thump a new image sprang into her mind but she continued to come down hard on the floor with her fists. She screamed and kicked out at nothing. "I DON'T WANT THIS LIFE!" She lifted her "LET ME DIE!" Her body ceased moving and she lay on the ground sobbing. "Please, let me die. Let it all go away."
