It's official you guys, I'm back! I really apologize for keeping you 'effects of soda' fans waiting. I expect to have a new chapter up on that story within a week or s o. I really needed a little hiatus, so you'll have to forgive me. Now, on to this story. I have big plans for this one, and I hope that you guys like it. I want to make much more developed characters with a good storyline. Please review and tell me what you think of this.
Prologue
I stood on the railing, 17 stories above the hard concrete. The metal felt cool on my bare feet. I looked below to see cars zooming by on the black asphalt, lights glowing brightly in the dark night. The only thing keeping me from plunging to my death was my hand resting on the side of the massive building.
I swallowed hard, and brushed a few strands of wild hair behind my ear. The wind was cool, average for a mid-September night. I thought about the Christmas I would never get to see this year; all the people happily singing carols and enjoying their families. How all the shopkeepers would have their shops brightly decorated with blinking lights and toys up in the shop windows to attract all the little eyes.
I shook myself out of the memories and swallowed again. Despite these memories, they did not give life enough meaning for me to continue to carry it out. I gently raised my hand from its resting place.
I lifted my feet off the railing and gracefully stepped into the nothingness that lay before me. The wind whistled in my ears as I took in one of my final breaths and accepted my fate. The fate that I had chosen for myself. For me, there was no other way out.
I haven't decided whether to keep it in this person or not. It just depends. You shall not find out who this is until Chapter 1! Review!
