Ruthie and I were doing are math homework.

"Do you understand any of this"? Ruthie asked me.

"None of it I said.

"I don't either." Ruthie said.

"When my mom was alive me and her would eat cookies and she would help me with my homework" I replied.

Annie walked into the room. "How is the homework going girls" she said.

"We don't understand any of it" Ruthie said.

"Well dinner will be ready in about five minutes" Annie said.

During dinner

"Eric can I talk to you after dinner" I said.

"Sure" he replied.

When we finished dinner Eric and I went into his office.

"What did you want to talk to me about" he said.

"I feel guilty" I said.

"Why is that?"

"Because I didn't get to say I love you before my mom died".

"Well I'm sure she knew that you loved her".

"Then why did she kill herself".

"Probably because she was sad about your sister and you dad leaving and only having you".

That night when Ruthie was sleeping I wrote a note and put it on my pillow. I snuck downstairs and ran out the door.

Should I Continue? Please review.
