My hands folded into tight fists. For the first five seconds, I thought my mind was playing tricks on me or maybe I could be dreaming again. These days I could hardly even distinguish between dreams and reality. Maybe my brother was just stalking her and nothing more.
No way! It couldn't be
My jaw clenched repeatedly. Liam pulls away and left her smiling to herself. The sight of her smile made my blood run cold. I matched up to her and she froze up.
"Care to tell me what the hell I just saw" my voice went up the roof.
"Martha I can explain" she said too quickly
"You have one minute to do that" I try to calm myself, hoping that the answer she would give me won't push me over the edge.
"Am sorry I kept this from you, I wanted to tell you earlier" my eyes go wide
"Oh my God" I seethed
"Liam and I are dating, I swear I was going to tell you" my hands flied to my hair as I ran my fingers thr
I woke up?I turned around to be met by my empty room.I thought I had already died, why did it have to be a dream?I was ready to leave this world already, there was nothing here for me. Just why?I looked down at my hand to check if it was sparkling, but there was no bracelet. I don't remember removing it. I rolled around in my bed, checking for it when I caught a pair of eyes in the door way. My heart almost left my chest as the eyes disappeared.What was that?I slowly got down from bed and step by step, I reached the door way and saw no one. I continued my slow steps till I got to the living room. What I saw next made my heart stop."HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!"My hand flew to my heart and I clutched at the invisible thing.Was I going crazy? I definitely was.Standing there with wide smiles on their faces were mom, dad, Liam, kelly, and Lilly.Was
Have you ever been running from the inevitable?I was.I was running.I had no idea where I was running to but I was running.I was running away from death.I wanted to die but at the same time, it scared me so much.My bracelet kept sparkling every five minutes.I looked like a crazy person but that was the least of my worries.*you cannot outrun your death*The voice in my head said but I refused to listen to it.There must be something, anything for me to do to stay alive.Panicked tears streamed down my cheeks as I kept running but suddenly halted when I saw a cross symbol.A church.Why haven't I thought of that ever?I ran inside, straight up to the alter. I knelt down on the small steps and cried unto the floor.Oh help me lord. Forgive me all my sins and save my soul."My chil
News flash.I didn't have a life anymore.I stopped going to school after Kelly and Liam died and that was three weeks ago.It was me and my dad, who was my least favorite person.My life was over.I was eagerly waiting for it to be my turn.People feared me, they called me bad news. Anytime I walked the street, people will shift far away from me. I felt like a disease that had no cure.I was carried away by my thoughts that I didn't hear my door open and my dad walk in.I glanced at him once then back to the wall that seemed to be better comfort than him."I'm going to the store to get some food stuff" he said but I didn't as much move."You have really been through alot and I don't know how to comfort you but know am here for you" still didn't move"I'm the only one you've got now, stop hating me" his voice went up a bit.I turned.&n
I sat patiently on the couch waiting for Liam to walk through the door, I needed to give him a piece of my mind. I tapped my foot on the floor impatiently, staring at the clock every 30seconds. It was 8:00pm and he wasn't back yet, maybe he was with her. Not that am against their relationship but they shouldn't have kept it from me, if I didn't see them am sure she would have never told me.Just as thoughts roamed around in my head, the door creaked open and liam walked through"speak of the devil" I said standing up "am sure she must have... " my words hung up in my mouth when Kelly walked through the same door standing beside liam."Oh great! Why don't we all have a family meeting" I spat humorlessly while gesturing for them to sit."Martha""Oh don't Martha me" I hush my brother "you went behind my back to date my friend""It wasn't.. ""You went behind my back to date my brother" I say to

Martha save me! Martha help me! Martha! Lily's voice was all I could hear in my head. I sat on my bed, my legs clutched up against my chest with my arms, my eyes felt so heavy. Still frozen, I stare into space but somehow I noticed that Kelly sat by me and Liam was pacing back and forth in my room. I was a mess. I was totally disconnected with the world. There were no tears left to cry anymore. My whole body was vibrating. Lily is gone. I watched her die in front of me. She was gone. No Ben, no mom, no Lily.I just wanted to die
