Recommended: Losing a family member

Walls closing in around me…. Sweating bullets, every thought rushing through my mind, “can't even believe it happened. How could this have occurred? I don't even think life's worth living after what happened. He was my best friend, why did I let this happen to him, I didn't even say my goodbyes”. This is somewhat along the lines of how people act/ say when a tragedy happens to them, like it happened to me. Let's begin with how I met my friend. It all began one Monday in September, 2013- I remember that day because I was always late on Mondays. In connection with Mondays, which is my toughest day of the week, my first class was Math; my most hated subject. As I soon arrived in class, to my advantage, the class still hadn't begun. I quickly found a seat at the front of the class because people always told me “learners always sit in the front”. My first glimpse of this friend was, quiet, polite, and an exchange student! Yes, my soon- to -be -friend was an exchange student. At first, I was skeptical about becoming friends with him. Fellow classmates remarked their childish remarks at ...

    I could see the fear in her eye, and could feel the pain in her trembling hands. I could sense her discomfort when she talked about the night. I had never known, and never would have guessed, that something happened to her at a party with kids I knew from my school. She told me first. She only told me. She spoke to me about how she can not be in a room with a stranger, or how she feels that part of her died that night. She explained that hugs didn’t feel good anymore, they felt intrusive. She explained that she won’t stay in a room with a male teacher if the other students leave. Every part of her life, she explained, has been changed. She wasn’t the same girl anymore, and she blamed herself for it. Even contemplating suicide, like many victims often do, seemed better than living with the memories. She was too afraid to talk to her parents, because she had drank a little the night of the incident; and too afraid to tell her friends, because they thought that the guy was cool. She didn’t trust anyone anymore, not even her old best guy friends. She had known him; they had been friends in junior high. She knew him…

Goodbye is what you say when you leave, but I'd always said it to him with the full intention of seeing him again later on. So instead I just looked at him. His fingernails were still dirty even after they'd been cleaned- a permanent mark of his living life. We spoke a silent conversation, and I had a moment of understanding. Goodbye didn't feel quite right because I had wanted to say it with the mindset that he was gone forever. I realized in that moment that he would never really leave.

Nevertheless, I am glad that I made this phone call to her, as we are old friends. However, on the other hand I was given her bad news.
