"But Sage, I'm trying to help you. Why don't you understand?"
"You know what? I don't want your ****ing help anymore. Where were you when mom and dad died? You left me... I had to live by myself." At this point, I'm crying but I don't care anymore. "I would be better off dead than here..." I storm off towards my room and slam the door hard behind me. I climb into my bed, under the covers, and allow myself to just sit there and cry.
I watch her leave, feeling hurt by her words. I sigh. I should've been there for her... but things were complicated... they always are complicated...
I pause as I hear voices in the hallway. Ah.... good ol' family quarrels.
I turn to look at the body. "You aren't supposed to die, you dork..." I whisper, tears trickling down my face.
