Hopeless World

The World was finally crashing down on me; I couldn’t take it anymore. I was on the edge of the school rooftop; my best friend staring back at me. Her eyes begging me not to fall. I leaned backwards and I flew for the first time; for a fraction of a second and then everything went black.

My peaceful slumber had been broken due to all the noise around me. I saw Heeson-ee’s face with a mixture of relief and reproach. I had apparently been put on campus arrest for the next three days. I heard all that she said with a smile; after all this would be the last time, we ever talk.

The next day I kept walking around the campus. I stood in front of the white wall. I was lost in my thoughts when a face appeared before me. It was our class representative, also the grandson of the chairman of the school; he had good looks and great grades; he had pretty much everything going for him.

“I heard you were put on campus arrest?” He asked; his voice a mellow baritone; quite soothing.

When I didn’t reply, he assured me “I’ll take care of it.” I nodded with a smile and off he went.

A prince charming taking care of all my problems. I mused, as if such situations ever happen in real life.

As sleep took over me, the last thing I saw was the wind blowing the cloth covering the wall and revealing three colorful spray painted bold words; Father, friends and sisters.

I thought, ah the pain finally stopped.
