In the suicide forest

It was summer that time when the most painful thing happened to me. I lost my friend, My best friend who I grew up with. Who I cherished the most.

Macco Mechailis, a young man who is so inlove with his best friend.

Macco's POV

Its been 16 years since Leigh and I became best friends.

"Hey! Macco! yoohoo earth to Macco?" Leigh said while shacking me up.

"Yah! what the hell are you doing ya crazy cookoo" I shouted because I began being dizzy.

"Opps sorry. I shaked you cuz you're not listening to me" she sad in a low voice.

I was shocked when I looked at her she was about to cry.

"Hey, Leigh is there a problem?"

"Nope" She said and looked away.

"Oh by the wat Macco dint forget our trip to the suicide forest next week it's part of the dare we played last friday." she said happily.

"yeah sure how would I forget about it"

I didn't know that, That would be our last conversation.

The time finally came when we went to the suicide forest. Though its scary we managed to get in. But I never know that I will be the only one getting out.

"Leigh! Leigh! where the heck are you!" I shouted at the entrance.

I was so scared I thought she was just behind me.

"Leigh! please! c-come out there"

I called the police. It took us hours and days. And finally we saw her.

We finally saw her, but she's lifeless. I frozed at my place when i saw her body hanging on a tree. Tears began to rush down my cheeks. not knowing why the hell and who the hell did that to her.

When the authorities finally get her body down I rushed to hug her cold body.

I cried and beg every saints to give her back but I know that, that will never happen.

I cant eat, I cant sleep, I cried almost everyday. Until the day of her funeral.

A letter was handed to me by her mother. She said that she saw the letter inside Leigh's bag.

Tears began to fall again as i felt a million daggers stabbing my heart.

'Dear Macco,

I know its selfish of me to say it to you this way. But im afraid that I cant tell you this face to face. Its very painful for me to do but I made up my mind. Im sorry if I will take my life. I've been so depressed and the pain that im feeling has no more space to place. I love you. I know this is straight forward but, you see. I cant say this to you face to face and i know you will not accept a dirty, filthy woman like me.

My father raped me countless times and my mother didn't know. I hate myself for that. And that's the reason of all this stupidity that Im gonna do. Im so sorry, Its been really hard for me. I hope you'll understand.

I love you good bye.

Leigh'

Pain, Hate, Anger. Many emotions that I felt. I stand in front of her grave and kneeled.

Tears, tears. All i can do is to cry because of loosing my best friend, the woman i love.

"Im sorry, Im sorry I cant do anything for you. Im sorry i didn't listen. Im sorry I'm sorry" Countless sorry, Countless regrets.

Even a million prayers wont bring you back to me. Our final moment together in that suicide forest. I will remember for the rest of my life.

Te Amo Leigh.
