Brieanna went to Kendal's car and took out her back pack. She slammed the door. Behind that brave lady who spoke earlier is an always emotional human being.
"Brie! Brieanna!" Kendal called out for her but she didn't listen, she just wanted to go home already.
She was going out the gate when Kendal hold on to her arm. Brie glared at her.
"What?" She yelled and shoved Kendal's hand.
"Go back and apologize to aunt Susie and everyone! That was really embarrassing!" Kendal yelled.
"No! All of you think of me as worthless, lazy, useless and mostly an embarrassment! Know what? I'm just so done with all these insult!" Brieanna said and wiped her tears. She look at Kendal one more time and turned her back on them.
Kendal chose not to chase her and just give her time to cool down. She worries a lot about Brieanna. After her best friend, Kirby died, she has been this living ghost. Quieter than she was before and more secretive. Kendal sighed as she tries not to get emotional.
•••
Brieanna didn't went home immediately, she chose to drop by her boyfriend's house. She pressed the door bell but no one answered. She texted him a couple of times and called him but no answer.
"Oh come on Fred!" She mumbled as she put her phone near hear ear again. She was still outside his house.
"The number you dialed is either unattended or out of coverage area, please try your-"
She pressed end and was about to dial his number again but then she saw him. Just that he wasn't alone. Her boyfriend was damn holding hands with another woman.
Fred was so shocked to see Brieanna there. He's so lost for words. The way she looks is just so messed up.
"Brie..."
"Have a good night you fucking moron," Brie calmly said and walked away.
Fred left the girl he was with and chased Brie. She took her hand but she shoved it away.
"Brie... please I'm sorry! I didn't mean to, you were just too-"
"What? Too messed up? Too ugly that you can't brag to your friends about?" She asked crying. "I never thought you'd do this to me. You could've broken up with me first but you're a fuckin' cheat," she hissed in between her sobbing.
"Brie, fix yourself. I'm sorry but I can't save you anymore. It's too much for me," Fred said bowing down his head.
"I didn't ask for you to save me. I only wanted you to be there and love me," Brie said and chuckled sarcastically. "I wish you both the best."
With that said Brieanna chose to walk away, not minding Fred calling out for her.
What the fuck is happening to my life? Why do I get to feel this things? Why is nobody there for me?
As soon as Brie was on another block away from Fred she sat down the side walk. She needed to break down now, she's so frustrated with her life and so she started breaking down on the dark side of the street.
When she finally got the strength to get on her feet again she stand up and went home.
At home, she immediately went upstairs to her room. Brieanna sat down on her chair, she turns on her lamp, took out a pen and her notebook. It's time she plans her death and follow Kirby.
She wrote down all the possible ways to have that perfect suicide plan. Cutting in a bathtub is not an option. Hanging herself isn't great either. Taking pills, she doesn't have a way to get those pills. Jumping off high grounds is not the perfect way.
Brieanna leaned back and looked up at her empty ceiling. She wants no one to find her body just like how no one noticed her pain.
"I have to be deep under..." she mumbled and then a bright light crossed her mind. "That's it!"
She took out her phone and started researching about beaches with high cliffs. The beach where it's too peaceful and far away from people. And then she saw one place where she and Kirby went to before. This is it, to die in a place as beautiful as paradise.
Brieannna wasted no second, she stood up and took out her travel bag. She packed up couple of clothes, underwear and a small stuffed toy. She charged her phone, powerbank, and bluetooth speaker.
"Oh yeah! This is the year I'm going to say goodbye to earth!" She yelled out loud and laugh crazily.
When she finally set out everything, she put the alarm on at 5:00 AM. She laid down her bed and snuggled on her pillow.
"I'm going to miss this bed," she mumbled and closed her eyes. Finally, the day she has been waiting for five years will finally come soon.
*kringgg* kringggg*
Brieanna groaned as she reached to turn off her alarm clock. Once it was off she rubbed her eyes and sit up. She stretched and then got off the bed. She changed her clothes and put on her sneakers.
"I need to get going before they all come home," she said to herself.
Brieanna took her back pack and put it on. Damn it's so heavy, she thought. She went down to get some chips and cookies and then she checked her savings. Well it's just enough for her to get by for a couple of days.
Walking out the door with a suicide plan on her hand is something she never thought would come so soon. The house will be more peaceful without her, no embarrassment atlast! She stared at the house for a couple of seconds more and then left.
Okay, so here's her route for the day. At 8 AM she needs to be at the province's sea port and depart at 9:20 AM to head to a different city, Cebu. It's a two hour travel. Then at Cebu she needs to take a taxi from Pier 1 to Mactan Cebu Airport. The plane departs at 14:30 to land on Siargao Airport at 15:30. She can then find some accommodations and rent out motor bikes to see which place is best for her plan.
As she waits for a bus, she booked for ocean jet and then her flight. The tickets already cost her six thousand in round offs.
A bus finally stopped in front of her and she got on it. This starts her journey to death.
William felt like he needed to go to the global beach for a while. He needed to see the beach to remind him that these people in the crowd has their own issues like him too. They're all facing a battle. Will parked and was about to open the door when he saw this lady who passed in front of his car. He doesn't know why but he was drawn to her. His gazed had followed her until she was out of his sight. Who the heck was that? He went out the car and hurry to look for that lady, but she was nowhere to be found. Damn! He sighed, upset that he couldn't see her. Well, not for him. Turning around, he went on the other side of the beach. Those feeling he felt when he saw that lady, it's nothing like before. Seeing that expression
Brieanna woke up at almost 1 pm and because she woke up late she missed her free breakfast. So now what she did was just eat cookies after getting a new sim card. She needed it for booking a motorbike from a website called Book2wheel. Getting at that website, she started filling up all the blanks and choosing how long, which motorbike, and blah blah blah. She immediately received a confirmation email with her reservation details and number from the website after choosing to pay cash when she picks up the motorbike. The only thing she needs to do now is wait for the motorbike owner to confirm. It was almost two thirty in the afternoon when she received the confirmation text from the owner. She stopped writing and head out. Brieanna didn't know where the meet up place was so she start
William stared at the beach while he stays and lean forward on the rails on his front porch. Why was she staring at the ocean with those dreary eyes? He hasn't seen someone in the place who stared at the ocean like that. She seemed so lost. He closed his eyes. "You can't help her, William! You're as hopeless as her," William mumbled to himself, then he straight up drink the left beer in his bottle. ••• The next day William decided to visit Brieanna-well actually just spy on her. He went to the resort where she was staying. Why he knows? He owns the resort and he was the one who changed the price for her. He went aroun
Brieanna just had her free breakfast. She decided to wake up early today for it's her big day. She went to the public beach to just look around at people. How could everyone here be so happy? She asked in her mind. Everyone here smiles as if they don't have problems.When it was around 2:00 PM she decided to go back to her cottage. It's almost time and she had a wonderful lunch and morning so what's there to miss?She packed up her things in her bag. She decided to wear a plain white cocktail dress today, she put on a shade touch of nude matte lipstick, put on some mascara and comb her hair. No messy buns today, it's her funeral.Once she was satisfied with how she looked, she went out of her room and put the key on the doorstep. She hop on to her bike and started to drive at the meet
William was still catching his breath as he got home. He looked at where Brieanna always park her rented bike but there's nothing he saw. So he tossed his head up, frustrated that he couldn't find her!Why would she say have a good life if she won't do anything? She could've said good night! He thought. Ugh! Where could she be?William was about to go when at the far side of the next cliff he saw her spreading her arms. It looked like she was feeling the wind on her face. Her hair was being blown. He sighed in relief that he finally saw her alive and standing.He closed his eyes and looked down for a moment to finally catch his breath. The moment he look back at where she's at his eyes widened, she was nowhere. He frowned at her sudden disappearance.
"Here, change your clothes with these for now," William said handing her his big clothes and his boxer. Brieanna took the clothes he handed. She cleared her throat and looked at the side. "Thank you," she said shyly. "We'll get you new clothes tomorrow. More comfortable ones than my old clothes. Also you can change in that room," he said and pointed a room. "My room is in the opposite side. You're staying with me while you're in this island." She couldn't say anything, it's embarrassing that she's going to stay in William's place. "I'm going out to get us food. Don't try to kill yourself. Be good and feel at home." After saying that William left. Brieanna was still wrapped up in
"You sure you're okay wearing that?" William asked Brieanna for the 8th time now. Brieanna rolled her eyes as she closes the car door. "I told you it's fine. You helped me too much." "You help me more," William uttered and started to drive away. Brieanna doesn't know how to act around him anymore. She's quiet shy that she's indebted to him. At some point, she thinks they were destined to meet. How does a stranger save her like they already knew each other? "Do you surf?" He asked all a sudden that snapped Brie from thinking. "Hmm...no, I don't really." "Well, know how to?" He asked again.
At the house Brieanna immediately changed her clothes. She hasn't returned his clothes because she wanted to wash it first before giving it back to him.After changing, she went out and head to the dining table. She sat down facing William who was already eating. She remember what Dianne told her.New girl William brought...She continues to think about it, totally forgetting that William was in front of her."You know you can ask me if it's really that bothering," William uttered, snapping her out of her thoughts.Brieanna blinked thrice and cleared her throat. She took some hotdogs and bread completely disregarding what he uttered.
