Part 11: Jasmine

1 Month later

        It's been a month since that wretched sequence of events that changed me forever. Sarah's the only one left to talk to anymore. Tom was dead, Ben was Dead, My girlfriend and her true lover killed Ben.  Angelo was arrested for harboring a fugitive. I didn't even know the guy but Sarah did. Shortly after the events I couldn't cope with all of the guilt of that night and I honestly had a hard time processing everything. Seeing the big picture of everything left more questions than answers when it came to Ben's death. Tom's death hit me the hardest and I felt like it was my fault. If I loved him or gave him a time of day than maybe he would still be here. In my grief and guilt, I tried to end my own life but I failed.  I was released from suicide watch a couple weeks ago. They put me on anti-depressants and therapy. All the bullshit and all I really needed was Sarah's company. Despite our broken hearts, we have made it. We scheduled to have Ben and Tom's funeral together. That day was coming up and there on that day we would stand, deteriorating in our guilt. We never loved them when they needed us. Our hearts loved the true villains above the ones that truly loved us.
