Ronny was laying on his back, arms crossed behind his head as he lay on the ground. Meanwhile, Poppy had her legs crossed and was in the process of making a homemade flower crown.

"Sadness is, I think, is one of the worst emotions to experience." said Ronny, watching her hands work to make the crown. Sometimes he wished that he didn't feel the way he did. Most of the time the feelings were caused by his own thoughts and were ridiculous.

But this was Poppy and he was comfortable with her, almost comfortable enough to tell her all of the darkest thoughts he's ever had. "Keep going," she encouraged, listening closely.

"It swallows you, the sadness, and envelopes you in this cold little endless pit of hopelessness. And your stomach seems to sink and your chest feels hollow a-and.." the most heartbreaking sound came from his lips, Ronny's words breaking as unwanted tears fell down his red cheeks. She tossed the unfinished flower crown aside and wrapped her arms around his shaking body. "I just don't want to be here anymore, Poppy," he cried, the words muffled. He hasn't meant to cry, he thought it made him look vulnerable and weak. But he was crying because of how utterly sad he was. Poppy realized that her only friend didn't want to be here on this earth and she felt just terribly sad as he was. She wondered if he had felt the same way like when she was drunk and about to jump off the building.

Ronny had such a lovely mind and people deserve to know what this beautiful boy has to say. But she didn't want to think about that right now, she needed to think about Ronny.

So Poppy held him tighter to her, and she allowed herself to cry with him.

sometimes we all just need a moment to break down and cry, for a fragment of time, so we can get better (or at least hope we will)

and Ronny needed to do just that

I don't know how long I'm gonna make this story but I have a lot of drafts already written so who knows lol

Hope you liked it and have a good rest of the day/night
