I've waited for days, but you never came.

Not even when I was in trouble, when I was depressed or when I needed emotional support.

You just never came.

I don't understand, was it something I did to upset you? Was it because I did something wrong? Did I mess up?

I don't know what I did, please tell me.

Come back, come back and tell me.

Please, I promise I won't mess it up again, I won't say anything to hurt you but I'll be very honest with you. That's what you always wanted right? For me to be honest, for me to get a good life, good grades...good friends.

I'll make you dinner, I'll wash the dishes after. I'll wash the front porch, repaint the fence, do whatever you want me to. I just want you to come back.

I've been crying myself to bed for days, and I sat there on the door for the first few days, be it raining or not, I sat there waiting for you. And when it rained, I let the rain wash away my tears, hoping no one would see them.

I can't bear this anymore. I can't. I need you to come back, come home.

I still go to school because I know you'll probably want me to.

I'll vacuum the living room and mow the garden. I'll fulfill all the goals you ever set for me, I'll never argue with you again, I promise.

I've been sitting outside the garden after school, I've been asking the neighbours, asking the kids if they've seen you anywhere but no one has. I asked the sun, the moon but the ignore me like how you do. Maybe it's because I-

No. I've figured it out, I've figured out why you left.

It's because I got mom killed, right?

But that...I'm grieving over that too. It wasn't my fault I survived the crash and mom didn't. I love mom, I would never kill her.

But the reason my whole world didn't collapse after she died was because I had you, but now you're gone too and I've got no one left.

Please come back, let's go through this together. I can't live alone, not again I can't. It's too heart-breaking to wake up every morning to realize no one's going to give you a morning hug. I feel like my world has been clouded by dark stormy clouds but the rain never falls because I've run out of tears to cry.

I've lost mom, I've lost you. My life is practically meaningless and I don't get wy I still struggle to survive alone. I still check the windows everyday in case you would be at the end of the street, at the front yard, at the doorstep. But you never are.

Only the wind and dry leaves visit me. But they leave because I didn't let them in so they didn't like me anymore. Maybe you left too because I wouldn't let you in, maybe my life now..is what I turned it into.

I did this.

It was my fault mom died, it was my fault you left.

I'm sorry, please come back..

I'm so sorry..

*******

ALRIGHTT my first sad short story :C Well I hope you felt at least 5% sad lmao-

who do you think 'you' is?

Originally, 'you' is a ghost friend that the main character has, a ghost friend that is the spirit of the main character's sibling. Try to re-process the whole story and see if this makes sense '^^

And honestly, I felt this character ( but don't worry my life isn't so bad-) when I was writing this story. I enjoyed it :]

Hope you continue to read on!
