song = my tears ricochet - taylor swift 315 WORDS BABY "i was there for you." i stared at the phone in my hand, gripping it like it was the only thing holding me together. it was, in a way. "i was there for you, and you left me." i couldn't move much as the photos from my best friend and my shared photo album played on repeat with pictures of us throughout the years. i was frozen; the shock from her death had slowly worn off and been replaced with a new emotion: numbness. i dropped my phone. i couldn't bear to see our smiling faces staring up at me anymore. i heard a knock at my door but made no move to open it. my mother peeked her head through the door, staring at me with somber eyes. "i brought you some food." i stared at her blankly as she pushed open the door, letting the sunlight creep into the void my mind was trapped in. she had a white grocery bag on one arm and gently set it aside on the ground. my room was practically empty at this point, minus the bed and the nightstand my parents insisted i keep. i wasn't able to walk into my room without crying for the past few days until my father removed most of my furniture, which sydney and i painted together in the summer of our freshman year. "you need to eat." she was still staring at me, expecting me to reply, when i haven't said a word in days. she sat in front of me, holding both of my hands in hers. "i know that nothing prepared you for her death, but we're going to get through this together." she kissed my forehead before i burst into tears again. i was pulled into her embrace, and my vision clouded over, the scene of That Day replaying in my head like a bad movie.
