Her eyeliner smeared.
She looked up into the mirror.
"Mirror, why do show me things I don't want to see?" she asked.
Her tangled, black hair fell over her emerald green eye.
She stood straight up and turned sideways.
Her stomach was so skinny, you could see her bones.
"I must not eat. I must be skinny like the pretty girls." she would say.
She grabbed a bottle of pills.
"...It would be so peaceful....wouldn't it?"
She twisted the cap.
Tears blurred her vision.
She cried out help.
Her phone buzzed.
She turned around, crying.
Grabbing her phone, she dropped the pills.
It was a text from her best friend.
It read, "Hey, girly. I just wanted to let you know that you're the best! I'm so proud of you! You have made through thick and thin!"
She cried out and managed a smile.
You see, you could very easily save a life. Keep encouraging your friends. Show others that people care and love them so much. Always stay positive. Don't give up! Stay strong! <3
