---- When I woke up, she was leaning over my bedside, eyes reddened and swollen. Her eyes lit up at once, then she pulled me into her arms without a word. Her beating heart was so warm it made my eyes sting with tears. I hugged her back, promising never to leave home again under her repeated "You're okay now". At 15, after I failed a class, Mom slapped me in front of everyone. She called me stupid, useless, and a drain on the family. That was the first time I thought about dying. I grabbed a dagger and slashed my wrists again and again. But Cherry found out. Trembling, she wrapped my hand in gauze and insisted on taking me to the infirmary. She asked, "Sherry, what will I do if you're gone? Are you going to abandon me?" As I looked at the blood-soaked bandage, regret crept ---- in. I couldn't leave Cherry alone. So, I promised her I wouldn't try to kill myself again. But that wonderful sister left me. If only I hadn't been busy that day. If only I hadn't muted my phone to avoid the constant messages.
