While the World Disappears

It Has To Be A Lie

They don't think Jax was murdered." She says sadly. My face drops.
There's no way Jax was murdered. He wasn't suicidal, He was always happy. Someone had to kill him. I can't believe it. There's no sing of it being suicide. The police are lying. This can't be true. Jax you wouldn't do this. I know you wouldn't.
"They told me they went back to the scene to investigate more. They ended up finding a gun with Jax's fingerprints. I never believed my son would want to be the type of person to make this type of decision. Jax was perfectly fine and happy. I guess it's true what everyone says about the people who are the most happy. I want to be able to give a chance to Jax's closest friends to speak up. First up is Jax's Girlfriend, Evelyn. Still in shock I get up from a tap on my shoulder from Brandon. I come back to reality and walk to the stage.
"Jax was someone you look at, and your immediately happy. It wasn't just his looks but his smi... his smile. It lit up the room. It was the most amazing thing I've ever seen and experienced in my life. He was truly an angel. Everyone who knew Jax knew it was not like anybody else. He was different. A special different. He wanted to do so much in life. He would be alive today if I didn't invite him to my performance." The crowd quietly shouts no.
"You have to admit. I made him go to that concert. I wanted him to watch me perform and be proud of me. I wanted him to see how hard I was working for it. I don't believe it was a suicide. Jax isn't like that. He never was unhappy and showing signs. Please y'all have to believe me. I know he didn't kill himself. Please! Please listen!" I cry out. Brandon comes on stage to bring me down back to my seat. I cry in his arms. Jax's mom walks back on stage.
"Thank you Evelyn. The next person here is someone who recently got back from aboard. Kace you may come up on stage." Both me and Brandon's eyes go wide. We both look up to make sure it's the Kace we know. We both are in shock.
"I know most of you here haven't ever seen me before or know who I am. My name is Kace. I was Jax's childhood friend. Jax was someone who I was truly inspired by. He was an amazing son, wonderful boyfriend and a beautiful friend. Life is so messed up as it is. We all go through different situations and struggle. Sometimes it can be loneliness, depression, even jealousy.
What does jealousy have to do with sadness I ask myself?
"I don't know what Jax was having to deal with therefore I don't know what to think. But one thing I know for sure is that he isn't suicidal. We talked every night and he was always so happy about the littlest things. He texted me right before the time he passed away. He was so excited to go to Evelyn's performance. He kept bragging about how amazing she is. I was happy for him. He was living his life. Making sure it was the best. But it didn't get to end that way. We will all find out the truth eventually. Let's all just wait and see." He walks off stage and exits the building, Everyone is left confused.
Why didn't Kace say anything about Jax. He knew who I was this whole time and he didn't think to tell me why he really was here. I need answers. I need to prove Jax was murdered.
