Drowning

Sinking

Crying

You were only seventeen

The pressure built up on the sides of the ship's windows, the murky water was thundering against the windows, causing them to display cracks. The students were screaming and crying for their mothers.

You started to cry a little out of fear when the windows broke, and water started to flood in, You whipped your phone out, to text your mother again.

"In case I don't survive, I love you mum"

"?"

You put your phone back into your pocket. and stared into my eyes. It looked like you were an angel already, but tears were streaming down your eyes. You kissed my forehead, before throwing me out of the window.

I was facing downwards, I could see a few decks below us, there were people who were bleeding and trying to break the windows.

I floated away, the ship becoming more and more distant, and sinking ever-deeper into the ocean, Tears were flowing out of my button eyes, mixing in with the salt of the sea. The strong currents pushed me so close to land, that i could hear parents and family, screaming and crying.

"It's a homocide!"

"My son!"

And then i heard your mother's faint voice.

"Deku?"
