Model: Deidra~ D.

~~~
It was a monday afternoon when my phone signaled a new text message. I pick it up to find depressing thoughts from my friend:

' Rachel, I can't take this anymore. I don't know what to do anymore, there are so many problems I can't handle!'

I sent her a text message back as she soon explained to me about her boyfriend abusing her. She told me that she had had enough and told him that.

' I got selected to be a model too, but the training for it costs 2300 dollars. My parents couldn't afford it.. I was really looking forward to it..'

I knew that I could handle her in this state, and began talking her out of her mood like I always did.

Two weeks later, on a sunny afternoon, before our school had let out the intruder bell had sounded. I had crawled to a corner of the room while everyone else ran behind book shelves and piled desk and file cabinets in front of the door.

Gun shots sounded from beyond it.

Everyone screamed, but I remembered a very distinct voice from all the rest. It was Deidra's.

Sounds of gun fire echoed through the hall, the police yelled for back up.

Everything stopped.

Silence..

I quickly pushed everything back from the door- to my teacher's dissmay - and scrambled outside..

There she was, crying against the wall with blood splatters on her beautiful white blouse. Her boyfriend laid dead only 4 feet in front of her.

That night,

Deidra had taken her life..

This picture was taken a few months ago, when she was happy. Deidra has always been my best friend. I always thought she was beautiful, but that damned to hell boyfriend of her's had always put her down.

I ask that if any of you find your friends in trouble, please try hard to protect them, not only from other people but themselves also. I could have been there, so much more, for her. Now she's gone.


In memory of Deidra
