And So She Did
by Jaime Johnesee

The tendrils grew from her skin like antennae, causing her to feel everything and everyone around her. It was madness, horror, hell. 

All the pain, anguish, and torment carried by those near her crept into her mind and eventually her soul. The misery and depression took root there and thrived, keeping those external antennae rooted in negativity and growing internally, exponentially. 

For months, the excruciating emotions all turned to one single unending, unstoppable thought; kill yourself. 

And so she did.
