Delusion

Michael stared at the sunset. A huge grin plastered on his face. He sits alongside Drew. “Isn’t this the best? “Michael says, turning to Drew. Drew doesn’t respond, he continues to stare at the sunset. His eyes slowly filled up with tears. Michael understands, this will be their last moment together. He knew this day would come, they couldn’t avoid it. Drew has been his closest friend. They both weren’t good at making friends with other kids. This might explain why Michael was so drawn towards Drew. Ever since then, they have constantly hung out together. All of that was about to come to an end soon.
Drew still hadn’t uttered a single word. His eyes were wide and his body was shaking. Michael reached out and grabbed Drew’s shoulder. Drew jolted away, tears now streaming down his face. “It’s going to be okay”, Michael says as he hugged Drew. Drew trembled in Michael arms, dread consuming his mind. All Michael could do was comfort his friend, and thank him for letting him enjoy this last moment with him. Of course Drew did not respond, he couldn’t. The duct tape made his words unintelligible, the rope bound his hands together. Michael didn’t want Drew spoiling this moment he has been waiting for his whole life. He grabbed the knife behind him and made one more look towards Drew, his closest friend. Knowing this was the last time he would ever see him again.

    Wow, this was very emotional. Esoecially the last line. I loved the details, it made the story come alive and it helped me feel as if I was in the story. The imagery was great.
