section7mfu“Good morning, Sal! What’s going on at the corner?”
“Morning, Napoleon, Illya. A dead woman was found behind a steering wheel by a passerby an hour ago.”
“What!” Illya exclaimed. “Do the police know what happened?”
“Yes, sadly it was a suicide. She left a note.”
The partners entered Reception, received their badges and then went to the Commissary for coffee.
“I can’t imagine feeling so alone that I would end my life.”
“I agree. Napoleon, you would tell me if you felt isolated and in pain?”
“I would.”
“I also. It is good to have a friend.”
“It is.”

Date: 2017-03-20 04:44 pm (UTC)It's hard to imagine feeling it necessary to take one's life. I've been through some very bad times in myself going as far back as the 80's, but never even thought of taking my life. ( losing a husband who cheated on me because i couldn't have kids and he wanted them...now, losing my job, losing my house....lots more) I've survived it all...and then some.
I had a friend who thought about killing herself but I told her to call me anytime she was feeling that desperate. I talked her down from committing suicide at 3 in the morning once, thank God. She never got that depressed again.
I've discovered though I'm still very alone, I am loved. You don't have to have people with you physically to know that.... Now days a friend is just a phone call, text, email, or FaceTime away.

Date: 2017-03-20 05:16 pm (UTC)This drabble was inspired by a suicide who was found in her car down the street from where I live in Nevada the day I wrote it. Napoleon's thought is mine: I can't imagine getting to the place where I would think suicide is the answer. Homicide maybe, but never suicide, LOL!
I'm glad you think it's good. Thank you!
