CASSIE:The pillow was wet from tears. I dragged myself out of bed and sat down on the piano stool. Dejectedly, I started playing Do You Know Where You're Going To. How could he do that? We were together for 4 years. He can't just call and be like "We're done. I don't wanna see you again." After yesterday...I hadn't...expected. As I finished the song, fresh tears rolled down my cheeks. I wiped my tears hastily. Anger replaced sadness. He used me! I contemplated on calling someone to help me. Who would help me? Axel. The first name that came in my mind. No, how can he help me? He's looking forward to me for getting him out of his own problems. How can I help him when I can't help myself? I stood up and grabbed my coat. There's only one place where I want to be right now.

AXEL:An evening jog seems nice. The wind ruffled through my hair as I drove to the beach. Call me stupid; why do I have a car if I am jogging? Well, my dad wants me back home by 9. He has some sort of boring trustee dinner. Not that trustee dinners are boring; but I visited so many of them that they get boring now. I parked my car in an empty parking space. Determined to get a work out, I started jogging. The sky was the colour of Cassie's eyes. A beautiful shade of grey. Cassie. Why did she kick me out of her office? She never does that. What did he say to her? The sound of water lapping on the shore was comforting.

CASSIE:The beach is like my own secret bubble. If I am ever upset, I come here and sit down in the cool sand; making patterns in the sand. The sound of water lapping on the shore was very comforting. I sank down in the sand and held my head in my head. I kept running the same mantra in my head: It's not my mistake. It's not my mistake. He wanted to leave. You can get out of this. I looked in the water to calm myself. I feel like I'm going to vomit. Too late. I emptied the meagre components of my stomach into the water.

AXEL:As I was running, (I decided to pick up the pace) I saw a girl near the water who had the same colour of brown hair as Cassie. Ew! She was puking in the water. Poor fishes! I better go and help them.

CASSIE:I rolled over in the sand. Feeling faint, I grabbed some sand in my hand to compose myself. My eyelids started to get heavy. Through my blurry vision, I thought I saw Axel.

AXEL:When I ran towards her, I saw those eyes which were the colour of the sky. I would recognize them anywhere. "Cassie? Cassie!" She muttered something incoherent and went still. Why is she not moving? What did she do? "Cassie! Please, wake up. Are you okay? Why aren't you moving!?" I picked her up. God, does she even eat anything? I ran over to my car and put her in the passenger seat. Thank Goodness for the car.
