Creep was glancing at the forum when she received a call on Skype - it was from Ethan, her newest 'friend.'
'I....I think I'm going to do it tonight.' Ethan said with fear in his voice.
'You said that last time but you backed out in the end,' she said calmly.
'I wasn't ready then, I-I just kept thinking about my parents....they're gonna be crushed.'
'They'll move on,' Creep said coldly 'you can end your suffering right now. You don't need to keep fighting,' her voice became more soothing and warm. She felt giddy at the thought of what was about to happen, she just needed to close the deal.
'You won't be alone, Ethan. I'll be here with you until the end.'
Ethan didn't respond for a while but she could hear him breathing as he thought about it.
'Okay, I'm going to do it.'
Creep's heart began to beat faster in anticipation.
'Have you decided on the method?' She asked.
'I live in a High Rise, I'm thinking of jumping.' He whispered.
'Yes, that's a good way to go. Are you going to do it now?'
'No, I think I'm going to do it later during the night.'
'You'll lose your nerve by then, you should do it now.' She pressured.
'I don't know...'
'Are you a coward?' she hissed, 'or are you brave enough to say enough is enough and go through with it?'
She heard quiet sobs.
'Okay, I'll do it now.'
She heard the sound of a window opening followed by the sounds of Ethan climbing out of it.
'Thank you for everything, I couldn't have done this without you...' he said in a daze before jumping to his death. A rush of euphoria engulfed Creep and she felt at peace for a brief moment.
She grabbed an empty flower pot from a nearby cupboard and planted a seed in it.
'Another flower to add to the collection,' she sang contently.
