If I scream, would it show? Would anyone notice, or would I be left behind? Death comes after life, as life leads to death, so is it okay to feel so...numb? Or should I scream? Everyone else is crying and my cousin says I'm the only one not to do so. I've also noticed; how could I not? I'm weird: I should cry or have an emotional breakdown or feel something, but instead, I'm numb. It was supposed to be about her, but I stood to the side with my friends, not knowing what to say when they said, "You look like her," or "I'm sorry," or one of the millions of other choice popular sayings. I wanted to talk about her, or just about anything, but everyone only said "I'm sorry," and left the conversation, tense. My friends didn't know her all too well either, but at least we could talk and hide away from the unoriginal and bland feelings. Honestly, the most original saying I heard was mainly the particular situation in which her ex said, "You look like her," and how he was her old boyfriend
