Name: My Most Outgoing Friend Died by Suicide
Author: A Passing Guest in the Flow of Time

Synopsis

My most vivacious friend killed herself.

The news headline was restrained, just one line: “Teenage girl falls to her death, suspected academic pressure.”

But I knew that wasn’t true.

Lin Miaomiao was the kind of person who would hum and spin around twice just to go downstairs and pick up a delivery. How could she have quietly jumped from the eighteenth floor? Stranger still, on the day she fell, she was wearing a white dress, fully made up, with even a smile on her lips.

The coroner said it was suicide. Her parents said it was suicide. Everyone said it was suicide.

Until I found a note among her belongings. It had just one crooked line of writing: “Chen Jing, save me.”

The date was three days after she died.

My phone suddenly vibrated. An account called “Is Miaomiao Happy Today?” sent me a photo. Lin Miaomiao was sitting in a dim room, wearing that white dress and flashing a peace sign at the camera.

A message appeared below the photo: “My best friend, why didn’t you come to my funeral?”

Just as I was about to reply, her profile picture went dark. When I refreshed the page, the account had been deleted.

Then my phone’s photo gallery opened by itself and began flipping through the pictures, one by one. They were all photos of Lin Miaomiao. In every one, she seemed to be watching me.
