Finally, you are on the roof of a thirty-floor building. It is the time to end this miserable life. You have been thinking about this for months, and decide to be here today.
[[move towards the edge->step1]]Your lost everything.
Your family, friends, even your [cat]<cat|(click-replace:?cat)[cute, little black cat you adopted last month.]
You feel that living is just full of suffering right now.
This world seems boring.
"I am [|transparent>[not]]<num1|(mouseover-replace:?num1)[ [[(not)]]] [[ready]] to end this life." you say to yourself.You keep moving towards the edge of the roof.
[[continue->step2]]At this moment, you come up with the images of your friends, although you barely have any.
You remember that except the debts you have, you are unemployment, and how lonely you are, there are other things that you can expect in this world.
You are not old. You still have time to realize your goals.
Are you kidding me? My life is too tragic to live any more. There is nothing to anticipate. [[I'm ready->ready]] to end my life
[[Start heading home->Ending A]]Ending A
It is not the first time you give up jumping off from there.
Are you not brave enough?
Or you just can't forgive yourself.
Anyway, you will see the sunrise again from your tiny bedroom.Suddenly your [phone]<phone| rings.
(click:?phone)[An old iPhone 5, which you have used for decades because you never had free money to buy a new one. Some problems started to occur recently, especially phone calls happen back and forth.
This phone is your favorite thing right now]
[[find the phone from your pocket]]
[[recall more about this "old" phone]]
[[ignore it and keep moving->step3-A]]You got the phone from your right pocket. It is from your friend Andrew.
[Andrew...]<person|(click-replace:?person)[Andrew is your best friend. You guess you can say that. He is the only one who encouraged you to find a job and start a new life.]
You start to image what is he going to talk about.
[Maybe...]<maybe1|(click-replace:?maybe1)[An invitation to a dinner in his house?
[Maybe...]<maybe2|(click-replace:?maybe2)[Some jobs you might get?
[I am definitly going to pick up this phone]<tragic|(click-replace:?tragic)[suddenly, a cat jumps from behind, running towards your right hand, specifically to your phone. He jumps an incredible hight, and hits the phone with his head.
Your phone flies a perfect curve towards the edge of the roof.
[[I need to chase it right now]]
[[I can do nothing but watching it falling off the roof]]]]]It seems that getting this phone is the only good thing happened in your short life.
You friend Andrew suggested you to get a phone, so he can contact you easier.
There are also precious pictures in this phone, which you took with your old family, your best friend, and the cat.
You keep recalling more and more details about the phone, but you also noticed a cat is approching from behind.
[[why there is a cat on the thirtieth floor?]]"I cannot miss this phone call!" You say to yourself.
Andrew always brings good news.
It might change your life this time.
You immediately start running towards the phone, even you can predict that it will fall out of the roof.
[[I need to get it no matter what!! (run even faster)]]
[[stop right before falling]]You become more depressed because Andrew always tells you good news. All you think is ending your life faster.
[[Keep moving towards the edge->step3-A]]You speed up while getting close to the edge.
[And...]<jump|(click-replace:?jump)[jump out of the roof
[...]<count1|(click-replace:?count1)[you catch the phone
[[continue->falling A]]]]You are standing next to the "death" right now.
The small town you are living in is under your feet
You spent most of your life in here
Now you feel is the perfect time to end your short and unfortunate life.
Before you jump
you notice that there is a black bag next to you
with a letter and a pair of shoes beside the bag
"Maybe someone left it here before suicide" you whisper, "just like me?"
He wants someone to read his final words, you think
[[Read the letter->letter B]]
[[Search the bag->search-B-1]]
[[There is no time to care about others.
I should just keep goin->falling A]] You are barely on the edge.
You managed to stop yourself.
And You got the phone!!!
[But]<but|(click:?but)[ you don't have time to rest.
The cat behind you is rushing towards you.
"What should I do?" It's hard to come up with too many ideas in two seconds.
[[hold the phone in front of your chest to protect it]]
[[try to dodge the speedy cat first]]]You notice that you are falling from the thirtieth floor. You come up with some impressive things happened in your life so far.
You once had [...nothing? Your life is so bored]<num1|
(click-replace:?num1) [a family. Wait, you ex-wife just said that she is coming to visit you this weekend, she wants to talk.
Friends, most of your friends left you. But wait, your best friend Andrew is always there. He calls you every week and talks about everything with you.
A stable work. Andrew, again, said he is looking for job interviews for you.

You are on the newspaper the other day.

The cat seems get attracted by the ring of your phone. He is walking directly towards your right leg with his head up, staring at your pocket.
[...]<num1|(click-replace:?num1)[faster and faster
"I need to do something or I can't even pick up my phone. The cat is going to hurt me," you think.
[[simply run away from the cat]]
[[make funny face to scare the cat]]
[[try to fight the cat directly]]]It seems doesn't work.
The cat runs faster than you and catch up pretty quickly when you're getting close to the edge.
the edge is close and the view out there is scary
[[I will die with my phone (close your eyes)->falling A]]
[[I need to stop right now]]It worked!!!
The cat got scared and run away.
Now, no one can bother you.
It's time to [[answer the phone.]]The fight lasts longer than you thought.
You win, of course. But you also get a grasp on your arm as a "gift".
The fight actually makes you feel better. Maybe you just need a place to waste more energy.
[Now it's the time to answer the phone call.]<stop|(click-replace:?stop)[The ring stops when you are trying to get your phone out.
It was from your best friend Andrew.

It was from your best friend Andrew.
He brought you the best news you can think of right now.
He actually got a job interview for me.
It is to be truck driver in another city.
The only problem is that the job has a prerequisite that you need to [have a place to live in that city]<num1|(click-replace:?num1)[have a place to live in that city. means money to rent a place.]
[continue]<cont1|(click-replace:?cont1)[You hesitate. You want that job but renting a house is something you've never been able to afford. You are still living in the old house you bought with your family.
While thinking about the job, you...
[[move towards the edge uncousciously]]
[[still moving towards the edge]]]You keep thinking about the job interview.
But also walking uncousciously to the edge
[[continue->step3-B]] "A job with an undoable requirement," you sighed.
Although you are thankful to Andrew's help, you still decide to end your life today.
[[continue->step3-B]] the cat hit you right in the middle of your chest, in front of the edge of the roof.

[[Even I came to suicide, I don't want to get killed by a cat]]]Killing by a cat is a shame to you
You tried your best to climb up the roof.

The person wrote this letter also wanted to suicide at some point
but you can't come up with any name that you've heard jumping off from this building. At least not this month.
Maybe it's because you stop watching news after you divorced with your wife?
Maybe she just hesitate and went back?
Thinking more about these things only makes you more upset.
What else you can do?
