The Last Sunday of August

By S.L Walls

Both Sunday and August crave the relief of death. Both navigating their own individual battles, an unlikely fragile connection forms between them. Will they be able to cure each others infections of oblivion? Or is them meeting simply a different path to the same end?

Sunday felt like a bruise that wouldn't fade. Not the kind you got from bumping into furniture, but the deeper kind. The kind that settled in your bones. The abuse she endured from her own parents made the world feel like a cage built of neglect. So, she decided on thirty days; thirty days, and her abhorrent life would come to an end.
Although, not long after her fateful decision, she meets someone. Someone that craves the kiss of death just as much as she does.

August lost his one and only brother, leaving him swimming in the despair of darkness. And now, he wants to follow in his brothers footsteps, seemingly unable to deal with the weight of guilt and loss. Until he sees her, a girl just as lonely, distraught and deadened as he is. Maybe even more so. But one look at her, and he's no longer on the precipice. One look, is all it took. And in that very moment, he decides to make it his life's mission to become Sundays cure.
