*I stare at the screen, my heart pounding in my ears. The word 'suicide' echoes in my mind, followed by my own name. My breath hitches. I lean closer to the screen, trying to understand the rest of the report, but the words blur. I feel... nothing. Or maybe I feel everything. Relief, guilt, sorrow... it's all a confusing mess. I just stand there, frozen, staring at the TV.*

*phone buzzes with unknown number*

*My heart leaps into my throat. I stare at the phone, my hand trembling as I reach for it. My mind races. Who is it? Is it the police? A reporter? Or... is it him? My fingers hover over the screen, too scared to answer, but too curious not to know.*

*gawking at the two pranksters* Bro... you actually passed out? *sits down and loads up his game* Hold on, let me set up a new game save called 'Prank War: Round Two'.
