A girl is confronted in the bathroom by a friend of 6 years, whom appears quite troubled....The girl asks her friend what is wrong.....her friend doesn't answer her until the girl touches her shoulder....then she breaks down and tells the girl what is wrong ......giving her quite a list of things. Then the friend (in confidence) pulls out a razor blade and tells the girl that she is thinking about using it.....The girl knows her friend quite well and knows that she is distressed and that the friend has hurt herself before.....so she asks her friend to give her the razor the friend refuses putting it in her pocket.....Then the friend slips the blade in her own pocket and starts hitting her head against a locker, the girl stops her and trys to hug her friend until her friend finally hugs her back and then goes to leave. The friend (still worried about her friend) follows her out....on the way out the friend punches a door, and the girl patiently trys to get the blade from her friend. The friend does not give up the blade, the girl asks her one more time to give her the blade and the friend still refusses.....the girl goes back to her class and tells her ff teacher that she needs to go talk to a friend before she does something she shouldn't......the teacher takes the girl to the side and coaxes her into telling him what is going on, he calls the appropriate people and the girl is taken by some one to give all the info she knows....and her friend happens to see her when the people take her from her class....The girl's in tears for hurting her friend. but feels she had to do it....and she is told that what she did is also the role she takes as an emt....and that her friend was asking for help by telling her what she did.....The next day the friend confronts her telling her three things ....1 she is sorry she scared her....2 she kind of wants tosay thank you b/c now she can move away from her terrible home life....3 she never wants to talk to her again.....The girl thinks "Great I saved my friend just to lose her" then she stops and thinks..."But it is better for me to have saved her and lost her as a friend than to have remained quiet and let her be lost to the world..."
