6S - In the Blink of an Eye

I gasped for air as I slowly slid down the wall, letting the phone crash to the floor. For the first time in my life my mind was completely blank. Then without warning it all came back at once; memories, thoughts and emotions. I could feel them all physically flooding back into my head, bringing a shooting headache with them. But it was all interrupted by the distant voice that had brought me the horrible news. A voice belonging to a person whose shoulder I would cry on, who would hold my hand as I said goodbye to you, a person I had still to meet.
