Sometimes in the brightest moment,lies the darkest end

There once was a boy named Cristian,,, he was a swell young man, yet he didn't have much friends because he was a odd person and he didn't have a girlfriend and his parents weren't always at home so he was lonely,but he was a good kid.

His biggest dreams was to be an actor,and because of his stupendous grades, his excellent personality, his dream came true. He was casted as the main character in the play named " Blood to save" which was about a man having to commit suicide to save a girl from the Mafia, and on set he made a lot of friends with the cast and crew,, everything was going very well,,, until the day of the showcase.

During the intermission he received a voicemail from the police stating that there were criminals invading his house and his mom and dad came home,,,they killed his father and gang raped his mother to death, then it was time for the closing scene where he commit suicide to save the girl life, the prop disigner gave him the foam butcher knife with a button that will spill fake blood,yet he got a real one,then went on stage.

When he entered he was tearing up, and the actress said her lines,and he said his "don't worry dearest,, you'll be safe now, you'll be safe forever,,this is,,,is,,,,this is the only way,all I can say is, goodbye" then he got the knife and penetrated his chest, he felt the cold blade enter and stinging his skin, then he felt it cutting his ribs cage, then blood poured out of the wound, then he felt his body shutting down. The pain was over,now it's just him falling down to the ground with blur lights going bright then... nothing.
The actress noticed and started to scream bloody murder,the prop disigner noticed the fake knife still on the table an ran for help, yet when the lights blacked out all the audience applaud with the idea of a great show, thinking all was an act. When the light went back up,,, Cristians eyes were open and started to fade away,where now his blue eyes was moon, Cristian made history, the ending with his death on stage.
