I have been with Jackobo since the day my mother had been buried, two years ago.
He was my fathers best friend.
On that day, it was sunny and beautiful. I just wish that in my own world it felt like and looked like that, but it didnt and I had a feeling it would never be.
It was raining and raining in my view of life. The sky wasnt pouring water though-no not cats and dogs- tears, my tears. But one day the raining had stop. Everything was still the same though when it had been raining, cold, dark, and daunt.
I wanted to cry for her. I just couldnt though, I couldnt even sob, I had cried when I saw her being killed. I was crying when she was singing to me, and when she had finally stopped breathing. I was still crying when my father came home. I had cried all day long and I understood, she was gone...forever. So...I would cry forever. At least, I wanted to, but I couldnt. That was okay, because my heart was crying for her and it always would be.
When we were at her grave I stared at the white rose that was sticking up from the ground, I looked up and saw a huge tree. Right there I realized something, she was in a better place...Anything was better then living...Anything...Even death.



This is from a story that I'm working on.The main character, Oukow, is also my rpc and Jackobo is her pal. Hope you enjoyed the second chapter.

Pretty good, but you had too many conjuctions beginning sentences (And, but). I dont' mind that occasionally and I even do it, but you may have overdone it a bit.

I liked it! It was descriptive, sad, and well-written.

I need to find a book with parts of speech in it. Do you think should I look under "Grammar"?

"I had cried when I saw her been killed."

I believe it should have been "Being"
It would read easier
Also.. it seemed a little.. redundant
and you may want to try expanding your word choice
because you used some words alot..a
and after a while.. it feels like you are reading
the same thing over and over again.

Just a few suggestions.
This was good though.
