Saving a Life
You're walking to grab lunch when you see a crowd gathered around a building. You look up and see that someone is standing on the ledge, looking to jump. You hear a police office close to you mention that the person is about to commit suicide. He also mentions the person's name: and it's someone you know! Write a scene where you attempt to stop the jumper from jumping.
