Yep. Just jump.
You know, in Japan, or China, or.. somewhere over there, a man was sitting on top of a bridge, mulling over his suicide. He drew a lot of attention; cops came, the bridge was shut down.. everyone was trying to talk him out of it. Then, a frustrated old man snuck by the police (I guess, something. Maybe he said he was family) and went up to the man. He shook his hand, said something, patted him on the back and pushed him off the bridge.
After being arrested, the old man stated the man was taking up too much of society's time. No one has time to sit around and coax someone out of suicide.
…..
Just, you know, world news.
Happened a long time ago, though.

I remember that news story! That old man was my hero. He pushed the jumper onto a net/cushion that had been set up for hours, creating a massive traffic jam. No one got hurt. Somehow I don't think there will be such a net waiting for Ara on the next page.
