A Hidden Meaning

Back in middle school, my mind wasn't mature enough to think too deeply. My friend suddenly asked if jumping from the third floor would kill someone. I didn't think much of it at the time and pondered it too. I thought, 'Probably not, but you'd definitely break some bones.' Then my friend suddenly said, 'This is inciting suicide.' I was a bit startled and felt a little wronged, but I didn't dwell on it and the feeling passed. Thinking back now, maybe my friend wanted me to comfort them or stop them.
