Monday, October 17th, 2021. 8:00 am Mr. Jones is talking about the memorial service being held this Sunday. I'm sitting in the back next to River and Serenity, half-listening to him talk. I was staring out the window when I jumped because I felt a hand on my leg. I look at her to see my girlfriend River trying to comfort me. I don't need confirmation. I need answers. "I know she didn't kill herself Riv" I whispered "Then how do you explain the cuts on her wrist?" She reposed a little annoyed with me by now. I sighed. It doesn't make sense. I have this deep feeling like I'm missing something. "Ok, why don't we go through her stuff after class. See if we can find something to put her mind at ease?" River whispered in my ear. She always knew how much I loved Ivory. I smiled at her. "Thank you" Mr. Jones got cut off mid-sentence by the loudspeaker. "CAN MS SALEM CROWWOOD, MISS SERENITY LI, AND MISS RIVER WHITLOCK PLEASE COME TO THE HEADMASTERS OFFICE. AGAIN, MISS SALEM CROWWOOD, MISS SERENITY LI, AND MISS RIVER WHITLOCK COME TO THE HEADMASTERS OFFICE." I looked at them. We were all friends and hung out together with Ivory but she was my best friend and Serenity was Rivers.
