I had no idea where I was going but I kept walking. I ended up near the train station and saw Anika sitting on her phone waiting for the next train. How did I find her this quickly? I walked over to her to sit next to her. She looked up from her phone and smiled at me. "So where are we going?" I asked, still looking at her. She turned away to face her phone again. "We aren't going anywhere, I am. So go home, Isy." I didn't answer her and just kept staring. "Get up, I'm walking you home." She puts her hand out for me to grab. I heard the train coming and the moment it stopped in front of us I grabbed her hand and dragged her onto the train. "Wtf are you doing?" She says struggling to get free but it was too late, the train had already left.
*A week later*
The whole week went by pretty quickly. We spent most of our time sleeping at her family's house all over the city but it was time for us to return home. We got off the train and started to walk down the stairs of the train station. "It was you." I heard Charli at the bottom of the stairs and I just stared at her. I realised she wasn't looking at me but at Anika. The two of them just stared at each other until Anika continued to walk down the stairs till she got to the bottom and was face to face with Charli. Anika didn't say a word causing Charli to speak up again. "I read the journal, I only needed to read the first few pages to know who it was." She threw the book in my direction and I caught it. This book, I remember owning this book but I don't remember ever using it. Confused as to why she has it, I spoke up. "What are you talking about Charli? How did you know we would be here?" I asked her, waiting for a response. Instead Anika spoke, "I told her we would be here." "And why would you do that?" None of them answered again. "Can someone explain wtf is going on right now?" I yell, getting frustrated at being ignored. "Charli go home and let me explain everything to Isy." Anika says calmly but Charli doesn't move. "Charli leave so I can hear what Anika has to say." Charli gave me a look and walked away to the bus stop and entered the bus before it drove off.
"Can you explain now?" I ask hopefully. "Let's go." Was all she managed to say to me before she started walking away from the train station. We kept walking until we made it to the bridge where she stopped and leaned against the railing. "Open the book and read it" She said whilst lighting a smoke and blowing it in the direction of my face. I opened the notebook and started to read it. There is no way, it was my handwriting but i don't remember ever writing it. It was the explanation for everything. It explained the messages I found on my phone. The ones Anika had deleted, The ones who caused Hayleys death. It also explains what happened that night at Cadances. It was her. She had killed my friends. "How could you do this to us, to me?" My voice cracked with every word I tried to form. "I'm sorry" was all she managed to say. I couldn't believe it, my best friend who had my back always had killed Cadance and Hayley. My eyes were drenched with tears and my vision had become blurry. I tried to wipe away the tears but something heavy was placed in my arms. I blink away as many tears as I could hoping for my sight to come back to me. As I looked down at what was in my arms the tears flowed more freely than before. What have I done?
I ran home as fast as I could, running past the trees and following the pathway to leave Billy's bridge. I was covered in her blood but I never stopped to look back. I stood in front of my door and opened it walking into the house I once shared with my best friend. Charli walked out from her room and placed both her hands over her mouth before muttering "Isy.".
