"Okay so it started when my parents got divorced and my father gave me a pocket knife before he left to protect myself. Things haven't been going that great since then because I'm always thinking that it's my fault even when my mom said it wasn't.So I started cutting myself because I felt like I was letting my mom down and I was letting myself down,and getting bullied by Diane doesn't make things any better she just makes me life miserable just because I'm different." After my explanation Amber was in tears and when I saw that I started to cry she told me to stand  up and we both did and she gave me a big hug and then I flinch and say "ow" and she lets go and says "what's wrong?" I lift up my shirt to show her the scars on my stomach and she says "okay show me where you cut."  I showed her my arms and stomach and then I to off my jeans exposingmy shorts and then I showed her my legs.She sighed and kisses all of my scars and I blushed and then she asked "is this why you didn't want to go in the water?" And I just nod "oh honey" she said quietly and then she said come on let's swim.

We got in the water and we began swimming and then we stop and then Amber said race you to the boardwalk and we raced and of course Ambwe won but that's because I'm not a very fast swimmer.We get back to the boardwalk and we've been there for a while and then Amber's mom says "come on girls time to go home"and we say "coming" and then I get up and then I stop "you okay?" Amber  said and I said "I don't want your mom to see my scars" and Amber looked sympathetic and said "she won't mind" but I just shook my head I didn't want her to know yet.Amber leaves but comes back a minute later with a towel and I say "thank you" and then we walk to the car and go home.
