Bri P.O.V.
When we were in the car, leaving Tami's house I couldn't help but think about everything that just went down. Tami really had us believing she was getting better when in reality she was just getting worst. It hurt my heart to see those things written in her diary. I couldn't keep this information to myself. Keeping this information to myself was only going to make matters worst. Everyone needs to know what's going on with Tami so we can help her.
"Hey guys." I said.
"Yeah." Terry and Kya both said.
"Tami is not getting better."
Kya looked at me puzzled. "Yes she is Bri. Don't you see how happy she is living with Lena? She's getting better."
Tami is such a good actor that Kya couldn't even believe what I was saying. She still believed that Tami was getting better.
I shook my head. "That's what she wants us to believe so we won't try to help her. She's getting worst."
"Are you sure?" Terry asked. "She doesn't seem depressed or sad or anything. She told me that Lena treats her right and she loves living with her so why would she be getting worst?"
I sighed. "I read her diary when she went to the bathroom."
Kya gasped. "Bri, you can't be snooping through people's stuff like that."
"I know, I know. But something was telling me to and I'm glad I did. She said in her diary that she had everyone believing she was ok when she really wasn't."
"Are you serious?" Kya exclaimed.
"Yes. And she said she didn't see her purpose and that she wanted to.."
"Wanted to what?" Terry asked.
"Die."
Terry P.O.V.
I felt my heart sink beneath my feet as I heard Bri say the word die. I felt so naive and stupid. How could I not know that Tami was feeling this way? I should have been able to see through her fake smiles. I guess I was just so stuck on the idea that she was getting better that I didn't take my time to actually look at Tami, I mean really look at her. Look deep within her soul. If I did that, I probably would have already knew she was just pretending to be happy.
I parked my car on the side of the road. I looked at Kya and Bri. Kya asked me why I stopped driving.
"We need a plan. A plan on how were going to get Tami to open to us without actually telling on Bri."
"Yeah." Bri agreed. "If she found out I told you all that, she's going to shut us down and distance herself from us like last time."
A huge smile spread across Kya's face. I knew what that smile meant. It meant she had a good idea.
"I know what we should do." Kya exclaimed.
"What?"
"Were going to need you to put your best acting skills on Terry. Tomorrow you'll go to Tami's house, unannounced again around two because Lena won't be home. I don't want Tami knowing your coming because she'll probably try extra hard to be look happy but since she doesn't know you're coming, it'll come to her as a surprise. I want you to talk to her, make her feel nice, then when she gets real comfortable, hit her with the questions. Just ask her deep questions. If she starts to get defensive, sweet talk her and calm her down. Let her know you're there for her so she'll be willing to open up. When she opens up to you, you'll come back and tell us everything so we can find a way to help her. AND DON'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT BRI! If you do our whole plan is ruined."
