You may have wondered why all of a sudden i was depressed. well, after i tripped on that rock, i realized how helpless i really was. Also, what that girl said had opened up my mind to what the world really thought of me. i kept going though, because all bad things end... right? i kept texting Katelyn after my phone turned back on (the screen was still shattered though) for reassurance, but all i got was lonely. Ever since that day when she broke down, I hadnt heard anything from her, which was really starting to worry me... what if something bad had happened??? I felt as though it was all my fault, which it was! I was the one who was deaf. She's only stayed this long because I need her. i quickly pushed that thought to the back of my head, still feeling like Katelyns absence was her fault.
why not just go see katelyn? A sudden thought popped into my head, she only lives two blocks away. I knew what I was going to do. I put on my tennis shoes and a light jacket, and started out into the evening light.
mom, i went to Katelyns house. brb, dont worry about me i will be fine. ~Elena
