I've always been scared of one thing. Growing up. The older you get, the more people in your life you lose. The good times just disappear. And I am terrified because I can't stop it, no matter how hard I try, no one can. I can't even picture myself as an adult. All these bad things that happen, will anything ever make up for them? Or is it just going to always be that way Am I just going to keep going down hill and do nothing with my life?
I don't know anymore
and it terrifies me. This life, this world, it literally terrifies me. I sit here, pushing people away. Hoping they will at least try to stay with me. But they don't. They leave, so I decided it was best this way. Just keep shoving them away so I don't have to deal with the fact later that the left me, because I know they would. Who wouldn't? I'm a stupid brat who doesn't deserve friends, or family on that matter.
My whole family either left or died. I have litteraly no one, i'm all alone. I didn't chose this life but it sure as hell chose me and lashed on. I sighed as I laid back on my bed, school started back tomorrow, and trust me I was not ready. Maybe I should be excited, even just a little every one else was, but everyone else actually have friends, I don't. My life sucks.
Enough with the self pitty, who care what I think? No one. So why should I care what I think, exactly I shouldn't. I looked out the window, it was pitch black outside, it must be later than I thought, I pulled my phone from my pocket, and looked at the time, 12:00. Great its midnight, so technically school started today.
I have to get some sleep, or sadly I wouldn't wake up in the morning, not that I wanted to. I closed my eyes and eventually sleep took over.
---------------------------------------------
I woke up to a ray of sunshine hitting my face. I yawned as I looked at the phone I was still holding from last night, 7:25. "Crap!" I gasped, I was going to be late on my first day back!! Not good. I jumped out of bed and through some clothes on, this will have to do. I brushed my teeth as fast as I could. I'd have to skip breakfast today. I quickly pulled a brush through my hair before grabbing my bag and running out the door. Good thing I lived close to the school or I would have been screwed, I eventually got to school and checked my phone, 7:35. Dammit!! I was only five minutes late but dang now everybody will look at me when I walk in. Great, just great. I made my way to my class and stood outside the door. I slowly turned the knob and walked in, I didn't know anyone. Not everyone turned to look at me, which I was thankful for, but the majority of the class did. "And you are? " the teachers voice pulled me from my thoughts, " Uh Katherine. Katherine Phillips." I stated, the teacher seem to study me for a second before showing me where my seat was. I had a sit all by myself, which I was happy about. Homeroom was over quick, for me at least because I got there late. When the bell rang I decided to linger for a second and slowly put my things away, I slowly packed my things one by one, when I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, really? How can it already be almost dead, I just charged it and haven't even used it, I pulled out my phone:
Unknown
Staying behind in cla...
Wait what? A text message? What the hell!! No one in this school knows my number!! I unlocked my phone and went to my messages.
Unknown
Staying behind in class won't help you sweet heart, you better hurry before the bell rings, or you'll be late. Again. Xoxo
-unknown
I just stared at my phone unable to move.
Wait how in the hell did this person get my number?!? Not okay. Ok before I freak out, it was probably just a one time thing. No need to worry. I stood up with all my things now fully packed and walked out the room to my first period, this was going to suck.
