"Is that the girl from the video?"
"I can't believe she just showed up like that"
"She had guts"
The day I pondered on my regrets and wished I hadn't met him, I knew exactly how I felt. Marco has been my boyfriend for a year, and I was sure he was the one. Perhaps I just wanted to believe in the fairy tale version of our relationship, in which we stay together forever.
Something about the story's treachery stuck with me.
The things he did affect me even more, he showed me that the relationship I desired could never end happily.
June 2015
On the first day of school, I overheard whispers about a video clip that had gone viral the year before. If that video hadn't gone public, I would still be alive and my body would still be robust. But for me, I didn't feel that anything existed, and that video was the death of my own belief.
No one wanted to sit next to me on the first day, and I had to be pushed into my assigned seat by the teacher. I'm not contagious, of course, but some people have the impression that they might catch whatever humiliation I'm carrying if they even come close to me.
My parents can't know about what occurred on my first day, my dad works in politics and my mom was a lawyer, they are very strict when it comes to me because I'm their only child, so I either put my head down out of humiliation or walk away from everyone. I always wear my headphones, and I'm grateful I have long straight hair to conceal my face.
My parents, once learning of the video, as they keeping me locked in my room until the matter was resolved, they also have the means to erase or remove the video from circulation, but those who have already seen it and saved it for their use might find that the footage continues to remember it.
Since I am by myself and unable to concentrate on my studies with being interrupted by my annoying classmates, I haven't been able to concentrate for a very long time. I've had a hard time calming down and staying composed, and it's only gotten worse over the course of the past few days.
I feel shame on a daily basis since some people still remember my issue and are unlikely to forget it, even if I never say that term again. As long as they keep looking at me, they will be reminded of my issue, which will make me feel bad.
I didn't enjoy my lunch, but what really put a damper on things was when these two boys came up to me out of the blue. I didn't recognize one of them, so it was a bit awkward as they both figured out who would be the first to introduce themselves.
I don't know if these two boys are related or not, but one of them insisted on shaking my hand and introducing himself, saying, "h-hello, I'm Aiden," with a stuttering voice that made me think he was nervous. The other boy then introduced himself to me, saying, "hi, I'm Zane."
"Hi? I-im g-Gracie?" as I wanted them to sense, what these two Intentions
"Sorry, this is my friend," Zane suddenly said
"Y-yeah" they look at each other with a curious face they having
"I wanted to be friends with you... too" Aiden quickly said
