When I get to my locker, there's another note...

"I saw you with Nash, he will never like you"

Why? Is it because I'm black? Or what?

I crumple the note and throw it in the garbage this time.

My phone vibrates in my pocket, "someone sent me a note saying "Hailey doesn't deserve you""

I shrug and enter 5th period.

I was too busy day dreaming about Nash. Why am I even thinking about him, I don't like him.

I don't.

"Hailey, what's the answer for question 5?"

How am I supposed to know.

"Uh... -13" I say trying to save myself.

"Good"

I smile out of relief.

The bell rings and I scurry out of class.

Finally, it's over.

I rush to my locker, praying there isn't another note. Good there wasn't one this time. I put everything into my bag and walk home.
