She was nearly 11 by this point.
Choosing her secondary school like any other kid.
Depressed.
Suicidal.
Self-harming regularly.
She never showed her arms.
Or her wrists.
Or her sides.
Or her hips.
Or her legs.
And when she tried to slit her throat she didn't show her neck either.
Because the thin red lines across it might have given her away.
