I'm Jane Young. I'm a typical 16 year old teenage girl. My friends say i have a bubbly personality, that im always smiling & full of energeticness. I was always known as the nice innocent girl. Most people think i have a great life just because I have a good education, get good grades, has a roof over my head and has a family. I seem like I have a perfect life, right? Well you're wrong.
One morning I was walking to school. My parent's were having an argument and I just wanted to get away from it all, so I walked to school to get my mind off of things. I exhaled as I reached the stop light, clicking the button several times waiting for the cross walk to change. I check my phone; no new messages or any calls.
"Guess they didn't even realized i left." I muttered under my breath.
I check the time again. It was only 7:30AM. I sighed.
"School starts at 8. Guess i'll just take a quick walk through the park." I told myself.
I walk to the park. It's pretty hot today." I then decide to sit on the grass. I grab flowers and pick at the petals. "He loves me, he loves me not...haha this is stupid." I put the petals down and just lay and look at the sky. It's such a beautiful sight.
"Fuck, what happened" I say as i rub my eyes and shield them from the shining sun.
"8:20 ALREADY? SHIT." I sprint to school.
I finally reach the front of the school. I tiptoe quietly to the office and ask for a late pass. The office lady eyesd me suspiciously.
"She's usually early.." The attendance mouths to the front desk.
I rolls my eyes and exit the office. I stop by the restroom to freshen up. "Oh great, there's grass in my hair and my hands smell like dirt and flower petals" I sigh and wash my hands. At the corner of my eye, someone walks in.
The girl that walks in is Amy Hernandez. She's those popular girls. Amy hate's me with a passion. Over Summer in 2012 during our freshman year, I was at the same pool party as her. Amy's boyfriend, Matt, was drunk and started to makeout with me! Can you believe that? Amy's football player star boyfriend kissed ME. The thing is, i told Matt to leave me alone. But Matt wouldn't stop putting his hands all over me. Amy saw and was furious. Her eyes filled with anger and tears. She closed her fists and stormed right towards me. I remember feeling her knuckles hit the side of my face, it felt numb and after that, I was so lost. Everyone saw and it got quiet. I looked up and Amy is about to throw another punch. My bestfriend Christine pushes Amy away and picks me up. She walks me to her car. After that, i've avoided Amy at all costs.
I mind my business and continue washing my hands. I felt the tension rise up when Amy walked in. Amy goes to the sink next to mine and i don't make any eye contact. I look up in the mirror. On the corner of my eye I see Amy's tears fall. My eyes slowly widen.
"A-a-are you okay.." I say and i slowly turn towards her.
Amy doesn't move a muscle. She's still. More tears fall on her face. Amy's eye's turn full of anger.
"You. You're the reason Matt and I broke up. You're a fucking slut. You took him from me. I saw you and him making out and touching eachother at Eva's Pool Party. I never fucking liked you from the start. I hate you with a strong passion and always will. I'm never going to forgive you for what you did!"
I stood there, surprised. It hurt for some reason. Every word that came out of her mouth was like a bullet to my chest.
"You think everyone likes you just because you're such a perfect little innocent girl. You think just cos you're innocent you get everything you want. Well not any fucking more. Watch, everyone will know how much of a whore you are." Amy's voice escalates.
"I didn't even do shit to you. I tried to get Matt off of me. Your boyfriend was drunk for crying out loud! You should've controlled him. He was all over me! I don't even want your stupid boyfriend!" I explode at her.
Amy looks at me in horror and then backhands me. I step back, and hesistate to punch her. I try to and I miss. Amy pushes me into the mirror and threatens me.
"Next time you go near me or my boyfriend i'm going to sock you in the face so damn hard. You better watch yourself." She then stormed out of the restroom.
I go to a stall and sit. My face is numb and I'm out of it. Tears rush down my face and i start bawling my eyes out. I'm scared for some reason. I stay in the stall until first period is over. I clean up and act like im okay. I ask to go home early. My mom picks me up.
30 minutes later my mom is here. I get into the car. No hi, no contact whatsoever.
"Honey, are you ok?" She asks.
"...i'm fine." I mumbles.
"You don't seem okay... Was it a boy problem, dear? Don't be afraid to open up."
I just look at my phone the whole car ride ignoring her. My mom goes up the drive way. I get out of the car as fast as i can.
I feel tension and sadness rising in me. I turn and yell, "It's not a boy problem, Mom! You won't understand!"
I run upstairs to my bedroom, I lock the door and run to my bed and cry. I ended up crying myself to sleep. I wake up, it's 5:30PM. I get up and go grab my diary. My diary is my most prized possesions. It has my rants, vents, personal thoughts, secrets. I keep it locked in a painted box I made in Art class. I finish writing and it's 6:40PM. I go downstairs and grab a snack. No ones home. Mom must've picked up Adrian from Soccer practice.
I go back upstairs and check my phone. 6 new text messages. 8 missed calls from Christine. I sigh and open the texts.
New text from: 408-***-****
"Show your face at school tomorrow and you'll be finished, bitch."
I scoffs, ha a stupid threatning text. It's not my fault her boyfriend made out with me. He was a great kisser though. I throw my phone on my bed, and reads Christine's texts.
Text from: Christine ♥
"Why are you dodging my calls you little shit"
Thats what i love about our friendship. We call eachother names and dont even care hahah.
I don't reply, i'll explain everything tomorrow. I get into bed and go to sleep.
*BEEP, BEEP, BEEP.* 6:30AM
Today's a big day, wow gonna get my ass beat. woo hoo. I get ready and go downstairs for cereal. I still have extra time so i'll just watch some tv for a bit. Christine's Mom is outside to pick me up. I say my good bye's to my parents and go out the door. I open the car door and get in.
I say good morning to Christine's mom and buckle my seat belt in.
"Christine, i have soooo much to tell you." I exclaim in my seat.
"About what? Thanks for ignoring me last night." she says coldly.
"Dude, thats what im about to tell you!"
"Well hurry up and tell me!" She says. I eye her mom and say "I'll tell you in first period."
We get outside of the car and thank her Mom. We walk to our lockers and Christine grabs my arm.
"Okay? Soo.... tell me!"
"Well, yesterday I ran into Amy and then -"
"The slut bag who punched you for making out with her boyfriend?"
"I didn't make out with her boyfriend, you know that!"
"That's not what it looked lik-"
"Okay shut up here's what happened. I ran into her in the bathroom and she slapped me. She still has that grudge against me for what happened a YEAR ago. Like seriously? When is she gonna let it go?! Oh yeah. I also got this threatening text that if i show up to school im gonna get my ass beat, hahaha."
"I don't think you will, that's pathetic. She can't do anything to hurt you. She should get over herself.
