All the running was too late, the book was opened for the world to see, and everyone turned their head to the drama. Her dad's eyes glazed over the diaries pages and then the area was silent. His eyes started to water,
"Dear diary," He starts
He then quiets down
"I'm bisexual," he whispers to himself heart sunken
Ariel is helpless, and about to break down, her eyes are swelling with tears that haven't left their sockets, and her eyes squinting from the salty pain. Some drops escape every time or so making a small path on her face for more to follow. Her dad keeps on reading to himself and then it hits him he reads it.
"I shouldn't tell Dad; he'll yell at me." He repeats from the dairy
sniff Sniff SNIFF! CRASH!
Ariel collapses on the grass head tilted to the ground, she is on her hands and knees crying, sobbing a whole wave of sadness washing over her. Even more than before, even more than when her brother left her, but it wasn't just guilt it was also embarrassment and jealousy of others.
Why does this happen to me and NO ONE ELSE? I SWEAR, I'm just the target for the world to bully on, the one person they can get a reaction out of! Ugh! I'm so useless! And now EVERYONE is looking at me staring, watching, listening! GOD this is going all over Snapchat and Facebook I can FEEL it!
She tilts her head up straight to her dad; he's walking closer and closer.
I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF DAD! I just wanna go back to Peter, mum, dad and I. With NO complications! I'm just like another character who gets helplessly put in a book just to get people's attention.
He is getting closer about to kneel down to Ariel,
"Ariel list╪╒▄↓ˉ"

Flash backs of her childhood come and go, but with one theme
"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓
"Dad! DAD! DAD!"
"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓
"This is what happens when I open my STUPID MOUTH!! My only son gets taken away from me!"

She was little again, the fumes choking, the red light, the punch, the cruelness of her small but slightly happy childhood. The place morphed into her nightmares; she was surrounded.
"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუOH ARIEL!"
She needed help from someone, was that her brother? She couldn't see, she couldn't tell, there was no one except the voice. She had to trust it was Peter.
Brother? PETER!
"Oh no sweet little Ariel, I'm far from him."
He had a sharper tone to his voice, and it was snappier and deeper than Peter but also now there was a person coming into view, they were tall, they were unknown, and they were anonymous.
WHO ARE YOU!? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!?
Ariel was scared, shocked of course but scared, a shiver travelled all the way up and down her body, like lightning.
"Isn't this the place for all your nightmares?"
Still unsure, she nodded.
"Well welcome back your old 'friend',"
Who ARE you? She trembles.
Will!
"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ"▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ▄↓˧∞˟˛ꬳუ
Ariel comes back to the 'real' world, her eyes spiralling and shifting gear.
"And you see wh-" Her dad recalls something she can't remember
"WILL IS HERE!" She screams she bolts up from her position, towards her house
Everyone looks away and continues life but not her family and close friends (as well as the nosey neighbours... what you gotta have some of them in there!), Joanne is covering her face with her hand and into Brendan, sobbing. Her mum is covering her face in shock and one tear folds down her face, then another, another, another soon a WATERFALL floods her face, and she runs after Ariel, she stops and turns towards ariels dad,
"She heard the fight. Didn't she, Rafael?"
Mum leaves and her dad is broken "My son now my daughter!" he says torn and teary.
Brendan and Joanne follow closely behind Ariel's mum.
Now everything is torn to shreds... Or is it?
