The Silver Heart Pendant

Chapter 1

So, my day was going on as normal, I was walking through the halls of North-Lake Public school. I hate this place, I thought to myself. At least it was my last year in this shitty school.
Let's hope grade 8 was going to be my year, it was the third day of school and I already hated everyone here- not including my best friend, Melissa.

Anyway, back to my normal day, as I said, I was walking through the hallway. Where I was going, I had no clue, I just had to get out of that stupid classroom. I'll go to the washroom, I thought, and walked towards our shitty, unsanitized female washroom. I passed Mr. Blaine's classroom, and I remembered how happy I was in that class. I miss being in Mr. Blaine's class. I kept walking, trying to hold back tears, and wiping my cheeks that were already coated in the salty water that poured out of my eyes almost every day. I hate my life. I walked faster hoping to get to the washroom before I screamed. I looked around seeing if anyone was near me. I didn't see anyone, but you can never be sure. I started to do a light jog, I could see the washroom from here. I wiped my face again and sniffled, then looked up again. I was only a couple meters from the washroom, I started to run and let out a happy sigh when I walked through the doorframe.

First, I went to the mirror, I looked at the mascara running down my face, this is fixable, I thought. My eyeshadow and eyeliner was fine, all I had to do was wipe the mascara off my cheeks. I got some paper towel and wet the rough paper under the faucet. I walked back over to the mirror and started wiping off my face. This is going to be easy, I thought. I wiped off the makeup that had ran down my face and fixed my long blonde ponytail. I winked at myself in the mirror and said "You can get through this, Sara. You've been through worse. And damn, you look good today." After my couple words of encouragement to myself I was ready to walk back outside my little hide out.

I walked to the door slowly and calmly, I took a deep breath and stepped back into the hallway when someone grabbed my arm.
