Alex's POV:
I sink down to my floor. Speechless.
Cassette Tape 1:
*Well hello everyone. It's me, the one & only, Harry Styles. Yes I am the one who killed himself approximately 5 months ago today. How exactly am I talking to you right now? Well I made these tapes a few days before it happened. Many of you are wondering, why would he kill himself? He was popular, had all the friends, had the perfect girl friend, had rich parents & was the captain of the football team. He had it all. I had it all.. At least everyone thought so. I left a note for my parents before it happened, explaining how much I love them & how I don't mean to hurt them.* I am unable to control the tears. It's Harry on these tapes.. But why? ** I hope they are doing alright. But anyways back to the point, in these 13 tapes I plan on explaining to all of you, why I did this. Why I killed myself. Each tape is numbered, listen to them in order. Each one is about someone. Each tape explains one of the reasons why I did this & how it involves them.* my heart sinks.. So does this mean that I am on one of these tapes?? That I am one of the reasons he killed himself.. ** to the people who are listening, please listen to all of the tapes. Even when you reach the one that's about you, please continue to listen to the rest. After listening to all the tapes please mail these to the next person in line, you will later know who's next. After this play tape 1. That's when the story begins.. Here are the 13 reasons why** the tape shuts off. I sit there letting it all sink in. I bawl & bawl until there are no more tears. I finally build the courage to pick myself up. I gather the tapes & shove them back into the box. I hide the box under my bed, not wanting my parents or sister to discover them. I climb in bed & finally drift off too sleep. I wake up to my mom by my side, "sweetie you feel warm, you ought to stay home. Your eyes are also very puffy" knowing I didn't have the strength to go to school today I stay home. After my parents leave for work I crawl out of bed & pull out the box. I pick up tape 1 & place it inside the cassette player. I walk over to my closet & slip on my fuzzy robe & slippers. I make my way on to my balcony & sit down in a chair. After I get comfy I put the headphones on & hit play. I lean back & close my eyes as the familiar voice fills my ears.
