Note to Derek, from Keri, /04/29/2008.

Hi Derek.. Why are you mad at me? Did I do something bad?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried going to sleep that night, but my thoughts kept me up..

What do I do? Do I tell his mom? Our friends? Should I keep my mouth shut, like he asked? Is he even really gonna try to stop? Is he an addict?

No! Stop it Keri! This is bad to even think! You don't know what's wrong with him!

Then, I heard a new voice.

"Hello.."

"What? Who's there?!"

"Me.."

"Me? Who's me?"

"Me.. As in I'm you, Keri.."

"Not possible.. Leave!"

"He's suicidal.."

He?! Who's he?!"

"He's leaving us.."

"What? Who's he?!"

"Hurry up.. His life is in your hands.. Go!"

"What?! Oh my God! Derek..?!"

"..Bye Keri.."

"W-what's wrong with me?!"

Just then, I got a text from Derek..
