The Letters: A Dance Moms Fanfiction

Kendall K Vertes: Schizophrenia, Letter 1

Narrator POV:

Johnson closed up Nia's final words to her mother and set it into the box, his heart heavy with sadness. He couldn't even believe what that young girl had to go through with her emotions all out of control like that. It blew his mind.

I'm almost done. I can do this. Just push through it, Johnson thought to himself as he reached his hand into the box to grab the next girl's story that was told through a set of letters. He turned the first one over and read the address:

Kendall K Vertes: Schizophrenia, Letter 1

Johnson's eyes widened at the mental disorder written on the envelope. The writing was messy, like the person who wrote it had shaky hands and couldn't seem to settle the nerves coursing through their body. Dried water stains dotted the paper, clearly showing that this young girl had cried while writing it.

It's sad. Hallucinations? In a 13 year old girl's mind? She's so young and innocent...

Johnson sighed and slipped his fingers into the envelope. He pulled out the folded up lined paper and dropped the now empty envelope on the table before beginning to read the first letter:

Dear Diary,

I'm seeing things again.

I see me, but it's not the girl that everyone is used to seeing. This girl is pale, her eyes are angry and malicious, her brown almost black hair greasy and matted down to her scalp. She doesn't smile nor does she ever move when I see her.

But this time, she did.

She smiled a smile that could haunt even an adult for years to come. Her eyes were like lasers, practically burning through my body from the way she was looking at me.

"Who are you?!" I would scream at her.

"I'm you." She would answer in a scratchy voice.

"No, you aren't me! You're anything but me!" I would cry.

Then, she said something that made my blood run cold and fear shoot through my body.

"I promise, I am you. Just...another part of you, I guess you could say. But, I'm that part of your mind that you keep locked away. You don't show me to anyone. But, I'm coming out, Kendall. And, by the time I'm done with you, you'll be broken more than you already are."

And that's when I hit my lowest of lows when came to my schizophrenia.

Ttyl,
Kendall K Vertes

So, I finally updated but I have a good reason as to why I'm late.

I COULDN'T THINK OF A DISORDER!!!!!!

I racked my brain and looked on the Internet and couldn't find one that would be good for this. I saw schizophrenia a couple of times, but I was really reluctant because it's very hard to write about. I think I did okay for the most part. But, it's gonna get harder.

And it was really creepy! I got chills writing this tbh.

Let me know how I did writing this. I'm a little nervous about writing this.

Love you guys so super much! 😘😘And remember....
