That morning I decided to take a bit of an adventure and escape all my thoughts. The best way for me to do this is by riding my penny board down to my hidden spot. I ran downstairs and told my parents that I was meeting with Stacey at the mall. I know I should have just said I was going for a walk, but my parents are starting to get really suspicious about what I've been up to because I'm not eating that much anymore plus I'm always in my bedroom. I need to start getting over Grayson and all these emotions he's made me feel.
Once I see the view, I take a deep breath and relax. I sit on my rock that faces the view of a beautiful city and watch as the sun slightly goes down. I find myself being taken away with all the surroundings. Next to me there is a bunch of trees and to my other side there is a giant tree which I always climb just when I'm about to leave.
I realise that it's getting late and I should head home before my parents get scared.
Before I do, I climb the tree and find my tin box. In this box, I put a note which has a drawing, word or sentence about what has been happening recently and why I came. Today I drew a heart trying to pick a path to go through. I felt like this described all that's happened through this week, and I just want it all to be over.
As I climb back down the tree I slip on my shoe lace and end up getting cuts all up my leg and arm. Great that's all I need.When I get home, I see my parents looking tired and worried. 'Hey mum, dad, what's wrong?' I seemed to have given them a scare because they jumped a bit, but once they realised it was me, they started to get annoyed and frustrated.
'Where were you missy?'
'I was with Stacey, I told you.'
'Really, then why did Stacey call me about 10 minutes after you left asking where you were and if you wanted to come over?'
'Ok, I'm sorry. I lied. I was at the ol....' Before I could finish my mum cut me off with a gasp, her face went from frustrated to shocked.
'What happened to you?!' She asked
'I was about to tell you unti..' She cut me off again.
'Don't tell me you were trying to kill yourself!'
'Mum why would you think that I wou...' Before i finished I then thought about it, I haven't been eating, nor sleeping, I haven't left my bedroom and I'm never happy around anyone anymore.'What do I do now?' I thought
