Present time
I am now 17 years old and am living at my auntie's house in Torrance, CA. She is the most supportive and nicest woman I know. She gladly took us in and we are living happily. Isabella and Rosalyn are doing fine. They are now 15 years old and we all get along great. We realized that we need to support each other and care for each other no matter what happens. We go to school at North high school. I am a senior and they are sophomores. I have friends at school, but they don't know about my parents. I never told them because I'm afraid that they will leave me. (Now done with this boring stuff and onto the story lol)

I wake up to my alarm clock which now plays "Roses" by the chainsmokers. I have the same routine everyday which is wake up, take a quick shower, brush my teeth and hair, choose my clothes, and go downstairs. I decide on wearing a red flannel with gray leggings with my black combat boots. I also pair my outfit with my clear Lokai bracelet. I grab my black leather backpack and check if everything is in there. I walk out of my room and go to the kitchen to make a piece of toast. I make my toast and I shout goodbye to my auntie and make my way to school. I walk to school because my auntie's house is about 2 blocks away. I arrive to school or this giant hell hole and wait for my friends or saviors to come get me.

My 7 best friends finally arrive. We have a pretty big group of friends and there are 4 boys and 4 girls. The boys names are Brylan (Bry), Nicholas (Nico), Joshua (Josh), and Jayson (Jay). The girls names are Kayley (Kay), Taylor (Tay), Shayla (Shay), and Vadison (V) or me. They all come and Jay comes with brand new white vans. When we all see him we say in unison, "DAMN JAY BACK AT IT AGAIN WITH THOSE WHITE VANS!" And we laugh really loud and we are getting weird looks, but we can care less. We walk in at school with 15 minutes to spare. We all separate and go to our lockers to get our books for first and second period. I open my locker and I see a post it note plastered on my door that says, "Tell my friends about my parents." I put that there on the first day of school this year, but I never got the courage to tell them. I told myself that I would do it at lunchtime. I have geometry and biology first. I find my friends but DAMN are these books so freaking heavy! My geometry and bio book is the heaviest of all the textbooks I have. We make small talk, but the bell rings scaring the absolute daylights out of me. I shout at the bell saying, "CAN YOU FREAKING SHUT UP! YOU SCARED THE DAYLIGHTS OUT OF ME! I HATE YOU BELL!" Then my friends were literally dying because they were laughing so hard. I said, "Screw you guys I was being serious you know!" Then I did a hair flip and left them behind so they can eat my dust.

I hurried into first period and struggled to pay attention. Math is probably the worst subject ever created. Like when will we use all of these god damned formulas? RIGHT NEVER! Math is also so boring too. But I'm being serious! The bell finally rang which felt like hours, and I went to biology. I don't really mind biology, because it is my second favorite subject. We learn ACTUAL INFORMATION in this class unlike *cough *cough math. We go through this lesson quickly and this class passes by quickly. The bell rings for break and then I hurry out of this class so I don't get trampled into a flat pancake (literally). I reach my locker and I switch my books out. I get my English textbook and my history textbook. This load is WAYY lighter and I reach my friends at our usual spot which is at the courtyard.

We talk about vines and look on Instagram. I love my friends because we are all the same, which is we are really loud, rowdy, the same caste (ugh), and we are really funny. We laugh at the stupidest things like videos that are so stupid. For example, Kay showed us a video of Elmo dancing to work, and we died watching it, and Nico showed us a video of a damn Daniel remix which was hilarious. The bell rang, but I didn't get scared this time. I walked with Jay, Tay, and Josh because we all have the same English class together. We get to class and read To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee. I'm like the only person awake, because when I look around people try to hide themselves, but it is so obvious that they are sleeping. English is my favorite subject because it I love to write essays and papers because I am creative. This class zooms by lightning speed and then I hurry across the campus to get to my history class. I have to hurry so I don't be late. I also struggle to pay attention in this class because it's so boring. I survive through this hour of hell and then the bell rings for lunch.

I realize that I have to tell my friends about the accident. I hurry to my locker and get my book for Spanish. I do softball as a sport, so I only need one book. I also get my lunch which is a turkey sandwich with lays chips and a fruit punch Gatorade. I find a piece of paper that fell out of my locker. It says "I know about your parents, and I will tell the whole school you fake pathetic liar." I panic, because I didn't tell anyone about this, but I think that this is a prank for a fake threat. I approach my table and I take a deep breath and compose myself. I clear my throat and my friends are quiet. Bry says hesitantly, "Do you need to tell us something?" I reply back and say, "Yes I do. It's about my parents." Then they all turn their art on me. I tell them the whole story from when I woke up to when I was hugging my sisters. I closed my eyes and said, "I understand if you guys don't want to be friends with a phony like me. I should've told you guys this from when I first met you guys. I was just too nervous to tell you guys because I thought that you guys would think I am a freak and a nobody and I would be alone for my whole life with no friends." After my heartbreaking confession, Tay, Kay, and Shay immediately hug me. They don't say a word and the boys rub my back in comfort. They all said with teary eyes, "I would never leave you. I understand why you didn't tell us. It's so hard to cope someone's death. We are still friends and I'm glad u told us and we found it out by someone else." My smile was wavering and I had teary eyes. I hugged everyone and said, "Thanks for being great friends. I knew I can trust you."

The bell rings, and I felt like a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. I walk with a little pep in my step and I pay extra attention in Spanish. When Spanish ends, I head to the girls locker room to change for softball practice. I get my gear and my clothes and I change. When I change, I go to the field and practice. When I play softball, I feel like that nobody can stop me and this is my stress reliever. I hit the ball extra hard and pitch harder than usual. When practice ends, I go home happy and confused about the note I saw in my locker. I still think about it when I'm laying in bed that night.
