Picture of Jill------>

I woke up the next morning, realizing that my pillow was fully soaked in my tears. I quickly moved out of Danny’s arms, and without waking him up I changed the pillow cover.

It was only 4 in the morning, and we had slept only 2 hours ago, so I didn’t expect anyone to be awake.

I changed in to my black tracks and pink tank top, with a grey pullover on it and wore my sports shoes.

I tied my hair in a high pony tail and grabbed my headphones and I-pod.

I wanted to go for a jog, and just release all the energy I had… just get all the irritation out.

I took the house keys and went for a jog.

The weather was calm, the sun had barely risen and the streets were empty. The wind whistled triumphantly as trash cans clattered to the ground.

 I nearly ran 1.5 miles, and thought to take a break.

There was a park right in front of me.

It was beautiful, the land was grassy and it was green everywhere, no noise. Not even a single unwanted sound. Only the birds chirping and flying around the huge green trees whose leaves were falling one by one as I walked by the pathway…

I sat on the swing next to the bushes… swings were always my personal favorite in any park, it was really fun to sit on the swing especially when my dad was with me, he always use to push the swing from back as my legs never reached the ground. Oh god, those were some crazy times MY DAD AND ME were like the best father-daughter couple ever.

 At times I think it’s good that Jill is dead.

 But she was the only thing my father had left behind for me the only thing I had to take care of, and be my dad’s responsible girl! What will he think of me now? I just disgraced him with one stupid choice.

I stood up and covered my eyes, as the sun started rising right in front of me… it was getting hotter and more people were coming to the park now.  

I walked back to the house; it was 7:00 am now.

When I entered the house they were all on the table having break-fast!

And they were all NORMAL I mean just casual as if nothing ever happened.

“Hey rach, come join us!” Danny exclaimed in a joyous tone

 “Err… sure?” I replied confusingly grabbing a plate from the kitchen

Everyone were talking casually, how can they be casual when Jill is dead? I was totally frowned in confusion

“Hey, are you ok?” Danny said in my ears

I turned to him and nodded saying a no

He didn’t ask why, which was weird again. 

I was boiling with anger they can’t smile or laugh

I mean not that I don’t want them to, but aren’t they sad for the loss of Jill?

I just couldn’t resist it anymore and I blurred it out

“What’s wrong with you guys? Don’t you care, I mean JILL is DEAD? You know that, don’t cha? I shouted, standing from the chair

“Rachel, sit down.” Danny said pulling my arm

I removed my arm from his grip and continued to glare at others, hoping for a sensible reply

“We just wanted to make your mood lighter” Stella replied avoiding eye contact

“Lighter? Yeah right” I replied turning around and moving towards my room
