Chapter Two Bad Day

 I hate having bad days. They just kind of makes everyone feel depressed. Allie always says that everyone has them, but I always seem to have the worst ones than others. I guess I could say that whenever I have bad days, just seems that when I have the bad day everyone takes that as the time to go around and say things to me that can and will bring me to hurting them. I guess that what happened to Jenna was some else's bad day, or she didn't do as the person asked of her. But whatever the reason she is dead and there is nothing that we can do about that now. When I first heard about her death I wasn't that surprised. I guess everyone can say that I never really had a good past with her. I was at one point her best friend. Then we hit high school and she just started to hate me for whatever the reason. My friends and everyone else around me thought that I had something to do with it, but the thing is if I did do this why would I leave the murder weapon not even three inches away from the body.

At the moment I am waiting outside for my friends so we can walk home like we do everyday after school. I saw them, but then I saw the guy that I would never think of talking to after what happened in middle school. I know what people say to me we live to learn and to forget. But whenever I see that face I just kinda stare. I thought about just leaving them to walk with him but they saw me before I could do anything.

"Hey Kassie! Is it ok if Jack walks home with us?"

Jack stared at me and I stared back. I get it we look kind of alike but we act nothing alike. We are twins and they know I don't like him and they still think that we should try and get along. We haven't seen eachother since the day our parents got separated.

"I guess."

As we were walking a just kinda zoned out. I was brought back to reality by someone saying my name.

"Hi Kassie. I haven't seen or heard from you in like a year. How have you been?"

"I've been fine. What about you?"

"Same. Umm, I have been talking to dad and me and him have talked about you and me talking and hang-out again like we used to before the separation. Dad called mom and said that it was all up to you. So what do you say, can we be best friends again?"

I thought about it for a while. I thought about what it used to be like. Just Jack and me hanging out in the park, walking home together, always being there for one another. I looked up at him and nodded my head. He looked relieved. When we got to Max's house we said our good-byes and continued to walk.

"Jack are you staying with Kassie and your Mom?"

"I don't know all my dad said was to walk home with Kassie and talk to her about something. I believe that I am staying with them, but i'm not one hundred percent sure."
"Just stay and tell dad. You can meet your step brother, Matt."

He looked confused at first then it hit him. Mom had gotten remarried. I guess that today wasn't as bad of a day as I thought it was.
