Abi pulled up into the parking lot for moms New York apartment. Or should I say penthouse. We walked to the door and I went in.

"Surprise!" Lots of people shouted.

"What the heck is this for?" I asked.
Lots of celebrity's are here! There's mom, Selena, Taylor lautner, karlie, cars, fifth harmony, band perry, Jason, and lots of others!
Mom ran over to me and handed me an envelope. I opened it.

"Really?!" I said.
Mom nodded her head yes.

"Thank you so much!"
I'm going to go visit Indiana next week! This is so awesome! I cannot believe it! I'm leaving in 3 days. So on Sunday night. I have to tell my friends the news! Yay!!
I hugged mom.
"But why are all these people here?" I asked.

"Because you have another surprise and they wanted to see your reaction. "

"What is it?"
Mom handed me another envelope. I opened it. It's a paper from a screenshot of text messages... With Ellen! I read them.

"I'm going to be on Ellen tomorrow!!" I shouted excitedly.
Yay! I can't believe this! This day could not get any better!

"This day could not get any better!" I shouted.

"Oh yes it can!"

"How?"
I got another envelope. I read it.

"I get a record deal??!!!" I said excitedly.

"Yup!" Mom replied.
I started shaking. Why am I shaking? What the heck is going on? I'm so confused! My legs collapsed and now I'm lying on the cold hard ground! What is happening? Mom ran over to me.
"It's ok, just breathe. Take deep breathes. " mom told me.

"What's happening?" I asked between shakes.

"I think your having a anxiety attack. " mom said.
A anxiety attack! I've never had one before.
"Karlie! Get my anti anxiety medicine from the top left cabinet in my bathroom."
Karlie ran to moms bathroom and came down with a pill bottle.

"I know your not supposed to take other people's medicines, but we have no choice. " mom said.
She got me a bottle of water and handed me a pill from the bottle. I put the pill in my moth and took a drink if the bottled water. After a few minutes I started shaking.

Mom whispered to me. "Do you want them to leave and meet them later so you can rest?"
I nodded my head yes.
"But Adam, Selena, and karlie and Abi can stay. " I whispered back.
Mom made everybody else leave and helped me up to my room.

"You need to rest a little bit. I'm sorry about that. I didn't know this would happen. " mom said.
She walked out of my room.
I don't want to rest! I'm fine. I walked to my bathroom and opened a drawer. I found my old blade. And by old, I mean I haven't used it since my family died. So it's been 3 weeks. Almost all the evidence from cutting in the past is gone. Should I do it? I can't. Mom will hate me. I would ruin everything if I started cutting again. I put my blade back into the drawer. Not today satin! I thought.

Mom came into my bathroom. "I heard a drawer slam. Are you ok?"

"Yes, but I have to show you something" I said.
I need to show mom my wrists. She needs to know. I need to get help. Maybe I could even get my scars removed!
I held out both of my arms with the bottoms up so she can see my old cuts.

"Britt. Are the cuts recent?" Mom asked.
I can tell she's very concerned. Why wouldn't she be?

"No. I've stopped since I've moved in with you but I just thought I'd show you and tell you so if you see them later than you wouldn't think I just did them"
Mom nodded.

"Do you want to get the scars removed?"
I shook my head yes. I don't want to live in my past anymore.

"Ok. I'll schedule you an appointment."
Mom said.

I walked out of my bathroom and mom followed.
Good. I'm going to get my scars removed! I'm so happy. Mom walked out of my room and I sat on my bed and pulled up YouTube. I clicked on the search bar and typed "getting scars removed" and hit search. A bunch of videos came up. I clicked on the first one. I watched the whole video. It doesn't look like it hurts too bad. I think I'll survive. I hope I do.
