Prologue

"Do you ever wish you could turn back time and make things different?" were the words that escaped my best friends mouth. "You ever think about how overwhelming life is because you want to protect so many people who are precious to you; overwhelming to the point where you wish you weren't you?" a pain filled her eyes.

"I want this all to end. I need this to end."

My heart crumbled. My mind was blank. She was always so happy; her smile radiated every room she entered and warmed my soul in ways no one else ever could. I didn't understand why she was talking like this. What was going on? She had an *exceptionally perfect* life. Her parents were happily married, and she had a younger brother who looked up to her. She was at the top of her class, and was drop dead gorgeous. So why? Did I miss something? Was it me?

I looked at her and a sudden feeling of dread washed over me. "Ra..what are you talking about? What's going on? What's with the sudden change of-"

Suddenly, I felt a needle pierce my neck.

"I'm sorry..I'm so sorry Gris. It was never my intention to hurt you. You just continue to get too close to learning the truth. This may be the last time you ever see me. If we ever see each other, stay away from me. I will kill you on the spot if you come close. This is the only way you'll be safe. I love you more than I love myself. Stay strong, Grisha."

February 20th, 2004 was the last time I saw Pandora Bonadio.

I had hella writers block. *whispers* It was really bad, fam. Plus I was busy with cheerleading and dealing with constant stress academically and personally 🙃. But maybe writing will help me get back into it; I dont know, Lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
