My name is LeeAnn and I live in the suburbs in California. I used to have a friend named Darcy. We were the best of friends. Practically sisters! When we were younger, we would pull fun, deceptive tricks on people. But, they would always find out it was us. We never knew why either. Maybe it was because we always pulled tricks on people.
Then, one day she stopped hanging out with me. I never knew why either. We would always say hi to each other, but only of we saw each other places. I always wondered why, but every time I asked her, she'd say, "I can't tell you." I tried to get her to tell me, but she would always say the same thing to me over and over. that is until one day I finally gave up.
Eventually, we stopped hanging out and talking completely. The week after we stopped, people would stare at me as I walked into school. Which was strange because no one ever did that. Then, they would start whispering. And I assumed it was about me since it was right after they were staring. But, I just shook it off like it was nothing. When actually, it was something. It turned into a daily and weekly thing. Then, that is when all of the bullying started. And, ever since, I've had trouble finding a haven.
