"Morning Sweetie," my mum says to me as I make my way down stairs and into the kitchen, where she is making breakfast.

I smile at her and take a seat at the breakfast bar. She hands me a plate full of pancakes and berries. I nod my head to her as a silent thank you.

"I've been thinking," I look up to my mum talking to me with a mouthful of pancakes. "Have you made any new friends after... the incident?" I frown at where this is going, then I shake my head in shame.

She sighs then comes and sits next to me. "Sweetie I think I should move you to a different school or maybe a new state."

I look at her confused then remember about my whiteboard. So I get up and run to my room grabbing it and a purple marker. I walk down the stairs while writing. Why do you want me to move?

I turn the board around and show her what I wrote once I finally sit back down. "Because you don't have any friends and your not socializing!" She answers.

I rub out the writing and put a new question on the board in it's place. Don't we have to wait for the end of the semester?  I show her and she shakes her head as an answer.

I put the board and pen down with a smile on my face, I can finally leave the hell hole of a place that I'm in at the moment.

I hug my mum tightly and smile so hard my cheeks hurt. I've been bullied so much after the incident and no one had my back, but hopefully when we move at least someone will understand me.

I walk up to Turner High with a smile on my face knowing what it has in store for me, today is my last day of school in San Francisco.

I smile at my fellow students as I walk to my locker. I open my locker and see a piece of paper fall to the cold ground. My smile immediately turns into a frown as I crouch to pick up the small paper.

Don't worry Mute, you won't be unnoticed soon... Your fellow students will know who you are and what you are soon. Just wait and see    -Lily

My hands turn into fists as I look around for the little runt. I spot her in the corner laughing her ass off with her fellow Barbies. I rip up the paper and put it in a nearby bin.

I walk over to her with anger seeping through my bones. She stops laughing when she sees me coming for her.

I stop right in front of her, I look her in the eye and slap her right across the face. She is taken back but regains stability quickly.

"Is that all you going to do Katerina?" She asks me with a smirk plastered on her plastic face, I ignore what she just said and just stare at her, aware of the crowd starting to form around us.

"Oh that's right, you can't say anything to defend yourself," don't you dare say it, I continue to stare at her. I wish looks could kill, then she would be out of my life by now.

"Because you," beware girl, if you say one more word "are," don't say it Lily you might end up in hospital "mute." That's it hold me down.

I throw myself at her and she falls to the ground with me on top. I throw punch after punch onto her fake Barbie face. Her 'friends' just stand and watch in horror.

Some guys that must like Lily try to pull me off her but I don't budge.

After all these years, of holding this anger towards Lily in, I can finally let it all out. On her face.

She doesn't even try to get any hits on me because she knows she won't get a chance, she will just become more vulnerable.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, what is going on here." I instantly stop what I'm doing at the voice of Mrs Clark, the deputy principal.
