dear diary

this is my forty-third week in high school and all i'm doing is slowly dying. 

i haven't talked to scott since last week.

and i don't want to, being honest. 

because he acted foolishly.

he knows that we can't get married.

it is illegal for us.

becky: are you serious with this? 

me: yes and it is complete nonsense and illegal

becky: you know that you can get engaged until you are 18 right?

me: god becky, you still don't understand what the point is, do you?

becky: what is it?

me: i'm going to die and he wants to get married because i'm almost gone

becky: and what's wrong with that?

me: i don't live any longer than a week or two and i can't be with him forever

becky: sometimes forever means only one second, mary

me: that one second i can just kiss him

becky: and this feeling is eternal, isn't it?

me: i guess you're right
