Hello. I am Maya Hart and I hate my life. Many people say "life sucks." Or "I hate my life." And they don't mean it, or they mean it as a joke. But this is no joke, I truly hate life.

Maya: BEEP BEEEP BEEEEEEEEEPPP I groaned as I slammed my clock down. I was about to go back to bed when I remembered, it was dad's turn with me today. Then I shot out of bed and got ready hoping I would leave before he gets up and beats me. I picked out my clothes, a yellow long sleeve flowy shirt with boot it jeans. (Hides the scars)

I just put on quick makeup and brushed my hair, then I ran out the door

I just put on quick makeup and brushed my hair, then I ran out the door. I ran into the kitchen and opened the fridge, nothing. I guess I'll just go without breakfast today. I heard a squeaking from the mattress, so I just wrote a quick note. I grabbed my phone and ran out the door.

As I walked into class and only saw Riley and Lucas there, the only people who arrive early. They were talking about something and Riley was twirling her hair, flirting. Lucas spotted me.
"Well hello there, short stack." He said.
"Howdy, Ranger Rick." I countered
"You're here early, Maya Hart is never early," he said.
"My alarm clock wasn't working.." I had to think of an excuse, but I'm apparently terrible at that. Lucas seemed to linger on the thought for a while, so I quickly changed topics.
"Heyyyy Rileyy," I said
"Heyyyy Maya, guess what?"
"What?" I said with a small smile.
"Chicken butt!!" She said and laughed. I managed a small laugh, but not for long.
Farkle walked in with Mr.Matthews, deep in discussion. And class started.
"You will be working in a group activity. You will be writing the best things and the worst things about George Washington's presidency, and we will put them together in a collage for the school board. Before you get too excited, I will be assigning the partners." The class groaned, except Farkle looked more than happy to start. "The groups are: BLA and BLA. BLA and BLA BLA. Farkle and Riley." Mr. Matthews winked at Farkle when he said that, so that's probably what they were talking about earlier. Farkle looked like he was going to explode from happiness, but Riley looked very unhappy, but quickly hid it with a smile to Farkle. "BLA and BLA. And last but not least, Maya and Lucas." Lucas poked my back. "Wanna go to your house?" He whispered. I pancaked and my face grew white. "No!!" The class stared at me. "I mean, can we go to your house this time?"
"Sure."
