Alice
As I walk to third period, I harshly shove people out of my way. Some swear at me but I ignore it.  Five minutes after the bell rings I walk into creative writing class and slam the door shut.
"Alice. That is a late referral!" Ms. Milgrim says,
"Go ahead! Why don't you call the f*cking police while your at it!" I snap back, she opens her mouth at me but then just looks away.
As she explains the semi-colon rule I draw pictures of Kayo and I. Together. My eyes start to tear up. So I crumble my pictures and throw them in random directions.
"Alice! Counselors office!" Ms. Mirlgrim snaps, I stand and walk out the class room. Tho she told me to go to the counselors office, i sit in the bathroom listen Green Day until I hear the lunch bell.

I slowly eat my sandwich. I don't look up as my friends sit down.
"Alice your hair is a mess! Here lemme brush it out for you!" Lisa says, she pulls a comb out of her pocket and runs it through my ratty hair.
"It's sad on what happened to Kayo." Jean says, she smears red lipstick on her face.
"Yea. But the police will find her." Jamie says, I clench my fist a bit.
"Since she went missing, I became the leader of the theate-" I slam my fists on the table.
"ARE YOU THREE SERIOUS!" I shout, the whole cafeteria goes silent.
"What?" The three ask,
"YOU GUYS JUST TALK ABOUT MY BEST FRIEND BEING KIDNAPPED WITH BLANK SLATE! LIKE YOUR ONLY MENTIONING IT FOR ATTENTION! YOU EVEN HAVE THE AUDACITY TO SAY YOU BECAME THE LEADER OF A F*CKING THEATER CLUB BECAUSE SHE WENT MISSING!!" I point at Jean, "ITS SEEMS AS IF NOBODY IN THIS SCHOOL EVEN CARES THAT SHES GONE BUT ME!" I throw my sandwich towards Jean and storm out of the lunch room.
Nobody stops me as I leave the school.

I walk to the back of a caribou coffee and plop my bag down. I sit next to my bag and just burst. I hiccup as tears roll down my face, I scream my sobs out, until I calm down to the point where I'm only hiccuping. It feels like forever.
"Are you okay?" I hear someone ask,
"No. Go away!" I say,
"Do you want to talk about it?" He asks me,
"What do you not get about go- away?"
"Well I'm also here to take the trash out!" I hear a thump in the dumpster by me, "Anyway, what's got your goat?"
"I don't even know you!" I say,
"Maybe it's better that way." He rubs my shoulder,
"Well, hic- my best friend went missing two days ago. And it seems that nobody cares in my school but me!" I say,
"Hmm. What do you mean?"
"All of my quote' friends' end quote. Talk about her absence with a Blanc slate! Even talk about it like they're happy she's gone! I guess I was really her only friend!" I start to cry again,
"I think I have seen her before, o the news, what was she like?"
"She was everything you would want in a person. Smart, funny, kind, generous, and assertive. We would do projects together and play with her husky. Whenever I didn't have a vegetarian lunch option, she'd give me her lunch."
"She sure sounds like something. Anyway, it's freezing out here, you don't wanna catch a cold from the rain. I'll make you a coffee, on the house!" He says, i look up at him. He is really tall, even from on the ground I can see that. His name tag says Ant. He holds his hand out to help me up, I grab it and follow him in the coffee shop.

I look down at the pile of checks for the work I have done overtime. Three cost a lot, they probably miss me during the day. Especially Kayo, she seemed so happy when I offered her to cook! It's just another side of her I have never known. And Cleo has been plenty welcoming, I'm glad they get along!
I run my fingers through my hair, I hear a knock at my office door.
"It's open!" I say, a nurse rushes in.
"Doctor! A lady has gotten into a seizure!" I nod and rush out the door, pulling latex gloves on my hands. When I enter the room I am shocked at who I see, it's Kayo's mother.
"I want my baby back!" She keeps whimpering over and over. Hikary... what a lovely lady she is. She just doesn't love Kayo the way I do. And Kayo doesn't love her the way she loves me.
I snap back to reality when I'm handed a needle, probably to put her to sleep. I puncture it into her arm and she slows.
"My baby wants to come home! She's... probably.... frightened!" She then goes to sleep. I go out into the hall looking for her husband. He immediately stands up when he sees me.
"Where is Hikary? Is she okay?" He asks,
"She is okay, she was just having a panic attack." I say calmly,
"I want to see her! I want to stay with her!" I block his way to the hall.
"Sir I'm gonna request that you stay out here until she's ready. If you need someone to talk to you can go to Sue at the front desk." I say, I then subtly rush back to my office.
She wants to come home. Shes probably... frightened.
My blood boils under my skin. I stand and grab my coat, she doesn't want to come home and I'm gonna prove it! I clock out and rush to the car.
"Kayo is mine now! Whether you like it or not!" I drive as fast as I can home.

I jiggle my key through the front door, then the next door, and then the last door. When I burst in i see the three playing a card game. I look at my watch, 7:00!
"You didn't make dinner Kayo!" I shout, she shoots her head up.
"I- uh- forgot! Please! I'll make it now!" She gets up and tries to walk past me, but I grab her hair in response. I pull her so she's infront of me.
"Do you love me Kayo?" I spit, she looks down.
"Do! You! Love! Me!?" I repeat, she scrunched up her face.
"Do you love me?" She hisses back, my eyes widen.
"Of course I love you. But-"
"If you really love me, then why would you make me kneel on rice until my knees bled. While you slapped my friends with a ruler. If you loved me, why would you slap me on the face if I said I wasn't hungry. If you loved me, why would you stalk me until you knew my every move. If you love me then why would you take me from my home!" She spits at me,
".... You b*tch! After all I have done for you! You make it sound like I have sinned! No one cares about you like I do!" I shove her to the ground,
"No dinner tonight! Go to bed!" I say, I then storm  to my room. I slam the door and lock it. I take my journal off of my shelf.
Today wasn't good.
I start writing.
At first it was great. I got a load of checks, my patients were cooperative. Then Kayo's mother showed up from having a seizure. She claimed that she wanted to come home. And although Kayo and I got into a predicament today. We still love each other.

And I will never let her go!
