I ran in the bathroom and thought to myself My name is Grace and this is my beautiful life . I cover my ear and silently cry to myself all I could hear were police sirens
The problem is I never thought I was beautiful, nor did I feel beautiful inside
I use to ask god "why did he have to make me a girl to even have to care about beauty?"
Present (happening now)
Now I just ask God "why should I care about anything at all?"
Exhale I start to think about my best friend spinning around on one of them spinning things at the park. All the fun we had when we were lighting up sparks they usually have on the 4th of July, but it's was that we just did it to have fun I can see her bright million dollar smile as we chase each other around with the sparks in are hand "best friends forever dink" we touched are sparkes together
The banging on the door broke me loose from my thoughts, I opened my eyes
"Open the door little girl" i heard my mom practically yell, I roll ma eyes and open the door and walk right passed her, without a word exchanged by either of us I had to iron one of my moms shirts for some thing she won't tell me about but whatever like I care, she walks out her room with a black pencil skirt and black bra on.
I walk to my room and just stare at my mouse me and India found and the only thing I have left of her except one or two pictures we have together, my mom walks in the room
"You and that damn mouse, that thing need to hurry up and die" she say while lighting up a cancer stick what I call it without a care in the world, I just turn around and gave her one of those looks

" I know, I shouldn't be talking about your little friend like that." She sign while puffing her cancer stick
She turn around and stare at me while blowing smoke in the air "is that how you're going to school?" "Aren't you excited bout your first day of your senior year?" Chuckles "need to move on with your life, Grace we come into this world alone... and we leave alone" she say waving her cancer stick around
"GIRL, DO YOU HEAR ME TALKING TO YOU!!" She scream "yes I hear you" I respond
"Good I'm working late tonight" she shift all her weight on her other leg "and then I got a date" she puffs her cancer stick "so dinners on you" "bye" she says offaly harsh
I just sat there in my same spot staring at my all white mouse
I was told my name Grace, meant something. That eventually my name would remind me of who I am and what I would need in order to survive in this world. But I never imagined my senior year to be like this....... alone
I stood by myself at the bus stop as this big group start gossiping like teenagers these days does, A girl that looks a little older than me pulls up and stops at stop sign 🛑 and stares at me while humming what on the radio and pulls off and I just stare, I done know why she just look familiar.
The bus pulls up and everyone piles on I just look for a seat away from everyone
In this beautiful life, I'm starting to think that people take themselves too serious. It's like all they care about is who they hang out with, how they look or who has the latest iPhone or newest pair of Jordan's
It's all....about....being..........cool
But inside... I bet they feel like shit, of people were to walk around the way they actually felt inside I bet we'd all just be a bunch of dead zombies walking this earth.
The announcement started as I heard the principal voice "welcome back students!!" "hopefully, everyone had an amazing summer spending time with loved ones" I hear her voice as I'm walking down the hallway to my locker but of course everyone staring at the so called " weird girl that liked her best friend more than a friend as they say" " I want you all to think seriously about college" " college education is the surest way to better life"
"On a more serious note I'm sure that your aware that we experienced tragedy over the summer with one of our students, may I remind you that we have a zero tolerance for bullying policy, everyone please respect and support one another we're here to help.... here's to an amazing first day and stellar coming year Gooooooooo Admirals!!!"
As I open my locker after putting my code in I see a picture of me and my two best friends well the other one was our best friend but I'll get to that some other time
