I fall to the floor, torrianna, my best friend, how could this happen.... I yell at Tiffany "HOW? WHY?" as tears are streaming down my face rapidly. she kneels down beside me and puts her arm around me, and softly says "hey, it's okay.... she's in a better place now" i nod slowly "i didn't know how close you were to her, but how did you not know?" Tiffany says, still trying to comfort me. wiping the tears off my face i say "i just thought she moved schools..." she hugs me a bit tighter and says "You poor thing...". " how did this happen?" i ask tiffany. she takes a deep breath "this all happened just over a year ago, March 29th to be exact. she was walking across the street to get to some girls house when a school
bus ran her over. she ended up breaking 4 ribs and her skull and since no one was there to see this happen she bled to death. a very sad death that left the entire school shaken." i start crying more then i run into the girls washroom. how could this lead up to that? just because my sister wasn't there..... and then i remember, this happened in my normal world. but after 2 minutes my sister noticed her and called 911 and because of that she lived. because my sister wasn't there no one was there to call the ambulance, so she died. i didn't want it to be true i wanted them to say APRIL FOOLS and for tori to pop out of her old locker and for tiffany to wipe off that lipstick. but they didn't. this was happening and it wasn't a dream. i walk outside to see tiffany standing outside waiting for me. she told me that she is going to her resting place this weekend just to be there for her again and asked if i would like to join, i agreed silently. Tiffany says she has cheerleading to go to and she will see me later. I start walking to class, thinking about torrianna, how much i missed her already, i walk into class with tears still running down my face. this is the one day that i probably shouldn't have put on mascara. i sat down at my seat as i tried to listen, but i couldn't. the Swirling thoughts that my friend was gone, and i will never see her again haunted me. it haunted me like a ghost, or a demon. this was one of the longest 45 minutes of my life. when class was over i rushed out. I Needed to ask tiffany more, when did this happen? how did the school react? was there a memorial for her? as i was rushing out i accidentally ran into someone, she falls to the floor and her books scatter the hall. i started to pick up her books while saying i'm sorry and that I wasn't paying attention. i looked over to hand her the books, she was tall but a bit bony and had very thin and slightly messy hair. she looked up trembling "tha-a-ank yo-u-u-u". I fell backwards in shock "Bethany?"
