Brooklyn's POV

I go through the days quietly.

I speak to noone

Each school day I just keep my head down.

Nothing had been the same since the accident.

I haven't been happy since.

I mean how could I?

I lost the only person who ever loved me.

After school everyday, I walk outside and down the hill, to the river and sit in what used to be our spot. And think about our memories together.

I hate everything about life now.

I can't stand living it.

But the thought of ending it scares me.

I hear my name being called from the house.

James. My step-dad.

"Come on Brooklyn. Dinners ready" He yelled so I could hear him from where I was.

I get up and make my way up the hill and inside the house, knowing he wasn't going to let me not eat another meal.

I haven't eaten all day.. I have been telling him I wasn't hungry. But I am.. I just don't see the point anymore.

I walk inside and he has my plate made.

"Please. Eat." He said with a sad look on his face.

I look up at him and nodded slowly taking the plate.

I sit down and eat a few bites of the mashed potatoes and a little of the chicken.. I eat a little of the mac and cheese, I mean it is my favorite...

I look up at him and he looks down at my plate.

"A little more?" He asked me with pleading eyes.

I nodded a little and ate the rest of the mac and cheese and another bite of potatoes and then looked up at him once again.

"Very well" He sighed.

I grabbed a water and went up to my room.

I shut my door and blink away the tears.

I have cried too much.

I take out my current book I am reading and continue on the page I was on.

I look out the window and could see out to the river. I look at the house on the other side of the river and see something new.

People..

Did someone move in over there?

I shrug it off and just continue reading my book.

That seems to be what I do a lot of lately.

Read.

And It is the only happiness in my life.

Books.

Short Chapter, They will get longer. Don't worry :)
