Rose's POV
When I woke up I was in my bedroom. The last thing I remember was that my face went into the shower's wall. I think that Natalie slammed me into the wall. I'll just tell Mom that I slipped on some soap and crashed in to the wall. I got up to look at myself in the mirror of my vanity. Then, Mom walked in and dialed a number on the phone when she saw me get up.
"Oh good, your up," she then dialed a number and started talking,"Yes, this is Sara Carpenter, mother of Rose Carpenter...yes...about her concussion...um hmm...well she woke up and is moving around now...ok...alright I will, hang on. Rose, lay back down. The doctor said you can't get up or go to school the rest of the week."
Yes, yes, yes. No seeing Natalie all day!
That's when she continued her conversation with the doctor.
"Yes Dr.T, if there's anything going on with her I will inform you...okay...um hm...okay...yes...Tylenol...thank you..bye."
I wonder what happened. I looked at the clock and it was already 5:47. Did I really faint for that long? At least I'm at home and won't be getting hit by anyone this week, which was good news for me. If I could, i would much rather get homeschooled. When I found out that I was going to a private school I never thought it was going to be so bad. Most of the people that I knew were going to that school so I figured it would be fun. But boy was I wrong.
Mom came up to me and tried to comfort me. I tried to get up again but she told me to sit down.
"Honey what happened? Your classmates said that you slipped while taking a shower."
Is that the lie that they told about what happened. Oh well, I'll have to go along with it or else she'll start to get suspicious
"Yeah Mom," I lied," I slipped on some soap and I guess I landed face first into the wall. What a klutz." I gave a fake smile.
"Okay then, well I let you get some rest now. Just stay in bed. I'm going to Walgreens to get your prescription that the doctor gave. Love you."
"Love you too"
I reached for my phone and went on Facebook. People were messaging me stuff about Natalie's boyfriend. I was confused. I didn't have anything to do with him. Some stuff said
Don't think u have a chance with him freak
I hope your happy that u took Natalie's man. Now she's going to make u suffer lol
U really think u have a chance???
Die, no one wants you anyways
I'm surprised that your mom even wants you.
I started crying. I threw my phone even though I just got it. It was an iPhone 7plus. My mom gives me everything since I'm her only one.
I got up and reached for the blade I kept above the door frame. I immediately raised my pants and carved death into my skin. I then went to the top of the stairs and jumped off of them. It was a tall stair case. I was going to die soon but it's not like anyone cared.
I landed on the ground back first. It had to be a 15 foot tall. I was out like a light............
