"There has to be some mistake." My fist curled, grasping the fabric of my dress.

"I turned those in, on time and complete." I looked at the professor with a bewildering look.

"No, Mila, you turned one in. It wasn't even completed. The rest of those are missing." He sighed, rumeging through his drawer and pulling out a single folder. "Report number 6, its missing a lot but I gave you a C."

"This can't be true, I set them on your desk, I completed all 7 essays. I spent all week on them." My lungs transferred air rapidly, taking it in and out like a ventilator.

"I'm sorry, I didn't receive anything." I stood helplessly, feeling like the most defeated person in the universe, wanting to crawl up and die.

Sobs slowly formed and my body shook with an emotion deeper than sadness and more painful than anger.

Blaming something was foolish now but somehow I felt this was my punishment for causing the murder of a young man I once loved. A cruel punishment that would cost me everything.

I crawled on my knees and began praying, praying to whatever was up there to save me. Hoping everything would stop falling apart.

I dragged my body, screaming at sky, surrendering to whatever strong power was above me.

God, save me.
