    I watched as the world crumbled before my very eyes. I never meant for things to turn out the way they did, i just wanted to be heard for once in my life. People have always told me i really couldn't do it, guess I showed them. But I think this time i went too far, I just wanted to show people that i could really do it. But I am starting to get ahead of myself, let me start from the beginning. My name is Angelina Allred, or what people used to call me in high school, the mute. They would call me this because they thought i was painfully shy, but the truth was i lost my motivation to talk a long time ago. My older brother died when i was 10, he was my best friend , we would do everything together. Everybody said he was going to do great things when he grew up but he never got the chance. That mid-november came and my older brother began to fall very ill. They said it was some kind of rare disease that only affects 1% of the world's population. They told him he was going to be fine and for a while i began to believe it too. But as the days went on i could see the flicker of hope slowly begin to fade. My best friend friend died that very next fall. It ripped my family completely apart,my parents stopped paying attention to the world around them. They blamed themselves said they could have done more to help. When i told them it wasn't their fault they began to shut me out too. Eventually my dad came back to reality and said he was going to go get milk and i haven't seen him since. It's been eight years and i'm still waiting on that milk. Ever since that day i lost all motivation to talk , hence how my nickname came to be. I would walk those halls like a zombie, i was about ready to give up but then a new person came to town.
"Hi im Matthew, friends call me Matt. I'm new here i was wondering if you could show me around.?" The new kid asked me as  approached my locker.
"I'm not really the type of person who shows people around." I said as i tried tp get into my locker.
"The front office said we have all the same classes together so you have to show me to them." He said with a proud smirk on his face.
"fine,"I said closing my locker and walking away not paying attention to see if he followed me, " Don't expect me to wait around for you."
"Okay great.' Matt said struggling to catch up with me.
As the days went on I found myself actually enjoying his company, we were doing everything together. For once I actually had a friend to talk to and eat lunch with. M depressing life had actually turned a toll and i was starting to feel happy again. But you see that didn't last  too long. Matt was trying out for football, so how football works works at my school is you could be the worst player alive but if you have in good in with the quarterback then your life would set. So matt has been ditching me this whole week to try and hang out with the football guys.
"It's just until I get on the team." Matt said as we walked to me locker.
"Okay," I said signing, " Just don't forget about me okay?"
"You kidding me," He said pushing me " How could i ever forget my best friend?"
I smiled as he walked away. I thought we were going to be inseparable, but i guess that all changed the moment he put that jersey on.
"Okay man." the quarterback Bradley said as he punched matt in the arm," We finally picked what you are going to do for your little initiation task."
"What initiation?" matt asked looking puzzled.
"The one that you have to do an order to be a part of the team." Bradley said laughing.
"Oh okay," Matt said " What did you have in mind?"
"Oh you'll see."Bradley said with a evil look on his face.
The next day Matt was acting really weird and only talked me one to tell me he was sorry. I didn't know what he was talking about, but I quickly found out why. I opened my locker and gallon and gallons of milk poured out of my locker. I was covered from head to toe in Mille. I sold there in a puddle of Milk, people were starting to gather by this point. Many laughed and printed taking pictures as I walked by. But I wasn't embarrassed I was really mad. Mad that I had put all my trust into a person like Matt. I guess I always let those who don't deserve to be in my life. I had to pass by Matt on my way out of the building he walked right up to me. I didn't give him a chance to explain himself I walked right passed him and out the doors. That night I thought of the most greatest plan that would show then to never underestimate me again. This plan is going to guarantee that no one will ever hurt me again . I'm going to show them
