I sat outside my house. My song book and pen in handy. The guitar layed on the step below me. I look up, it was the evening. Nobody talked in our group chat. I haven't heard from them since the end of school yesterday. I jotted down some lyrics and grab my guitar.

Theres not enough colors in the world,
thought I would invent some
Or fade to black, jump-cut to alone,
cross fade to emotion

I'm done running away. Repree is a new beginning and these friends, I'm going to keep. I wont let people like Madison push me to run away. I'm not a coward. Our next song should be one that I wrote. I think were ready. I grab my phone and type in our group chat.

Sami: Hello? Everyone's MIA
Jason: Yo
Marisol: Finally
Kai: what? oh?
Marisol: kai ur capitalization
Kai: Oh shit.
Jason: u lost ur good grammar streak
Kai: I've been thinking... of many things.
Sami: i think our next song should be composed... by me.
Jason: are we ready
Marisol: why wouldn't you be u doofus
Jason: LOL you're right mari
Kai: I think that we are ready. We shall perform Sami's music now.

I wait a while.

Sami: where's Justin
Marisol: ...
Jason: hes gone MIA
Kai: You're right. Where is he? Justin is an idiot.
Sami: huh
Kai: Justin has had his time by himself. I am going to his house... right now.
Jason: I'm coming
Marisol: Jeez

I close my book and put my guitar back in its case. I want to keep these friends. I want to keep Justin.

Sami: I'm coming too.

This town is pretty small. I knew where Justin lived and i could walk there. I walked. When i got to the front of his house I saw Jason and Kai.
"Yo Sami" Jason says. I wave.
