Chapter two - don't help me
_______

2:21pm - Mr. Sangler

I sit in a cushiony chair in front of a nicely sized desk. I gaze at Mr. Sangler, he is probably in his mid twenty's, he had short brown hair that's slicked back properly, he wears a button up shirt and dress pants. He is writing some stuff down on paper, he puts it away into a folder.

"So how are we doing today?" He asks me with a light smile on his face.

"Does it matter" I continue watching him until he pulls out another folder, that I know is my folder.

"Well of course it matters" he reassures me, it doesn't help.

Silence is what I give in return.

"Lunalyn, I can't help you if you won't talk to me" he states in a calm manner.

"And what makes you think I want help" I reply, emotionless, without any hesitation. He sighs heavily, and writes something down.

"What did you do today?" He asks with a hint of annoyance lacing his voice.

"My my, for someone who wants to help me, you seem bit annoyed by me" I spit the words out, I don't care what he thinks.

"I'm not- listen I want to help but I can't if you won't talk to me" he writes something else down, I paused and watch him write.

"Then don't help me" I leave no trace of anything in my voice. I stand up and grip the handle of the door.

"Personally, it doesn't matter if I get help or not, we all die and when we're dead it doesn't matter." With that I open the door and pull it closed behind me. Walking though the waiting room I pull open the main door only to be bombarded with someone else.

2:3pm - Hallway

"Kai" I say in a low mannered voice.

"Hey, you never told me your name" he says, a sly look upon his face.

"That's because it doesn't matter" again, monotone voice is what I give as a reply.

"I mean, it does to me" seriously, why can't this kid just leave. I reply with silence.

"I was just trying to make frien-" before he could finish I cut him off.

"Well you're making friends with the wrong person." To my surprise he chuckles.

"I'll see you around then, cutie" he does a little solute with his hand and walks off, I think for a moment, the hell-he called me cutie. I then walked towards the parking lot.

I hop in my car and start the engine. I drive, but not towards my house, I drive untill I reach a forest, where I park my car and get out. I lock my car and start walking through the forest, along the way a hidden path appears, as I continue down the path I reach a clearing, it has a small lake connected by a tiny stream. There are mounds of rocks along the outskirts of the clearing, along with a bench.

I don't sit on the bench, I sit on the ground against a tree. I sit there for hours, doing nothing. I watch the clouds, and I watch the water. I just sit there.

As the sun indicates it's setting, I stand and start heading out of the forest, I walk on the path, I walk untill I reach my car. I drive to the house, to the place where I live.

7:34pm - Monday Night

After I had arrived home, i threw my bag to the side and headed for my room, I grabbed my two towels hanging up and went into my bathroom. I placed my towels on the toilet and started the shower, hot.

After I shower, I run a brush through my hair. I threw my dirty clothes in the hamper, and brushed my teeth.

I throw on some sweatpants and a loose t-shirt. I lay in my queen sized bed. I lay there and stare at my ceiling, I think about what happened today. But it won't matter once we are dead. I close my eyes but I don't sleep. I never just sleep. I lay there and I think because all I want to do right now is disappear. But sleep doesn't seem half bad right about now.

6:36am - Wednesday Morning

I climb out of my bed, like every other day after turning my alarm off. I dress myself simple and brush my teeth and my hair.

I leave the house with my bag and keys before my mother notices. I start my Jeep and before you know it I'm already on the road.

I park my car in the back of the parking lot, I sit and wait. I wait until I feel like moving, then I finally get out and head into school. Before I could even make it to my locker I was stopped by none other than Kai himself.

"What do you want" I ask blandly

"Well morning to you too sunshine" he chuckles but I couldn't care less what the hell he does, but now he is interrupting me.

"Whatever, I gotta go" I push pass him to go to my locker, I grab my things and head off to class as I hear the late bell ring, now I am officially late to class. I should go but now that I'm late it doesn't matter.

I head back down the hall to my next class, I sit against a locker and stare at the wall opposite of me. That is untill someone blocks my view.

"Are you stalking me?" I ask, not showing any trace of annoyance.

"Well if that what you want to call it, so be it" he sits down against the wall and stares at me, making eye contact. I turn my head to look down the hall instead of him, I lean my head against the wall as I try to drift away.

"So, why are you skipping class"

"I was late, so it didn't matter anyways"

"You go to counseling?"

"No, I just so happened to be there"

"Really?"

"Nope"

"Why do you always talk monotone?"

"I don't know"

I stood up before he could ask any questions.

"Stop asking questions alright, I just want to chill"

He stood like me, and smiled.

"If you wanted to chill you could of just said so"

I wiggled my eyebrows in confusion.

"Come on, we can go chill somewhere else"

He was walking towards the exit. I guess there wasn't really a choice in the matter. I followed him.

"You gotta car?"

"Yeah"

"Cool"

I walk to the place where I parked my car, at the far end of the lot.

"Why do you park so far away, damn"

"Because I always do, stop asking questions."

"Fine"

I unlocked the car doors and climbed into the driver's seat, I stuck the key in the ignition and started the engine.
