Not Like Her (Darker Days Series #1)

Chapter 7: Suspicions

Tuesday, October 15th, 3:21pm,

So today is Tuesday and well I've got a couple parts started for my torture device. The base was the easiest and that's already done. A couple people asked me what it's gonna be and I told them it'd be something to fix a person's way of standing and possibly their stature. My friends called me a genius, but I feel bad for lying to them. I think Frannie is suspicious because she saw my artbook with all my torture device ideas in it so now she's staying away from me and keeps giving me her nervous glare. Yes, she glares at people when she's scared or nervous, it's kinda weird. Anyways, Alyssa and Zach haven't been at school for the past couple of days and I don't know why. I tried calling them but they won't pick up their phones. On a good note, Sabrina didn't bother me today, and Hollister gets along with Rigsby and Morocco.

My mom broke her foot yesterday and it looked kinda cool. She told me to stop staring at it and get my dad, so I did and he took her to the hospital and they put it in a cast. Now she's in a wheelchair for a couple weeks, then she'll be switched to crutches. I hope she gets better soon because that's gotta hurt. I kinda feel bad because her and I were fighting and I pushed her down the stairs and heard it snap and that's how it broke. Then I just walked down the stairs and looked at it because I was curious to see what a broken bone looked like. Unfortunately, the bone wasn't sticking out of her ankle like I expected, but oh well. I just hope she gets better. Maybe I should apologize to her.

Alyssa and Zach were at school today and weren't sitting at the lunch table with me. They ditched me to go sit with the cool popular couples of the school. I went to the library to sit with Frannie, but when she saw me, she quickly got up and left, giving me her nervous glare as she did so. At least I could sit peacefully without being stared at in the library, and the librarian was quite nice.

My torture device is coming along nicely. I've almost got the parts arm finished. You know, the part that rips the spine out of the back? Also I found a good chain to use to wrap the fake victims hands together with. For the next few days, I'll just be finishing parts and putting stuff together.

That stupid cunt Sabrina decided to push me into the wall in gym today so I kicked her in the face and broke her nose. I don't care because it was probably fake anyways, but yeah, I got two days of after school detention for that. After school, I stopped at her house and waited for that annoying fluff ball bitch of a dog to come up to me, growling it's head of as usual. When it showed up at my feet, it growled and barked and bared its teeth, so I pinned it to the road and stomped on it's head, crushing it's skull beneath my foot. The crackling and squishing sounds of broken bone and mushed brain material made me smile, as it meant I had finally ended the little bastard's life. Blood just poured out of every crack and hole in the thing's head and I watched it bleed out before leaving it in the street and hurrying back to my house. I hope one saw me kill the dang thing. It deserved that death. I'll talk to you guys if I can after my after school detentions tomorrow and Friday.
