"No, he can't!" I broke into a cry as pair of arms wraps itself around me.

"I'm very sorry." I heard the doctor say.

Why? He can't be gone. "Can I see him?" I pull away looking at him. He nods, leading the way. He slowly turns the door handle as I suck in a breath. Slowly taking my steps inside of the room, I see my dad with pale skin lying on the hospital bed with no colors to his face. This pain inside of me killed me quickly inside as I collapsed beside the bed of my dead father.

"Dad!" I cry out, putting my arm around his waist. "Why?! I need you!" I cry into his hard chest that I couldn't hear his heartbeat. My cheeks were soaking up my face quickly. I grip harder "Dad, why couldn't you just let me say goodbye?" I let out another loud cry, ignoring all of those around.

"Dad!" I call out loudly through my cracked voice "Why?" I shout.

"Come on, Dara." I heard a crying voice, which I knew immediately it was Gia. "No, I don't want to." I nearly yell at her. She places a hand on me and start to cry with me. The door slams from behind me "Mom!" I heard Sara shout as another door slam came. "I'm so sorry, Dara." she kneels beside me crying.

Walking through the halls of the unwelcome place called school I felt every eye on me with pity. It's been a week since my dad died and today is the day. Ignoring everyone's stares I walk into the principal's office.

"Ms. Costello, please take a seat." he gesture his arm to the leather seat in front of the dark wooden desk. I sat down, sighing deeply. "How are you doing?" he asks nearly whispering, sitting down.

I stared at the wooden floor not bothering to look up. All I could feel is pain, guilt and heartbroken that I can't bring myself to speak.

"Ms. Costello?" he raise his voice with authority. "How are you feeling?" he asks once more.

Glancing slowly to Principal Rhodes, he glared with a pity look. "I feel," I force out "horrible." He drew out a deep sigh, unfolding his hands "I'm really sorry, again. I called you here because I wanted to talk to you about your grades."

"What about them?" I mumble loud enough for him to hear. Slumping in my chair, I glared at his face. I just want school to end early, so I could get away from this place.

"I'm worried about them because they're dropping and you know you can't get a failing grade." He raises his brows.

"So? I already have all my credits." I say flatly.

"Ms. Costello, either you get your grades up or I'll hold you back." He says with authority.

"You may be dismissed." He says before I could speak. Letting out another sigh he gesture his hand to the door.

I slowly made up my way slowly to the door. I stopped in my tracks with my hand on the door knob. Slowly turning around to face Principal Rhodes "You don't know how hard my life's been lately. So, you'll have to doubt that I'll get my grades up." I say turning, walking out the door.

Walking into the girls bathroom, I washed my face "Well, well, well, look what we have here." I turn to see Lauren's posse, but Lauren is missing from the group.

"What do you want?" I say drying my face with my arm, walking pass them out of the bathroom.

"It seems daddy isn't here anymore." A brunette girl says stepping forward. She pouts pretending to cry the way Lauren always has done it. "Daddy can't save you anymore. He didn't want you!" she push me making my tumble back "Maybe if you had died, he would've lived."
