letter exchange 2

dear zach,

i will try not to go back. the people here arent very nice, though. i hate their tough-love policy. dont they know that thats what got me here?

my classmates are all quiet and dont really talk. there are some who always try to pick fights, its kinda scary. i got hit once, i hurt myself purposely later that same night. i didnt even get caught!

as for my roommate, she always makes fun of me because im not good at school. it hurts. i dont judge her and shes got to be here for a similar reason.

i dont think living here has helped me. save me zach. you always do! just one more time.

to answer your question: once. just once. around the time when i first had started. you were tutoring me and told me i wasnt trying hard enough. i felt so stupid! but its okay, its not your fault zach. you didnt mean to hurt me.

dying to see you again. -lindsey

dear lindsey,

things will fall into place with your classmates, eventually. please, dont resort to harming yourself. you have a counsellor there for a reason. if you ever try harming yourself again, and i hear of it, i might die inside

as for your roommate, thats not okay. ask her to stop, talk to her. maybe thats why shes here. if it still doesnt go well, talk to me about it and request a new roommate.

im so sorry that i was the cause for one of those scars on your wrists. its eating me away. when i see you again, i will try to kiss all of your scars away even though its impossible to kiss away scars.

youre beautiful, lindsey. beautiful, smart, sweet. i love you. see you soon, love.

youre perfect. -zach
