The Girl Behind the Light

Epilogue

At this point in history I've finally graduated, and now I'll be getting ready to go to Mountain Point City College, where I will continue to pursue literature and composition. I will hope to become a freelance author, and if I'm lucky enough, a play writer for Devin's father's theatre in Woodlake Empire. No one ever said I can't be both, so what's stopping me?

I never decided to date Ariana; she stood single as well but we stayed friends. It's been a fun one, but now that I'm gone from Fountain Valley High there isn't much to be seen with that friendship anymore.

Tori and Dillon ended up parting ways, as the relationship got abusive both physically and emotionally. Dillon got too sexual with her and got pissed when she refused to deal with his requests, and he couldn't help but have his hand say hello to her face. She came crying to me when it did, and we reminisced about what used to be of us. We also didn't end up getting back together for the sake of not ruining what will hopefully be a continually great friendship going forward. She's excited to march the Sun Devils still this summer with Ali, hopefully, they find something amazing out of their experiences.

Nate and Carol have continued to stay together, and look to be the ultimate power couple for years to come. Hopefully, the long summer won't change that, but knowing them it shouldn't. Nate is gonna be a stand-up comedian at Fountain Valley's premier restaurant and bar, "Frank's". Hopefully, that works out well for him, because if it does they'll hire him full time after he graduates, and hopefully from there he can make it big in Woodlake Empire. Carol was excited to hear and is planning to work there as a waiter when she is a senior. They really make some duo, truly they do.

Ariana has finally built up a huge following on Stream and is looking to become a full-time Streamer after she graduates. Her parents are excited to see her talent become so recognized, and now she is planning to join Chorus to further improve her skills and hopefully become a potential music artist in Woodlake Empire.

Her sister Carrie out of all these people was the only other one other than Dillon who's ending to the school year wasn't all that pretty. She ended up breaking herself down mentally and now is no longer the same person. Many of her friends have abandoned her and now she struggles to find anyone else to support her. It's been an ugly show to watch, which is why I changed the channel and watched the highlights for that later when others described her downfall word by word.

I've been so much more focused on me lately, especially as summer has finally come. I've decided to take an internship at the theatre I hope to work at, where hopefully with time I'll get my chance. It'll be great to learn from the best and see fictional stories be brought to life through those who spend many years learning how to be its performers. It should be great; can't wait until next week.

Although, of course, because of all this, I've decided to stop writing the daily journals. I love making these stories through what I've already written, but now I must learn to make stories without them. If the time comes and I have something in my life to write about again, surely you'll see me around again. It's all in a matter of time before I come out behind the light again, just like her...
