By 8:25 I walked passed all kinds of things. I walked passed a playground, a candy shop (I didn't even know those still existed), some normal stores and a bunch of houses and apartments. I don't even know where I am anymore. I ended up at the bottom of a hill that led up to a church and a cemetery. So I walked up the hill and through the cemetery. There was lots of people buried there. I was reading names and looking at all the pretty flowers left at people's graves. I thought I was okay now that I didn't have to deal with everything but I guess not.... Because I kinda started wishing I was one of them. Nobody would notice anyways, nobody would even care. My family will forget about me by next week anyways and Lindsey could make new friends. Do I even have a purpose?
Ow! I was on the ground. I tripped over something and hit my head. But what had i tripped over? I turned around and didn't see anything there so I figured I just tripped over my own foot.... Maybe.
I ended up at the front of the church. They had all of their services on a sign in the front. Oh look at that, they have Wednesday services! I decided to attended the services. I didn't have any other plans and the whole cemetery experience was kinda creepy too. Plus could grow in my faith. I haven't been to church since I was little except the one time a few years ago with Lindsey anyways so in I went.
The service was good. I learned some stuff and talked to some people afterward. I wish the people there were my family. They all welcomed me. They made me feel like I belonged, and I've never belonged anywhere before....
