    " Marleih... are you okay ?" My mom asked, I glanced over at her as she stroked my now wet cheek. I've been crying for hours. My turtle died. I may seem like a big baby because of this, but Mr.Pickles meant alot to me. My mom got me Mr.Pickles on my 7th birthday. He was there through my bad times n good times.
I use to vent to him even if couldn't understand me.....

" Mom I'm fine... I already told you, I'll be fine, promise " I explained.

  My mom placed a fake smile, she got up and walked out my room. After she left, tears rosed up again, but I quickly wiped them away. " suck it up Mar"

I walked over to my purple journal where the title read ' MARLEIH'S PROPERTY ' in big bold letters. I sat on my bed and opens my journal where it had all my Poetry's. Poetry kinda been my thing for a long time now, I write whatever I'm feeling... sometimes I make my poems to songs.

    ' and every once in awhile ,
It would hit me, the horrifying truth of being alone. And it did not matter if I was with company or not. I would slowly feel violent pull of loneliness, shaking inside of me like a wild beast in the night '

" MARLEIH !! " my mom yelled,
I quickly closed my journal and threw it under my bed. " YESS MOMMA !"

" LOVELY IS HERE ! "

I rolled my eyes. Ugh Lovely. Look I ain't fake... but Lovely is annoying, she invites herself to everything! Literally. She also follows me ! I'm pretty sure you knew that.

I slowly walked down the stairs to see Lovely sitting on the couch. She had hair curly red hair slicked into the bun, along with an Adidas sweat suit, with converse on. One of my pet peeves don't wear converse with an Adidas sweat suit ! If you don't have Adidas.

  " Lovely, what are you doing here ?" I asked firmly.
" oh I was texting you but you weren't answering them, so I popped by. Anyways... my sister is going to Talent Tuesday today, and she invited me. " she explained smiling from ear to ear.

I smirked. Lovely is the type of person if you say no. Shell immediately think you don't like her.  She's a hand full. I barely met her this year, and everyone was so rude to her, I was kind enough to be her friend.

" um, congrats to her " I said calmly.
" she said I can invite a friend so I'm inviting you !'

I looked over at my mom who was putting lip stick on her lips, " Marleih go, I don't want you moping around about Mr.Pickles"

I looked back at Lovely who was already by the door. " fine I'll go " I said annoyed.

I grabbed my bag and walked out the door along with Lovely following me. I walked over to her car, it was a Toyota. It was bad looking it was actually nice.

    I hopped into the passenger seat, and waited till she started the car up. But she didn't. She just kept glancing at her wrist. I was purple and all bruised up.

" Lovely summon wrong ?" I asked.
She slowly looked over at me with tears filled in her eyes. " Mar-Marleih "
" Lovely what's wrong ?"
She wiped her tears, but they still kept rushing down her face. " Joey he um... he um hit me "

My eyes widened. Lovely was always so positive and sweet, to see her break down Madd me start crying.

" Lovely what the hell, why would he do that ?"

" he got upset about how much time I've been spending with Cory. But me and Corey are just friends "

   Lovely finally stopped crying and wiped her now puffy red eyes, " you need me to fuck him up ?"
