Three days before graduation.
Three days for me to prepare a speech.
But in those three days, I wasn't going to be able to mend my broken heart.
I sat at my desk, trying to formulate words to create a speech.
My prompt- Describe Your Highschool Expierence?
It was great, up until senior year.
Heartbreaks from family and friends.
Ethan knew how to write so beautifully. I was hoping for him to be able to help me.
That ship has crashed.
I start writing, open honesty only, about my highschool expierence.
The ups and downs, the classes, teachers, students- everything.
Down to the last month.
The pen moved furiously over the paper, the blue ink that once sat was creating something mediocore.
Once I finished, I folded it into three and set it in my drawer. Revision would come later.
My mind hurt, my heart ached more. I needed a break from that.
I got up to take a shower, when Alice texted me.
Alice: Hey! Want to get Starbucks with Gray and I?
I read the message, my mind debating if I really wanted to.
Alice has been trying to hang out with me for so long, but I keep putting it off.
Truthfully, I enjoy being alone right now, wallowing in my pain by myself.
Going out and trying to act like I'm fine really isn't something I care to do.
Me: I was just about to shower
Alice: We'll get you in 20!
Damn.
Me: Autumn reacted with thumbs up
I set my phone on the counter and started the water.
I looked in the mirror, slowly peeling my shirt off. I looked worn out and sad.
I hated it.
I had bags under my eyes and a look of pain in them.
I hated it.
I had a heart broken, but could easily be fixed if I just went to him. I fear it though, I fear hurting him because I'm hurting.
And I hated it.
I got dressed in a pair of highwaisted shorts and a maroon top. Pulling my hair into a messy bun, I slid on my white and gold adidas.
As I went downstairs, my dad was in the living room.
"Hey." I turned the corner.
"Hi sweetie." He got up, "You look nice. Going out?"
I nodded and watched the look of relief spread across his face.
I hadn't wanted to do anything, I could tell how worried he was becoming.
It wasn't helping the situation him and my mom were in, so I just stayed in my room as much as possible.
"Your mom went to the store." He made his way into the kitchen, me following.
"Okay." I shrugged and grabbed my keys off the hook.
"I'm sorry about your graduation party."
