"Hey Chloe I'm home!" Taylor called out with excitement. I heard the front door close.
I quickly stood up and walked over to the sink. I rinsed my arms and wrapped them up. I picked up my blade and hid it in the drawer.
I heard her footsteps coming up the stairs. They were getting closer. I pulled my sweatshirt sleeves over my arms and got on the bed.
*knock knock*
I quickly grabbed a book from the table beside the bed.
"Come in." I said. She walked in.
"I didn't get caught." I said.
We talked for a little longer, and then I left.
*later that day*
It's hard to talk about what happened. What it felt like to lose everyone I loved. It's not just that though. School sucks.
I'm just the new kid that no one likes,but I'm okay with that.
I tried to distract myself with different things like reading and Netflix, but it's just not helping.
I want to be alone.
"Hey Aunt Jennah, I'm gonna go for a walk." I said putting my shoes on.
"Ok, don't be out to late." She says.
I run outside. The cool night air surrounds me. I start running. I wish I could run away from my problems, but I can't.
I try not to cry, but a few tears escape anyway.
After running for a while I see a park. I sit against a tree and let it out. Tears stream down my face and I'm glad no one is around.
Suddenly I hear a twig crack. I freeze.
"Who's there?" I called out. Maybe it was just an animal.
Suddenly I saw someone step out of the shadows. Great. Someone just found me crying. I'm such a loser.
