Dear Blair,

Honestly, darling, sounds like you're having a dreadful life wherever you are. I can just picture you, all sad and moping. Quite hysterical actually.

I know I shouldn't be telling you this, but I'm actually quite enjoying my new identity. It makes me like myself more. It's fun, I can be anyone I want to be. Have you heard from your brother? He won't answer me.

Your loving mother

Strangely enough, the school called for an assembly for all juniors and seniors to attended during my class of economics. Everyone was over the moon only because we had a test nobody had studied for. Can't say that I wasn't glad too.

Though, I was a little curious what this assembly was about. We rarely have any. I can't even remember the last one we had, must of been last year.

As my class made our way towards the sports hall where we usually have our assembly's, no one seemed to be talking about what it was about, they all just seemed happy to get out of class and from having to do work. Can't fault them there.

No sooner had I followed in after a large group of girls chattering loudly, my heart had dropped by what I saw before me.

It was just an ordinary couple talking privately with the principal of our school, but they weren't just any ordinary couple. They were Mackenzie's parents.

I could recognise them from a mile away by how often I see them in the towns weekly Sunday newspapers. They've been shown in it every week since the accident without fail.

I hadn't even realised I'd stopped walking when more students began flooding into the sports hall from behind me, cursing me to get moving and to get out of the way.

Shuffling forwards, I began moving and my heart leapt into my throat in complete fear. I'm pretty sure I look like a white sheet of ice right now and I definitely feel a dense sickness pitted in my stomach ready to unleash itself.

"You alright there?"

I grab my throat, trying to focus on my breathing, when I turn to the voice I nearly scream out loud, but cover my mouth just in time.

Kat's calculating eyes noticed the look on my horrified face and she stepped sideways with a guilty look on her face, "Sorry, didn't mean to scare you..."

"Y-you didn't" I lied, but my stammering gave me away.

Kat sighed and grabbed my arm, pulling me to the side as everyone else made their way up the bleachers in order to find a seat. I watched as she dragged me aside and then turned to face me.
