Vic’s POV

 

 

I didn’t sleep at all that night. In fact, I didn’t even feel tired. I was distracted, so very distracted and I couldn’t keep my mind off the river the other day. I hadn’t any idea that Kayleigh was so similar to me. We had been through the same things, and I was feeling very depressed because of how quickly I judged her at the beginning of our ‘friendship’.

So there I lay, in the middle of my bed, looking up at the ceiling and trying to hold myself together before I drowned in a pool of my own emotions. I felt like the most hypocritical person ever. I get shitty at people who judge, but that’s exactly what I do. It’s sad really. But I guess that’s how my mum brought me up. She was exactly the same. Would judge everyone she looked at but got mad when someone judged her. Really, I am just like my mum.

Maybe that’s why I hate myself so much.

 

 

I didn’t really want to get out of my bed. But then again, I needed to check the time. However, judging by how bright the sun was from outside my window, it was at least 1pm. Maybe even 2. But it was also near the end of winter, so really it could be any time.

My stomach grumbled, begging for food. I hadn’t eaten in a while, so there was really no other option than to comply. I rubbed my eyes, still feeling that awful low feeling I hadn’t been able to get rid of for years. My bones ached as well. And my muscles. Everything just felt weak and yucky. Especially my stomach. 

I threw the blankets off my body, feeling the slightly warmer version of the winter chill that I had been experiencing the past month. I had warm clothes on, long pants and a long sleeve shirt but I still felt cold. My teeth chattered as I exited my room and walked towards the kitchen. I smelt food being cooked, giving off the sweet scent of pancakes. My stomach grumbled again, which made me smack it, trying to get it to shut up. I opened the door to the kitchen and was stunned with who I saw there.

Janice.

And Kayleigh of course, but I was unpleasantly surprised with Janice being there. I didn’t notice Kayleigh at first; I was too busy giving Janice a death look. It was only until Kayleigh said good morning that I realised that she was in the room.
