Mike's Point of View:
I wasn't sure if I should look in the book or not. Of course I agree with what Phoenix told me when he gave it to me, but I wasn't sure if it's what Chester wanted. I didn't know how Phoenix resisted the temptation of revealing what Chester's been hiding, but I knew that I wasn't strong enough to avoid looking. I slowly opened it, feeling guilty as I did.

My mom and dad found the cuts. They know now. I wish they didn't find out but they disagree and say it's for the better. They took me to a therapist who's insisting I write in this shit. He said I only had to do this for a week if I don't like it - which I don't. This is incredibly stupid. My parents shouldn't even be paying for this, they're too poor for it. I feel horrible.

Cuts? Was Chester self harming as a teen? I assume that's when he was writing this. I felt horrible and contemplated weather or not I should continue reading. I caved and flipped to the next page.

I hate everyone at school, they hurt me. Always saying mean things to me and tossing me around like a rag-doll. It's torture, I can't put up with it much longer. Hurting myself helps but it's never enough. I want to leave it all behind, I just want to let go and never come back.

Suicide?! My Chazzy was thinking about suicide? Oh god, I feel so bad for him. He shouldn't have had to deal with all that bullshit. As horrible as I feel, I forced myself to continue.

I'm out of the therapists now. My parents divorced and now they're both broke but I'm continuing this book thing on my own. I don't know why, but it feels like this book replaces the place of a friend. It doesn't make me feel so lonely.

Chester... I just wanted to hug the life out of him. His entire life was filled with sadness, he deserves so much better. I wish I could give him everything he deserved.

There's this guy I met on the streets. He sold me drugs. I've never realized just how amazing they were, it's such a pain reliever. He introduced me to his friend, Elisa-
--
Elisa?! I slapped the book shut and stood up, sticking the book in my bag. This girl was close to a drug dealer and Chaz?! Them being together is definitely not a good idea. I quickly raced out of the room, trying to remember which one it was before Chester makes a huge mistake.
