(This will be quite a short chapter but it's definitely worth reading) 

We are led to the justice building and I am shown to a small room. The first person to say goodbye is Prim.

She runs into my art ms and immediately I start to sob.

"Don't Misty,please don't" Prim whispers. "You'll be ok"

She says it, even though we both know I won't be ok, I just won't.

Prim runs out of the room.

More people come in. Mother comes to give me my medicine and give me one last lingering hug. Other people come in, congratulating me for volunteering, telling me I'm brave. Then everybody leaves and I am alone with my thoughts.

There are so many thoughts in your head.

Like you'd be better off dead, better off dead

But let me tell you, 

There's a whole world waiting for you.

It's hard to believe but it's true. Whoa.

So just hold on for me, hold on for me.

Cause' I believe if you go, 

My heart would break, just hold on one more day.

And If you go I think my heart would break

And if you go I think my heart would break

You are so worth it.

I promise you this, I promise you this.

I promise that you are capable. Whoa.

I promise you this, I promise this

I promise you that, you are strong

I promise you this, I promise you this, 

I promise that you are capable.
