I wake up. Eat some cereal and head to school. The same car, same people for the past 8 years now. Almost nothing's changed! But after today, everything is. Today's my last day at my school till' I move. Recently, I've lost friends and made people hate my guts. One of my "ex-friends" Kiera who used to be my best friend now hates me. I just did something and acted stupidly. Kiera actually moved schools last year so I'm no longer able to say goodbye to her. And it just makes me feel so bad because I feel like I broke her and I'm not able to apologize.

After I walk through the school gates, some of my friends are there to greet me! People who have stuck with me for years through thick and thin. The first person, I see almost every day named Sky, she was always there for me when I needed it and even when I didn't know I needed it. As well as my friend Ayla who till Secondary School started I barely knew but we've grown so close together and she's helped me, so much. After greeting my friends with warm hugs and just a little tears the bell rings. I wasn't worried about any of the classwork since it was my last day and I won't even be here to receive my grades. I fly through my classes, Science, PE, I&S, PA, Design, and English. It's all gone. So fast. Staring at the clock till I hear the bells not listening to the teachers nor my friends.

I decide to stay at school after hours. There's a café in front of our school that I'd go to nearly everyday to hang out with my buds. I stayed there for 3 hours today to try and get the most out of the day, I blew all of my allowance on food and drinks that I barely got to eat myself. It was so worth it though. I've been crying for the last hour because I know that I'll probably never see these people again. And honestly, I don't know how to go on without them.

I start sobbing really hard because I have to leave. I gave my last hugs and got into my parent's car. they asked me "You ready?" I said "No. One last thing..." I told my parents to head to Kiera's place. I had bought a big plushie based off one of her favorite TV Shows, I just wanted to apologize one last time. By the time we got there, I had stopped crying. I walked out of the car and greeted her dad. "Are you here for Kiera?" he asked me. I said no. I dropped the box with the plush inside, outside her door. Dropped my note and left.

I knew she didn't want to see me so it was better she didn't I thought to myself. But before I could leave she opened the door. She was wearing my Hoodie, the one I gave her a year back. When I turned around I started crying and I started walking towards her. Then. she slammed the door.

I knew I was right. I went home and waited until I had to head to the airport. What a day.
