I woke after feeling the sunlight hit my face as always, I got up annoyingly and got dressed. Even though I was afraid of the consequences that I would face at school I still went either way. "This'll be fun, I guess" I got an apple and left to school.

When I arrived I saw police cars parked in front of the school. I put my hoodie on to hide my face and went right past them to the front entrance of the school. I was greeted with mean comments and obviously Louis, he didn't look too happy nor mean. He had a sinister smile on his face. How I wished I could just straight up punch him in the face till his face gets swollen, but unfortunately I couldn't do that since I'm already in big trouble.

Mr. Neil then comes towards me and takes me to the guidance room, "After I came back all I saw was the girl on the floor and you gone." My face was turning red, I was sweating and shaking, scared to admit what happened and that it was all my fault. All I could do right now was run away, far, far away from here, somewhere where no one will ever bother me or find me. "I didn't do anything, me and the girl were talking until we began arguing so I left." I knew they'll find out the truth either way, I couldn't admit it, so I walked away to class.

Class was normal as always but just that people kept bothering me so I couldn't focus, either way I kept worrying inside. My life had been ruined by just one small argument between the person that I hold most dearest to. All I had had been taking away, crushed, and what I had left was nothing to me. I then felt something in my pocket? I took it out and saw... the envelope! I remembered I tore it apart! How could it be in my pocket again.

I asked the teacher if I could go use the restroom, I then went sneakily towards the bathroom and read the note, it said the exact same thing but at the bottom it read "you can't run away from me... think about it." I tore it apart again and got out a lighter and burned it in the sink, this'll definitely be gone for sure. I then rinse it with water to prevent it from burning any further, I head back to class, or so I thought I would.

Before I came to the restroom I saw some police officers in the main hallway so I sneakily went inside the bathroom so they wouldn't notice me. "Ms, Ma'am" I turn around hoping for it to not be a cop or something. "We want to ask you some questions about the incident from yesterday, would you happen to know what happened?" He takes out a pen and a little notebook, I shake my head as a no and say "I wasn't here yesterday" then I leave to go back to the classroom.

School has become a place that haunts me and forever will. I became the most liked girl in school to the most hated one. Why can't I just go back in time and never fought with Louis?! I don't even know if I like him anymore but I still think I do. I still can't accept the fact that he has betrayed me, the one whose known me longer and better. I guess the only option I have is to accept what the letter says.

I all of a sudden hear a small knock from the front main door, I then quickly get up from bed and go to open it and see no one, I slowly look down and see an envelope... again. What the fuck is up with all these creepy envelopes?! Can't they tell me all of this in front of my face?! They're such a fucking pu$$y, they can't even tell me all of this to me... a freaking girl. I grab the envelope and shut the door behind me. I go towards the living room, meanwhile reading the letter.

Dear Keira,

I know you have torn apart the first letter and burnt the previous one in school. Since you haven't been accepting and following the rules I have the sayings that you have to say to enter death, with this letter you are always welcome. With in 2 hours, if you haven't already done it I'll gladly just do it for you.

Sincerely, Death

I open the whole envelope and a piece of paper falls out, out of curiosity I read it out loud. In the middle of reading it my eyes widen, I realize this was the saying, I couldn't stop reading it, it was like my lips were doing it on its own. I began crying while still reading.

"I am saying this with all means, I can't hold myself back anymore. I'm tired of living this non meaningful life. I summon myself to a whole different world. Somewhere where it doesn't matter what I do or how I'll live. I let the spirits inside of my soul to bring me to hell and death, where I can peacefully be."

I could feel my eyes burning and my head pounding. My vision was getting blurry, my mouth felt soaked, my lips kept moving saying down sort of Latin words? I couldn't take it, i wanted to scream but couldn't take control of my own body. I want to end it... but how?
