I sat on a cold park bench, staring out at the full moon.  The events of the day spun in my head, a migraine starting above my eyebrows.  The usual names and beatings from the kids at school, then coming home to more of it from my siblings and no parents here to say anything.

Like they would anyway.

Then my "friends" posted pictures of them at a party I wasn't invited to.  Again.  My brother almost broke my phone and wrist, trying to get me out of the bathroom and throwing me on the ground.

I'm just done.

Soon enough, the thoughts started returning . . .

"No one would miss you."

"You're on your own, anyway. Just do it already."

I glanced over to the bridge, standing tall and dark over the cold, rushing water below.  It was at least fifty feet above the ground.  It would be done fast and easy.

No! I scolded myself, I have to get through this.  If not for me, for my best friend. The one person who has stuck with me through everything.  Even when she was meant to go, she promised to stay with me no matter what.  I couldn't do that to her.

I sighed and returned my eyes to the stars.  One seemed to shine brighter than the others. Second star to the right of the moon.  It wasn't a planet, there were no changing colors.  It was just brighter, shinier. It made me wonder what my life would be like if I wasn't hated by every living thing.

If only there was a place that was like that.

I believed there was.

Then everything was black.
