I got my breakfast as usual but 707 wasn't around. I guess I was late or something. I shoved the food down my throat and ran to school, trying to find 707. Why did she go without me? That didn't seem normal of her. I kept thinking of possible explanations. I got there and of course got picked on from one kid and another. This time, I didn't listen. I was just trying to find 707. I kept running around corners and looking every direction.

Eventually, I found 707. She was looking at the ground, having an angry look. Did I do something? I approached without thinking and began to say hi. Before I could, she said, "Don't talk to me if that's what you we're about to do."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"I know what you did. Admit it so this conversation can end. If it even was."

"What did I do?"

"Don't play dumb. You hurt some innocent kids, did you!?" She turns to me and yells.

"I- Why would I-...." I couldn't think of anything to say. She was mad at me for something I didn't do.

"..." She waited for me to respond. "You did, didn't you!" She screams louder. It got a few kids attention. Was she doing this on purpose? Maybe she was testing me?

 Was she doing this on purpose? Maybe she was testing me?

"N-NO- I-I-....." I turned more and more red by the second. This was really bad of me to forget my words.

"You know what?" She gets closer to me and stares. She raises her hand up and slaps me. The pain was the worst I ever experienced. Not just physically. I got on my knees and put one hand on the slap mark. "We're done. I don't want to see you ever again!" She was upset like me, only anger was taking her away.
"W-wait....don't......" She ran away before I coukd finish. She left me with a bunch of kids looking at me. I broke...I could feel myself change.

"Wow, you made a girl cry. What's wrong with you?" They teased. "Maybe you should go cry to your mommy, as if she'll do anything. She would just punish you for hurting people. Maybe even spank you. That would teach you a lesson!" A kid yelled. "Hey I got an idea, lets kick his butt instead!" I could hear 202 scream over the crowd, before cheering and hurting me. The pain was numb at this point. Even if it made me bleed, I didn't care.

I looked up from the crowds feet and see 707 watching me. I could tell it was hard for her to not smile. She turned around the corner and disappeared. Is it really over? Did I lose my only friend? Maybe closer?

...

Next Day, I stayed back with my parents. They didn't care anyways. When I looked in the mirror, my eyes were different. My colors switched. Now the darker shade was on the outside. Is that normal? I don't think so. Do I care? No...

I realized at that point, I was nothing to anyone. If they didn't care about me, then why should I take care of myself? Someday, I hope to get beaten up to death. I stopped talking to 707 and let the kids do whatever they wanted to me. They even tried cutting my hair to be very short.

This was just the beginning...
