I didn't go to school the whole week. I was still too sad about Dad, so I decided to just go to school next week. Mom also stayed home.
She cries every day, and it's starting to worry me.
I understand that she's sad. She's just lost her husband. I just hope she will stop crying soon. My mother is one of the people that when you see them cry, you just wanna sit down and cry with them.
--------------(T_T)-------------
I just got back to school. I was greeted by Jada and Jackson at my locker. They both threw a sympathetic smile my way. "Hey," Jackson said at the same time as Jada said, "Hello."
"Hi." Was my reply to both of them. I really didn't feel like talking right now. I was up all night. I couldn't fall asleep because I was crying. My whole family is a mess right now.
I speed walked down the hall to my next class. I didn't want to be late, especially on my first day back. I entered math class and everyone stared at me. I gave them glares and sat down.
I wish I hadn't gone to school today.
I wonder how Bernie is doing in school. Ugh. I hope she's not as miserable as me.
"Miss. Mackey?" I was pulled out of my thoughts.
"Yes Mrs. Williams?" I asked. I hoped I don't have to answer a question. I'm not what you would call a 'math genius'.
Of course I had bad luck.
"Please come up to the board and write the answer to this equation." I mentally groaned as I shuffled up to the board. Aren't the teachers supposed to go easy on me today? What's wrong with them?
I stared blankly at the board. Then I heard a voice. "The answer is 741 over 9." It said.
Thanks. I said in my head. I wrote that on the board, and Mrs. Williams gave me a smile.
"So you were paying attention." She said. I just nodded and sat back down.
I stared off into space for the rest of math class. Maybe that voice can help me with math tomorrow. I will name this voice... Morgan.

After going through two more classes, I went to lunch. I sat at my regular table and saw Jada and Jackson walk over to me. They sat down and smiled. I forced a smile back, and I started eating. That's when I heard "You eat like a pig." That made me mad.
Forgetting that Jada and Jackson were there, I smacked my head repeatedly and screamed "Shut up!" in my head.
"What? I didnt say anything." Jada said. I said that out loud? Whoops.
"No I didn't mean you shut up... I meant..." I trailed off. I might as well tell them now, right?
"Well, I wasn't saying shut up to either of you."
I could tell that they were both silently telling me to continue.
I took a deep breath, "I was saying it to these voices I hear. Since my dad died, they keep talking to me. I know they're actually there and they won't shut up!" I exclaimed.
There was an uncomfortable silence at the table. It was killing me to have silence so I spoke, "You know I'm not crazy, right?" I asked.
Jada and Jackson looked at me. Then, Jada asked, "Have you told your mom about these voices?"
I shook my head and she nodded. "I think you should. She might help you."
I turned to face her completely and I looked into her eyes. "You believe me, right?"
I wasn't sure if she actually did. I looked at Jackson. He would understand.
They both were silent and I frowned. I threw away my lunch, got through the rest of the school day, and went home. I see Mom crying again on the couch and I sit down next to her. I give her a hug and head up to my room.
"Do we really have to go through this again?" Jim asks. I scowl. This guy needs to get a life and stop talking to me.
"They're my best friends. They will understand."
"I thought we had a deal." Jim's voice boomed. I flopped on the bed.
"Well some people you just can't keep secrets from. They deserve to know." I stated.
Then I asked, "Speaking of that, who are you again?" I hoped I would get an answer this time.
"If you can't keep us talking to you a secret, then why should I tell you who we are?" Jim asked. He made a good point.
"Whatever. Just stop fuck off." I start to drift off to sleep.
"Remember the deal. Bad things will happen if you don't." I heard right before I went to sleep.
