The Day I found it

This isn't going to be the story you think this is gonna be. This isn't about a girl who gets the guy. Or the girl who discovers her true self. I am just going to tell my story. All of it. Even the parts that no one wants to know about and the mistakes I have made along the way. Let's start the day of.


School was just starting back up again and I slept in. I looked over at my clock saw that it wasn't making any noise. I slowly came to realize that the beeping sound I was hearing was coming from the bus. I hoped out of bed threw on my shoes and grabbed my backpack as I ran to my sisters room. "Wake up, we have to go. Now!" I ran to the door and went outside and came right up to the bus driver. I mumbled that my sister was coming as I went to my usual seat in the middle section of the bus.

I don't sit at the back anymore. The younger kids sit back there and they seem to think doing stupid things that could kill them is fun. I saw my sister step in the bus and we made eye contact. We do this so she knows where I am sitting. When we arrive at school me and my sister get off the bus and head in the opposite direction. My sister is in middle school. I am in high school. 

As I walk over to my usual friends(the ones that are always here early) I just step into the circle and get into the groove that they are all in. Once the teachers open the door we all walk in, middle and high school students. Then I move from that group of friends to the other. As I sit at their table we wait for the announcements. Pretty boring huh? Well this is every day for me. Do I really care what new Dungeons and dragons thing Biden got that day? No. Do I want to hear about Ms. Roberts talk about goals and her diet? No. But every day I go and every day passes like a blur all blending together.

Even when Jax decides to come to school. Her name is Jacqueline, but she likes Jax. She is also my best friend. On the first day of freshman year we were both awkwardly standing around until I went up to her and basically said, "So you new?" she said yes, "cool me too. We should hang out at lunch." And so yeah now as Juniors we are inseparable. People come up to both of us and ask where the other is. Like we have a clue!(And yet we always know)

Now that you are basically all caught up with how my life was going we can skip to the part that changed me, and took all everything I thought was good in the world from me.

I was about to get on the bus to go home when I spotted an envelope. It was a bright color and that was the only reason I even looked at it. I stepped off the bus and walked over to it. As I was walking toward it, I kept looking around to see if anyone was looking at me or for the envelope. When I didn't see anyone I quickly snatched it up and walked over to the side of the bus where no one can see me. It looks fairly nice, almost as if it was carefully sat on the floor.

I looked for a name, or return address. Anything that would suggest it belonged to anyone. When I found nothing I hesitantly opened it, cursing myself for not resisting the urge to be nosy. I looked inside and saw a small piece of paper sitting inside. I grabbed it out of the envelope and read the words on the front.

"Open Me." I read aloud, to myself.

I opened it just wanting to know what it said. 

Cassandra(me!),

                             I know what you did. Unless you want everyone else to know, let's play a game.(This creepy stuff is some bullshit)

                                                                                                                                                                -New friend(who?)

In a panic I throw the note in my bag and get on the bus. I sit by myself instead of my sister thinking to myself, no one could have known about this. The only other person who knows has been dead for over a year!

Well, that's how it started. Anyways, shall we continue?
