I was Mattia's best friend for over a year, the only difference was that I lived in South London; home to drugs, gangs and stabbings. I decided to run away from London to New Jersey with my best friend who was coincidentally best friends with Alejan...
I had no energy to continue the school day so I went back into my room to catch some energy. I was physically and mentally drained from crying so I got changed into my pyjamas and got into bed.

I had never cried so much in my life, I felt it was almost a sense of humanity for me; I used be so numb because I kept everything to myself and that crying was so abnormal to me but I low-key enjoyed the feeling.

Kairi: Where'd you go?
You: Into my room, why?
Kairi: Well the whole school saw what happened in the cafeteria, rumours are going round saying that it had something to do with Mattia...
You: Nah he was the only person who came up to me, I'm all good now✌🏽
Kairi: Good, good
I put down my phone and walk to my suitcase to grab a face mask, I applied it on my T- zone and wrapped myself back into my blanket. The 10 minutes passed and I peeled the face mask off and waited for the school bell to ring for the end of the day. I occupied myself by watching 'Night School' on my phone to pass the time. I was in the middle of the movie when I was messaged by Austin.

Austin: You up for today bae?
You: Yeah I've got some venting to do so I'll be there
Austin: See you at 3:30 then🤍
You: Yessir💜
It was pretty boring being on my own since I was able to calm myself down and stop crying after a few minutes but if I went back to my class I would raise hella suspicion. The bell rang much earlier than I thought and I heard the flood of students walk past, screaming and making as much noise as possible; the handle on my door started to shake indicating that someone was there, I opened the door to let Mattia in.
Mattia: How you feelin?
You: Good
Mattia: You got a bit of face mask on you...
He said peeling it off.
You: I have work today so I need to get changed
I get up and walk towards my suitcase to pick out an outfit, I don't wear anything special since I'd be changing into my work clothes anyway. I start to take off my clothes, feeling Mattia's eyes on my body, slowly looking up and down.
