Chapter 17—A.F.

{ a u t u m n }

          I was ready to kill myself.

          On a regular basis, I was okay with school. Sure, I didn’t like waking up at the crack of dawn to get ready for it, but I dealt with it. But when January rolled around, I knew I was getting ready to shoot myself in the face because January meant midterm exams, which meant relentless studies and no social activity whatsoever. Now, for the past three years, I’ve studied my ass off for exams and always stressed, but at the end I would always pass with flying colors. Yet I couldn’t help but freak out over all of the information I needed to remember.

          English was easy, as was chemistry and all of my other classes. But math was the one subject I had the most trouble on, because no matter how hard I tried, I sucked ass at taking math tests. I would know the information, but come the time to take the test, my mind would completely go blank and I’d flunk the test. It sucked, and thankfully my parents were sympathetic about it—which I was so grateful for, because I knew not a lot of parents are that way—but I still hated failing. I needed to pass the math midterm—and not with just a seventy-five.

          So here I was; sitting on my bed with my laptop in front of me, with a window of some math tutoring website opened as it explained to me how to use the quadratic formula. I couldn’t help but groan—when the fuck was I going to need this in life? I wanted to be a freaking journalist, not a mathematician!

          As I sulked over the math tutoring video, my phone vibrated next to me on the bed, and I couldn’t help but smile at whom I had received a text from.
