"So tell me love.. how'd you really end up here?" His left shoulder slightly touching my right shoulder as we're sat side by side. We both slouch since the benches didn't have a back support and just stare straight ahead at the stilled cherry blosso...

"Danielle, don't be late on your first day. Remember you're walking to school." I hear a stern voice, waking me up from my not so comfortable slumber.
Ever since I can remember, i've never been able to sleep properly.
It felt like I had barely fallen asleep thirty minutes ago, but that's usually how it feels when you have trouble falling asleep on a regular basis. Last night, I fell asleep at three in the morning and three hours later, here I am having to go to school running on only those three hours of sleep.
Opening my eyes slightly, the first thing my eyes see is the clock on my bedside table showcasing the current time.

It's six in the morning, but darkness still consumes my room. For awhile now, that's all my fucking life has seemed to revolve around.
Darkness.
Pitch black darkness.
I slowly look over to Aunt Beth who's standing impatiently with crossed arms, a few meters away on the opposite side of the doorway. Then I return my emotionless stare towards the clock.

"Danielle, I get it. This is very difficult for you, but please get up and at least try getting ready for your first day." She carries on talking, annoyance laced within her tone of voice, as I keep my expressionless stare at the clock.
But you don't fucking get it. You don't even fucking want me here. Not alive nor in your home.
I roll my eyes, pulling the covers off of me without saying a word, proceeding to the bathroom to get ready as she turns to go back downstairs.
