Meet Athena Brooks.
She's the easiest person to talk to. She's literally friends with everyone but has 2 special friends that has been there since birth. She has a smile that never fades - well, that's her little facade that she puts up with for the public to see.
Right when she closes her front door everyday, the mask was completely off. She didn't have to worry about anyone seeing her like that. No one was home. Except for her brother that was in the basement. Her brother whom she has no relationship with whatsoever. Her parents? Workaholics.
Before it was her grandma that was always there for her. But after a tragic, she was gone.
Just. Like. That.
She was the only person who kept Athena sane.
Now that she's gone, how will Athena take it? She tries to commit suicide. Key word : Tried
She was interrupted by an unexpected robbery.
The robbers? The 2 baddest boys whom she shares a neighborhood with.
What happens next when they both barge into the bathroom to find Athena's unconscious body?

Secret Mind ✓
"She's right! She's right! I don't cut in the right spot." My hold tightens on my wrist. The red blood oozes out of my wrist. I slide up and grab my bag and run out of the bathroom. I don't care if people can see the blood I just want to get out. I race for the doors and shove through people. I earn a lot of glares and glances that read "weirdo." I ignore and push. I run to my house and lock myself in my bathroom. I don't bother closing the front door cause I don't care if people come in to kill me. I grab my razor and cut deep cuts into my arm and wrists falling into a pool of my own blood. • • • Evangeline has a great life. Friends? Check! Good grades? Check! Loving family? Check!

" You only truly miss someone when they are gone. And sometimes, it's hard to let go. But you have to let him go..." It is hard when your loved one is gone. But for Riley, it was something different. In a sick sort of way, she loved it-reminiscing about Leo, literally drowning in the memories of him. And it isn't long till Riley does drown herself among those gray memories, shutting and shunning the world forever, in a place too far to reach. She is already so gone, that every one of her friends and family are very close to giving up, and on each tick of the clock Riley is close to letting go. Will a curious stranger's words save her, or will Riley try to save herself? *If you read the summary, and decided that it is some sort of typical clichè , I'd like to tell you that this is NOT a cliche 'damsel-in-distress-saved-by-a-knight-in-shining-armour' story at all. You won't find anything such as that, as the tags suggests too. But yes, there will be few moments of cliche.* •Warning• : Things about suicide, self-harm, depression; contains kissing and cuss words-so read at your own risk And also, even though it's edited, it still can have few mistakes.
