When something happens, there is a ripple effect. It expands and grows even as you shut your eyes and try not to think of it. Things got out of control as soon as they started, I didn't even have time to adapt. Not everything you know is how it seems. The scary monster you see is just a coat hanging off a chair. The loud noises that make you tremble at night is just a branch hitting the glass. 

Things happen and it might not have been like you think. I never wanted anything like this to happen the way it did to me. It didn't only bring my self esteem and emotional sanity down but  it also affected those around me. All my friends, all their thoughts, our interactions. Everything. 

Not only is this something to clear the air, but in a sense it's an apology. I'm sorry to everyone I affected. I'm sorry things ended the way they did. I'm sorry, I hope you all do so much better as the thought of me slowly disappears from your mind. I'm so sorry.

37 parts Complete

Raven Collins has an enemy: her best friend's twin brother. The only problem? That very same twin brother blames Raven for his twin's death, as well as the rest of her town. While she struggles to uncover the truth surrounding Adam's mysterious drowning, she also has to fend off budding feelings for her high school tormentor, but when he decides to join her in the hunt for answers, their connection becomes all the more real. While the romantic lines become blurred and they are faced with more questions than answers, can Raven control her heart long enough to find out the truth of what really happened to her best friend, or will she be consumed with the undercurrent that threatens to drag her, and everyone else, down right along with her drowned best friend? Trigger Warning: mild language, mild sexual content.
