The worst part of being an older sister is the guilt. When you figure out what happened and it settles into your head, the first thing you think of is "Why wasn't I there? Why did I let this happen?". Even though it isn't your fault. Even though you were sick and stayed at home. Even though you could blame your parents more than yourself... even though you know if you were there, it would've just been both of you. The looks the neighborhood kids and their parents give me makes me wish I was there. I would've rather been involved in a near-death experience than face unwanted memories everywhere I go. Suddenly, everything about her is resurfacing through forgotten 1st-grade friends and Facebook moms who thought she was a "well-rounded kid, gone too soon". Yes, I know she loved your dog. I remember how sweet she was to your kids, even though they would throw rocks at her when your back was turned. I don't care that she wanted to babysit your toddler, or paid for your oranges when you were at that one bodega. She's dead, and you stopping me on my way to the lake doesn't make me forget that. Thank you, but I'd like to return your pity.

This is a #TeenFictionAnotherYearShortStory entry. --- Believe me, when adulting takes place, you forget your naïve little side instantly and are ready to fit yourself in the big boots. But let's say, it's too soon for Olivia Dee. For her, graduation was a ceremony, a consummation of all the misery and guilt she had had to bear, of which none whispered-and she finally had the chance to leave it all behind. But the world's twisted, right? What if...I say, she has to relive all her past memories--that nasty first kiss, to be labelled a troublemaker, to be accused of things she could never imagine ever doing? Sadly, this is not her decision to make. A day after her graduation, she wakes up to face her senior year again. She knows that she had completed her education, she spends hours yelling about it on everyone's face. But at the end, she has to go to college again with one question--how does she even return back in time? But this time, all she has to do is grapple with a recurring dream, try to eliminate all the dark spots in her senior year and find out the reason of this travel back in time. Yet one thing's for sure, she hasn't travelled back in time. I give you my word. I know. There are numerous black-outs, sudden falls, chills, drama and a whole different system of cheating, drugs, revenge and a famous Queen sister, who is, mysteriously, now not famous at all. Watch her swim and drown, as she struggles between her reality and to keep up with her past struggles again, literally. Meanwhile, there's one context she never understands: Death undoes anything. *** Credit to @cattown_graphics She is a real darling, and managed to present me this cover at a very short notice. I'm so grateful!
