Darlene was a broken teenage girl. Her parents died when she was only 5 and her adoptive parents are far from loving. She has no one except her best-friend Lucas, who she has been best-friends since 1st grade and secretly in love with since 4th. One day when she goes to his house she finds him lying in his bath with bloody water surrounding him and deep cuts on his wrists. She finds a book on the bathroom counter with the words "Dear, Darlene" on the front. When she opens it she finds writing dating back to 4th grade.
