*buzz buzz*
the alarm clock rings. ‘’Anna wake up!
‘’ my mother yelled from downstairs but I
ignore her and continue sleeping. ‘’Anna , did
you not hear me? GET UP!’’ ‘’ok im
up , im up ‘’ I said. It’s the first day of school ,
I’m entering 8th grade, and I gotta admit I’m
really nervous. I never thought I’d feel this way, I
mean every year it’s the same thing but I had a
really strange feeling about this year. As I come down the
stairs I see my dad drinking his coffee and reading his
newspaper, my mom is making breakfast. Its weird seeing
them so quiet. ‘’sweetie would you like some
toast? ‘’ ‘’ we got eggs, bacon,
ham , what would you like to have?’’ mom said.
‘’ uh , I’m not hungry’’ I
replied . ‘’Not hungry?’’ you
can’t go to school on an empty stomach’’
‘’ I guess I’ll have some
cereal’’ ‘’ you need to start
eating better , that’s not healthy for
you.’’ ‘’yeah
whatever’’ I got in the car, my dad was driving
me to school, we were getting closer to school. Then we
pulled off. ‘’I’ll be here at 3:30
probably , if you don’t see me, go home
walking’’ ‘’ k later.
‘’ I said as I kissed him on the cheek and got
out of the car. ‘’ugh , it was SO hot!
‘’ I could feel my sweat through my
clothes. And if that wasn’t bad enough my shirt was
black, so it was even
hotter!’’ ‘’ there you
are!’’ I yelled across the campus to my friend
Liz. ‘’hey I missed you dork! ‘’I
missed you too!’’ we had a 30 second hug, ahh
we were besties. ‘’ so how was this
morning’’ ? liz said. ‘’ well you
know , just like any other ordinary morning.’’
‘’ really, well that’s good I
guess.’’ ‘’well this summer was
great ugh why did it have to end?’’ I
said. ‘’ I know
right!’’ liz said. Well that day ended, it was a pretty
good day at school, its amazing how I can be happy for 6
hours, then come home wake up from my dream and live a
nightmare. *knock knock* dad opened the door. I
had to walk today , he didn’t pick me up, as always
he never kept his promises. Well I got inside, got dressed
into my pj’s , ate and then went to watch some TV, as
I was about to turn it on I heard my parents screaming
again. Everyday was a nightmare in that house.
‘’please , mom dad , stop ‘’ they
never listened. They never
cared… I was sick and tired of always
living like this, I couldn’t take it anymore. Then
suddenly, I did the craziest thing ever, I promised myself
I wouldn’t do it again, but it was my only escape. I
ran upstairs, locked myself in my room, I broke down in
tears. ‘’WHY ME?’’ I questioned
myself. ‘’why doesn’t anyone like me? Why
can’t I be
perfect?’’ There’s a bathroom inside my
room. I opened the drawer filled with razors, blades,
scissors. I had this feeling I wanted it to go away. I
grabbed the sharpest blade there was. I was crying so much
I felt like I was running out of tears, but not of pain.
Slowly , I ran the blade through my right arm first, then
my left and ended with 27 cuts both arms. ‘’ Oh
I feel lightheaded , I’m so dizzy’’ I saw
everything blurry .. crazy thoughts went through my head,
all because I cut myself. I was hallucinating , I
didn’t feel good at all. ‘’ what
have I done?’’ I thought. I went too deep this
time. I saw everything black , my last words repeated
‘’what have I done’’
‘’what have I done’’ as slowly
everything faded away and I passed out.
