In this story, im going to change peoples names to protect their privacy. This year has been extremely rough, not just for me but for all my friends & family. I'm a sophomore in high school. It all started on January 25th. I walked into school, my bongo in hand, excited to be jamming with my friend N during lunch & then performing at a sweet 16 that Friday night. But something seemed up, & the halls were especially quiet. I saw my friend N in the hall, & she said to me "S, do you know?" & I said "Know what?" She looked at me with tear stained eyes. "They are saying that T died last night in the hospital because a rare case if the flu." I looked at her. It was a joke. It was some sick joke. N & I walked to my locker where my boyfriend & best guy friend were. By the look in their eyes it was true. But how did I not know? My childhood friend, I had known him since I could remember knowing anyone & he was gone now, & so unexpected & it was so hard to believe. I called my house before the recorded school message could tell them, because they had known J too for his entire life. I was sobbing when I called them. & my little brother S looked up to him so much. Sorry Im really bad at describing this but my message is getting really long & I have to sum it up. I just can't get over the fact that he's gone, & he was only 16 years old for nine days. I miss him so incredibly much, he always had a way of bringing a smile to your face, no matter what. He always used to remind me of how beautiful I was & that he loved me. I just need to write this all down because the horribleness doesn't end there.
About a month later, a 12 year old boy in our community died a few days later from having severe burns from a house fire. 12 years old?! Why?! But it doesn't end there.
About a month after that, my boyfriend of 2 1/2 years broke up with me because he wanted to be with other girls. I was upset, but was happy the relationship ended because it was very toxic. A few days later my best guy friend J started to make his feelings known that he liked me, but he had a girlfriend who was psycho & controlled him.
He kissed me at the roller rink about two weeks after P broke up with me & promised he'd be with me & that he'd break up with L. He broke up with her that weekend then he acted like my boyfriend & then got back together with her that Monday night, claiming he basically lied about his feelings towards me. Ugh.
I'm sorry this is so long I just needed to vent. Just this past Friday another kid at my high school committed suicide. Why is there so much death?
