Hey guys here's a new story. I'm deleting the other one because let's be honest, it sucked! So I hope you like it. 3
A silent tear rolls down my check and onto the picture frame of the only person I'm sure I loved other than Prim. I quickly stand up from my bed and make my way over to my mahogany dresser to place the picture of my father back in its place of honor.
I go into my bathroom and take a warm shower letting the remains from my tears wash away under the warm rainfall. I silently wash myself and then step out.
I go to stand in front of my closet wondering what I should wear today. I don't even know why I try. I'm still going to get mean comments thrown at me even if I dressed like a Victoria Secret model. I sigh and then settle for a plain black tang top with a black hoodie my black skinny jeans and my black combat boots.
I quickly brush through my hair and then braid it to the side. I look at myself in the mirror. look like shit. I guess what everyone says is true. I don't even know why I'm still here. I mean sure I cut but it just doesn't take away much of the edge.
I've had more suicidal thoughts than I can count on two hands, but I've never acted on them. If I did what would happen to Prim? She's the only reason why I'm still here. She's the only one that cares about me. I put on my back pack and then head downstairs.i
"Good Morning little duck."
"Good morning Katniss! Effie said to mind your manners and that she left a cheese bun for you in the oven." I nodded my head and went over to the oven to retrieve the disgusting store-bought cheesebun that she left for me.
I give Prim a kiss on her forehead and then grabbed my car keys and headed for school. As I drove to school, like every other morning, I tried to think of what I could've done to deserve this kind of torture. It all started in Madison Middle School.
Glimmer Ryan and I were the best of friends. I don't exactly know what happened but she just abandoned me for a girl named Clove and together that's when they started to bully me. At first I didn't really pay it much attention because I thought that it was just Glimmer being mad at me for something that I would find out about later. Little did I know it would only get worse.
Throughout the entire junior and half of senior they managed to get me to crack. I used to live by a saying, 'No one can make you feel inferior without your consent'. They started calling me names like, slut, bitch, and whore, and they started spreading nasty rumors about me.
I have not one friend that I can talk to. There is this girl named Madge who is kind enough to sit with me at least twice a month, but even she doesn't stay too long. She's still the only person who seems to not be repulsed by the mere thought of my name. I sigh as I pull into the school parking lot. I quickly step out of my car and attempt to walk into the school unnoticed, but of course Glimmer and her band of plastic had to come along and ruin that plan. "Hey little bitch," she said throwing me into a locker.
I wince as my shoulder came in contact with the hard metal of the lock.I swore to myself that one day I would break the hold that Glimmer had on me and stand up for myself, but I can't. The words just hit me like a ton of bricks no, and there's nothing I can do.
"Why are you still here? Didn't I ask you to kindly go kill yourself?," Glimmer said in a sickly sweet voice as her back up barbies laughed. "Believe me, I've tried," I mumbled. She pushes me harder into the locker."What was that!?" I quickly shake my head and keep my eyes on my shoes to avoid eye contact. I could totally take Glimmer if I wanted to- my dad taught me how to fight when he was still alive- hut I just don't want to cause any more problems. The bell rings for us to go to homeroom.
Glimmer pushes me to the floor. "Stay out of my way Katpiss,"she sneers, "and remember that no one likes a freak." She throws a wink over her shoulder and then she disappears around the hallway.
