Today was a normal day. I woke up, took a shower, got dressed, did my makeup, and then went to school. I only feel safe when I'm around my friends. My best friends, Chris and Nicole. They were always there for me when i needed them. But, today Nicole wasn't in school. Where was she? Was she sick? I saw Chris and asked him if he heard from Nicole. He said yes and that she said she wasn't feeling well. This made me suspicious. Nicole is always in school even if she is sick.

All day Chris has been acting funny. He never acts this way. First he knocked down a 7th grader in the hall. Then he started swearing out of nowhere and got sent to the office. When I went to ask him what was wrong he pushed me and told me that it wasn't any of my business and to go away. What was wrong with him? Why was he acting this way?

Despite all of the stuff that was going on I still had volleyball practice. I missed 60% of the balls that were passed to me and I couldn't even serve the ball over the net. Everyone was asking me what was wrong. I told them that I was just having an off day. They told me that everyone has there bad days and then practice was over.

I walked home after practice, it was five and I was really tired. I was bored and wanted to call Nicole and telll her about the kind of day that I had. But when I called, her mom answered and said that wasn't home. "Where is she?" I asked. "She's at Chris's house". She said. "Thank you"

"You're welcome"

"Bye"

"Bye"

Why was she at Chris's house when she was sick? I called her cell phone and I got the answering machine. I called Chris's house and nobody answered. Where were they and why weren't they answering there phones? These were important questions too be answered.
