So this is how it ends, this is how it began: Chapter 3: How could YOU understand?

That was the best 10 minutes I have ever had since the accident. This is why I couldn't help but smile a bit even as I sat in a chair.a chair in the principal's office. My mother had to come in, and she was due any minute now. So Mrs. Loraine was sitting in her chair, staring straight at me, a mixture of pity and anger could be seen on her face. I told her what happened, every detail. Including the one with pushing Beryl and everything. Beryl wasn't pressing charges; I think she was afraid I would beat her up if she did. That thought made me smirk. My mother walked in, and the talk began.I zoned out. ~~ I am sitting on my bed now, trying to recall everything that happened today. That Molly, she was really nice. I remember meeting her a couple times. She had been crying because her parents were getting a divorce, I was sympathetic. She was such a wonderful person. I sat up on my bed and pulled a piece of paper out of my right jean pocket. It had an address and phone number on it. It was Molly's, I felt like calling, you know to talk to her. But I can't just bring myself to openly admit Rei is gone. I see it as a vacation; only difference is I won't get to see her till I get to where she is.heaven.

I know Rei will wait for me, because for every day she has to wait, the longer I live. But I don't have real friends, I mean not like Rei. I think it would be rude to get a new best friend, ya know? I got up from my bed and walked to the door, opened it and went downstairs. My mom was in the kitchen, she handed me a container of mixed fruit, and then she said for me to be home no later than 11:00 pm. I still don't understand how moms know when you are gonna do something. So I thanked her, took the container, and led myself to the front door.and then I left.

I was walking towards the park when it happened. I know you should keep your eyes where you were going, but in the state I was in.well who wouldn't be thinking about things. So like the person I am I tripped on an empty can of soda, I fell backwards.into a GUY! I felt soooooo embarrassed, who wouldn't? I looked up into the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen! He smiled at me and spoke up. "Hi, my name is Darien. You ok? You know it would be wise to watch where you are walking. What if you were in the street when you fell? You could have died." I was shocked by the strangers concern, he looked about 21...22 maybe. He seemed nice and familiar.then it hit me. "I know you! You are that friend of Andrew's. If it wasn't for your fan club I would be able to go into the arcade and." I was interrupted by Darien "and play your Sailor V game without distractions so then you could get home in time for dinner." He smiled at me, and I couldn't help but feel happy in his presence. I smiled back, but then my grin vanished. My lip trembled and tears welled up in my eyes. I couldn't help it.I tried not to cry honest. "Oh Serena, what is wrong?" I looked at him in shock, I knew that he knew about Rei because I saw him on the scene of the crime, he had been in the car behind Rei and me. "I.can't talk about.you.you.you wouldn't understand." My words failed me and I felt warm arms hold me as Darien pulled me off the ground at sat me on a bench nearby. "Serena..." Darien started to speak up, but now it was my turn to interrupt him. "No Darien, you don't get it. I can't talk about it. I don't know how! I...I've never done it before." He looked into my eyes, and I thought he would push me into telling. But his response confused and shocked me. "Okay Serena. When you want to talk, and if you can't find someone who will listen.You can look me up, I will be in the phone book." With that he gave me a hug and I found myself hugging him back. "Thank you." I replied to him, but before I knew it he had turned and walked into the crowd filled with other people in a hurry to get somewhere.
