“School’s out you dummy!!” She says this while a big smile appears on her face as she looks down at me.

How? It’s been a whole hour. Who is this bitch anyway?! I don’t even know her… what is go-

“Anyways my name is Leah!” She interrupts me mid-thought and I frown.

I jump up and run. I look back at her for a moment whilst continuing to run and I see her looking a little disappointed and confused as I find my way to my mother’s car. For a moment I stopped, and fake smiled to myself. I’m not sure why, but I do. It’s not real, nothing is anymore.

“Hi baby!” My mother exclaims in joy.

“You’re cheery today…”

“I’m pregnant!”

“WHAT?!” I burst, my long dark brown hair flying into my face.

Just another reason… the thing is I have FIVE SIBLINGS ALREADY.

“MOM WHY!?”

“Why not baby?”

“…” I look at her as she innocently starts the car. I’m stunned…

The drive home afterward was VERY, awkward. I sat there stunned and thinking about my shitty life.

Finally, we were home, I went straight to my room.

“Ugly.” I look at myself in the mirror. Damn. This is so dumb. It’s like all the other girl stories. Well. This is the end not all endings are happy endings. I sat down on my bed and cut my arm.

This is the end. I’m done. I’ve tried too many times. I need to just end it now.

Knock, “Rae?”

I stand up startled. My back facing away from my mother. Blood slides down my arm. I turn around in horror.

“Mother, kill me.”

“HONEY! YOUR ARM!!” She looks at me in terror seeing the knife in my hand with blood dripping down the knife. “YOU’RE GOING TO THE HOSPITAL!”

I want this hell to end. Forever. I cannot bear it any longer.

The window!

I jump up and climb out the window.

I run.

I run as fast as I can.

Help.

I left the knife!

I panic. I realize my arm is burning. How far did I cut in?!

I run as fast as I can.

A cop car sits at the edge of the lake.

Perfect.

I ran around the lake as fast as possible.

“HEY!” The cop notices me.

I jump in the lake.

Die die die die die!

I can’t breathe anymore… it… hurts….

….

I woke up.

What?!

Is this the afterlife!?

Oh-

It’s the fucking hospital.

Fuck-

The cop!

“Yeah, she didn’t swallow much water thankful- SHE’S AWAKE!” A nurse talking to my mother holding a clipboard and pencil looks up in excitement. My mom with tears clearly falling from her face she lights up for a moment then looks away. “My name is Nurse Neami. The social worker should be in here in a while to discuss her transferring to a behavioral facility.”

“Okay.” My mom’s voice shakes.

I lay down and stared at the wall. I did. I remember the day I was born to this day. I remember every shitty second of my life and my last.

My own mother couldn’t even bear to look at my face, just like when she saw me the first few seconds of my life.

This is my second life. Satan sent me back to earth after I died in my first life.

Although, no one would ever believe me when I say this.
