Audrey's POV
I Raced Out Of House To Beat Kelsi.
Today Mom Made A Decree. ' Whoever Reaches The School First For Every 5 Days Will Get Ten Extra Dollars'
So I Ran Away From Kelsi. Blame Me Not For I Need A Little Extra Allowance.
Kelsi Ended Up Beating Me Though, sigh. It's Those Extra Sports Clubs I Tell Ya.
We Entered The School But Not Before Passings Two Photo Frames, Flowers Resting In Front.
I Recognized The Person In The First . The Same Girl From A Week Ago. Her Name Was Annabelle Haley. And The Other; A Brunette Girl With Green Eyes According To The Picture, Isabella Williams.
I Took A Piece Of Paper From My Bag And Tore It Neatly.
"Sorry I Couldn't Save You. RIP Annabelle."
I Wrote On One Piece, Placing It On The Ginger Heads Semi-grave.
"RIP Isabella"
I Wrote On The Other. Placing It On Her Grave Also.
"Might Not Have Flowers But We Can Still Say Prayers."
Kelsi Came And Knelt Down Beside me.

What If I Hadn't Went For The Water? Would I Still Of Let Her Die? Is She Gonna Haunt Me? Why Couldn't I Have Joined The Track Team In 9th Grade? I Would've Been Faster. But I Also Wouldn't Be Able To Join The DDC.. That Would Take Up To Much Time.. Maybe If I'd-
"Davis!"
My Teacher Calls Out, While I,

Jumps Up Due To Shock.
"Pay Attention Please. "
She Says As She Shakes Her Head.
"Sorry Miss."
I Sit Back Down.

After Class I Had Lunch. A Regular Donut With Orange Cream And A Chocolate Milk. Wait Orange? That Reminds Me Of-
SWIPE
"Kelsi!"
I Shout At The Thief Who Stole My Donut.
"What? You Were Staring At It Like You Wanted To Fight It So I Fought It For You!"
She Maliciously Smiles.
"With Your Mouth?"
I Rhetorically Ask As I Take Up A Sandwich Instead.

What If I Had Been Friends With Her? Would I Had Known If She Was Gonna Do That? Would I Had Been Able To-
"Audrey?"
The Girl I Was Supposed To Be Helping Wakes Me From My Thoughts.
"Oh Yeah?"
I Ask.
"Are You Listening?"
"Yes I Am! Your Were Talking About How They Were Bullying You About Your Love For Animals. And What I Say To That Is That You Should Ignore Them. It's What You Love And That's All You Need."
I Lecture.
"It Was Actually My Love For Books.. But Still.... Maybe Your Right. Thank You!"
She Skips Off.
What Is Happening To Me?

Did President Alex Hear About It? Am I Gonna Get Demoted? Would I No-
"Audrey You Good?"
My Mom Asks Me, While I Continue To Spin My Fork In The Food.
"Yeah I'm Good. I'm Full So Good Night."
I Smile As I Get Up And Leave.
"But You Haven't Ate Anything.."
My Mother States But I Didn't Hear As I Was Long Gone.
