Dear Diary,
I couldn't do it.

After gaining everyone's attention during lunch today I couldn't do it. I was weak.

The way they stared at me... I didn't want to burden them. It sounds like an excuse but it was true.

I didn't have the courage. I didn't have the courage to utter the words. I didn't have the courage to tell them I was dying and I didn't have the courage to see the change in their eyes.

They asked me what I wanted to say... I told them it was nothing. They laughed, calling me silly before turning away and continued talking.

I wanted to cry. It seems like that's all I've been wanting to do lately.

I know I had to do this. But I just couldn't. Not yet anyway.

Just a little bit more time. One more week and I promise I will tell them.

It was time to face reality anyway.

Love,
Annabel
