I was drowsy. I couldn't move. My stomach killed me and my chest started hurting. I honestly didn't remember a lot of things besides trying to end my life. the last thing I remembered was going ballistic in the girl's bathroom: SCREAMING, CRYING, and Throwing things...then next everything turned into darkness.

I opened my eyes wide and remembered that I was in a hospital room. My bed was levitated to help me sit up and I made eye contact with the nurse. I looked to my left side and saw my mom and my uncle Varnell.  To the right, was my sisters and brother. I couldn't say a word, instead, I avoided communication with them.

"Are you ok sweetie?' asked Mom

"I-I guess s-sooo" 

"Honey, what happened? What did you try to do?" asked Uncle Varnell weeping

'RaeRae, are feeling better?' asked Dione

"A janitor at school found you unresponsive in the bathroom, what happened? Did someone hit you?' asked Jillian

"Did you get hit in the head?" asked Jamel 

Before I could mutter a word, Matthew and few of my girlfriends came rushing in; relieved that I was ok. They all began talking at the same time telling me and asking me "So happy you're alright", "WHAT HAPPENED!!" etc.

My mother calmed them down and told them not to pressure me and then the doctor came in with the results. He politely asked for her to step outside.

"Mrs. Beckwith, I have your daughters results," said the doctor

"Well, what happened," asked Mom

"Apparently your daughter was little dehydrated and we some pills inside her stomach...Ibuprofen  to be exact"

"IBUPROFEN??" said Mom shockingly

"Yes Madame, around 600-800mg to be precise, it's a good thing the janitor and administration found her just in time, otherwise it would've been too late. " said the doctor

"We are going to run a few more tests to make sure she's stable. Her vitals are strong, her heart is beating normally, Vitamin and Mineral levels are fine" said the doctor 

"Thank You," said Mom

After the doctor left, my mom, sobbing her eyes out, calmly asked me the question that I confessed to answering, I'd never forget the sad look in her eyes 

"Rae, did you...did you try to kill yourself? Please tell me...tell us" she said with pleading eyes

I looked around at everyone who was sad and crying. I made eye contact with my mom and finally confessed

"Y-Yes Mama, I-I did," I said weeping, and that was only the beginning


A/N: When I confessed, I didn't want to live myself. I personally thought all the girls would've been happy if I was gone. The seventh-grade was an absolute nightmare. I didn't want to go back to school, I wanted to transfer, heck be homeschooled. I wanted to do whatever it took to get away from all the torment. I didn't want to go back no matter what. :(
