1# Rolling Girl (Hatsune Miku)

We're starting with a sad one, and there is a TRIGGER WARNING for implied suicide.

I'm in the school bathroom again. I look into the mirror after crying great ugly tears for the past 5 minutes.

Everyday it's the same thing.
Why won't they leave me alone?

I might not be the prettiest girl in school, I may not have the most friends, I may not have designer clothes or a perfect body...

But why does that matter?
It's what's on the inside that counts right?

Ha, who am I kidding? Is that even true? I mean, they all hate me. I'm the odd kid in class, the black sheep of the group. They bully me because I'm... Different.

What's wrong with me?

I grip the tie around my neck. If I tightened it around my neck until I couldn't breath, would it help? I hear someone speak to me, but I don't know who.

"One more time? Stop it’s fine.”
“Aren't you getting tired of doing this?”

It's true.
I am tired of doing this. Tired of faking a smile, tired of pretending I'm OK.

I can't do it anymore.
I pull my school tie around my neck, after a while, I feel myself choking. Everything goes fuzzy, I feel numb. Everything hurts. My breaths come out in short pants.

I can't stop.

I continue until I can't feel anything, until my breath become less and less frequent.

And then it's done.

If you read up until the end, I have a small favour to ask you. I hate when people romanticise mental illnesses, so if this is a poor depiction please let me know hiw to make it better and I will try. Thanks for reading.
