to evangeline,

    your boyfriend tried to harass beth. i intervened and now he's in the hospital and i'm suspended for a week. beth was insistent that she could handle herself and just when i let my guard down, that happened. i'm fine, he didn't get to land much hits on me, but the times he did hit me hurt like hell. i'm getting rusty. i should start going back to the gym. you told me to stop because when i'm there other girls ogled me. beth's gonna go with me to the gym! something you never liked to do. she also said she wants me to teach her self defense. if only i could use my so called strength against my father...
    i think i like beth. i don't love her. i like her. when i'm with her i feel different. i feel happy -- an emotion that's so foreign to me. she's kind and she's there for me. i like talking to her, i like studying with her, i just like being around her in general. this has me wondering if i still love you. did i like you like how i like beth? or did i fool myself into thinking i like you because i'm pathetic?

love,
hayden.
