*Sawyer's pov*

I woke up and saw the tapes beside me, I opened them, and under them was a note-
From Sophie Ferguson

I was shocked, was it really Sophie, the one who had committed suicide, I rechecked the note, yes it was, I didn't know how to react, but first I had to grab myself a Walkman to listen to the tape, I quickly ran down to Emilly's and rang her doorbell, she opened the door,

 "Hey," I said, 

"Hi Sawyer, need help with maths?" She said raising her eyebrows, as I always visit her for clear doubts about my homework

  "I want to borrow your walkman for a couple of days while going home from school, you play your mom's vintage songs, on it, the same one," I said in a hurry

 "Sawyer, calm down, man chill why are you in a hurry, I will give you my Walkman, but first I think you need water", she said pulling me inside her house and heading towards the kitchen for  water."It's fine, just give the walkman" I said wiping the sweat from my forehead, after a few minutes she came with a glass of water and her walkman, 

"Here, drink some water, and don't worry, you can keep the walkman as long as you want," She said smiling, but I just took two sips of water and the walkman, thanked her, and went back home.

"Where did you go," asked Pandora in astonishment "Oh to Emilly's, I had a doubt in maths" I blurted, I  did not feel like telling her the truth as she would ask me plenty of questions about it.

I walked to my room and picked out the first tape, It had a label on it- TAPE 1 written with black nail polish, I inserted it into my Walkman, put on my yellow headphones, and pressed play-

NOTE- Whatever Sophie is speaking, will be typed in Italics and whatever Sawyer is speaking or thinking will be typed in normal font.

Hello Dearies, Sophie here, not missing me are you? or have you already forgotten me? So whoever has got these tapes, are the perpetrators and a few of them are people whom I want to let know, why I took this decision to end my life. In simple language, it is the story of my life, hah!

I pressed pause, oh my god it was really Sophie my classmate and crush, her voice sprang into my ears, I was so puzzled at this, or was this some kind of prank from a friend? and if this is not a prank, am I the perpetrator, or just the innocent one who got the tapes? My brain forced me to listen further and I pressed play

Now the question arises- Why did Sophie send these tapes, she is no more, what should we do listening to a dead girl talk, right? Wrong!  this is not a joke or a lame talk, it's the reason why I ended my life, my dearies, ready to know what you did to me?  good. Let's start, 

I pressed pause, I needed to calm myself and digest all this, I gulped a heavy lump in my throat and pressed play. 

 now one more question arises in one's mind- What to do when you complete all these tapes thingy? I will tell you. Once you finish everything, you will be passing on the tapes, to any freshman student from our school in our batch, remember, this is not a joke, it's serious, so without further ado let's start, 

oh wait, one more thing- There will be some unanswered questions, please fill in the dots, and find the answer for yourself, will you? Also, there are some people who are not my perpetrators but my loved ones whom I shouldn't be leaving curious so yeah. The perpetrators will learn from their mistakes whereas my dear ones will just not mourn me anymore because they will know the reason for me just exiting this deadly world without even informing them Just gone-

 Like Whoosh. Haha.  Me making that sound is funny  or maybe it is just me thinking it is funny,

So without any further delay-
