The Invisible Girl

11

I couldn't stand it anymore.

I didn't understand why I was alive and why I had to mess with Madelyn.

As I stood in the corridor on the fourth floor of the school building, I felt the urge to jump right there. It was like I finally understood what Yvette was thinking before she committed suicide.

It was too painful. Every minute and every second was torture.

Elva pulled me back and said, "Vera, don't do anything stupid!"

I laughed bitterly and said, "I won't be impulsive."

I didn't have the courage.

I didn't dare to do whatever it took to get back at Madelyn and jump off the building.

I was afraid of pain and afraid of my nude photos being leaked. Moreover, I was afraid that my mother would criticize me and call me a troublemaker. Like Yvette and the others, I didn't even have the courage to fall out with Madelyn.

But I didn't understand. Was it so difficult for the powerless to live?

Elva gripped my hand tightly. She grabbed me so hard that my hand almost hurt.
