Day 2

The news has spread about my brother an these things go into my mind:

Why should I cry over him? Why should I lie, saying that i miss you? He's never been happy for me. After all he put me through, it's true he isn't the monster I knew.

Anyway everyone knows... Even Trent. Everyone looks at me and just sees negativity, they feel pity. But that's not all I am... I go to my locker and puts some books away. "Hey-" "I don't want pity right now... Please." I say as I turn around. "Oh, Trent " I say with a nervous look. "S-Sorry..." He says. "No it's fine..." I say. "Do you... maybe want to have lunch??" He asks. I pause for a moment. I look back up at him with a smile and say "Sure". "Great" he smiles. A millisecond passes and another stupid jock pushes him against a locker. I rush to him in concern. "Are you ok??" I ask. "I'm fine..." He looks a bit angry. "Here..." I say as I put out my hand to help him up. "Thanks..." He says. "I'll see you at lunch" I smile. "Yeah..." He smiles back.

It's lunchtime and as soon as I arrive, and of course, there's a wave of looks coming towards my way. I start to walk to Trent sitting in the back corner with no one. Eyes follow me as I go. I sit down on the cheap plastic chairs we have and lean in to whisper. "Did something else happen?" I ask. "Same thing... Dead mans sister" He says. The whole lunch period began silent with very few murmurs.

I go home and see Trent with my mother. "What's going on??" I ask. "Honey, He..." My mom pauses. "Come here and look" Trent says. I see a diary. It talks about all the sweet things, but why is Trent doing this?? "Why are YOU here?" I ask. "Jason Gave it to me and told me to give it to you guys today, before he died..." He says. "But why you??" I get skeptical. "We used to be very close in middle school. Freshman year he decided he was too cool for me. "You know, why don't you have dinner with us" My mom offers. "I couldn't possibly..." He gathers his stuff. "Stay..." I stand there with my backpack on my shoulder. "Ok..." He sets his bag down.
