Wow, I haven't blogged in a while. Everything has changed since my last post. My grades never really helped me enough to get me out of summer school, but I don't mind at all. If you would've told me 2 months ago I had to be stuck in Merryweather High for my summer vacation, I would have jumped in front of a bus right then and there. Mother says suicide is for the weak. She's really been around a lot more now. I finally spoke. Andy, "IT", got arrested on the last day of my freshman year. Justice was served that day. I opened up to Mr. Freeman about everything that happened that night and how I felt afterwards. He knew I was in pain since the day I made the turkey bone tree. Opening up to him freed me. I felt one hundred pounds lighter after explaining to him everything that happened. Once that happened, it was easier to talk to everyone else. People see me differently now.. I'm not the mentally ill girl nobody would dare talk to, I am now the brave girl who stood up and spoke. I'm glad I did, because the bathroom door now had a new post under the "Guys to Stay Away From" list, under Andy Evan's name, someone in orange marker with big bubbly handwriting wrote "Melinda Sordino is my hero. You weren't his first victim, thank you." Seeing this made me feel like an angel. I felt as if I did that girl a favor and released her soul too. If anyone reads this blog and goes through something similar... speak.
FREEDOM! |
