The next day, everything was back to normal.

"FuUUUUUuUUUUck, where is it?" Dormer was searching through the room she shared with Elisa and Janie for her math book. She opened Janie's drawer and stopped.

She saw a knife.

Janie hated knives.

"Why does she have this?" Dormer mumbled. She carefully put it in her coat pocket and walked out. She bumped into Roy in the hallway.

"What?" He asked. "No-Wait, do you know something about Janie having a knife in her drawer?" He froze.

"What?" he asked. "She can't stand- oh no." She eyed him. "What?"

"I found her um, trying to cut herself but I stopped her." Her eyes widened. "You don't think she-" "I, don't know. But she might be- she hasn't taken off her trenchcoat since prom."

"We need to ask Janie."

"Ask me what?" A voice said behind them. They walked over to her.

"Janie, take off your coat." Janie froze.

"W-why?"

"Because we found this," Dormer held up the knife. "In your drawer. Now take it off."

"No"

"Janie-"

"No, my problem is my problem. Now leave me alone" she told them as she walked away.
