dear Arix,

you've been gone for two days,

am i okay?

no. no i'm not.

mum made a really good pasta dinner tonight. it was just the two of us, like always. but it was still nice. then we sat on the couch and watched the sound of music.

Arix, school isn't the same without you.

i mean, people are calmer. they aren't freaking out about you not being here. and then Caroline came up to me today.

her: "hey, Paige."

me: "oh, hi, Caroline."

her: "so Arix emailed me yesterday. she said she's having a great time. just thought you should know, since you were best friends and all."

and she sneered and walked away. I felt a stab in my chest.

i guess where my heart is.

do i still care about you, Arix?

i don't. i can't after what happened.

but anyways. i hope you're having fun in boston.

i don't know.

i suppose i don't. because i'm having a rotten time.

this letter was long and pointless. i'll stop now.

-Paige
