Sage couldn't believe what was happened that day. Everyone had turned against her, even some people she thought were her friends. All because of an election. A vote. Something simple, that her parents did, that she had no control over. She ran home, tears burning her eyes. Her headphones were playing Taylor Swift, so loud she almost blocked out what was going on around her.

And that was an almost.

You, with your words like knives

And swords and weapons that you use against me

You, have knocked me off my feet again,

Got me feeling like a nothing

"-why would they vote for-"

You, with your voice like nails

On a chalk board, calling me out when I'm wounded

You, picking on the weaker man

"she's such a-"

You can take me down

With just one single blow

But you don't know what you don't know

"this is why we jumped her-"

Someday I'll be living in a big old city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

"-her siblings are the same-"

Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean?

Sage got to her house, unable to control her emotions anymore. Avery was normally home by now. She unlocked the door and ran strait to her room. Everything she had stood for had been destroyed because of an election. She was a junior in high school, and it was the first time she had cried in front of her school. She was ready to give up, to never be seen again. She decided to check Instagram, and she had a new follow; from someone named Michael Clifford.

"weird." She said quietly.

She had a message from this same guy.

"Your profile is really cool, :)"

Sage read that over multiple times. Nobody cared about her profile, she had only about 100 followers. She replied to his message.

"Thanks :)"
