I had to remain calm. In order to do this right, I had to be calm.
As I stood, face to sky, on the edge of the cliff, the wind blowing my caramel brown hair around my face, I smiled. My hair was the one thing I took proud in. It was past my butt, and just curly enough that it was manageable. No one knows where I got my hair from. No one in my family has hair anywhere near similar to mine.
I took a deep breath and shifted my feet. To say I wasn't nervous would be a lie, I was incredibly nervous. You're never just ready to kill yourself. I ran my freshly manicured nails through my hair, and smiled again.
I had been saving up money for four years now. I have been planning this for four years now. So this morning, I took my savings, and went out. I got my nails manicured, and my make up done. Nails to the side, make up above.

If I was going down, I was going down in style. My outfit was okay. Just a simple pair of acid wash skinny jeans, a tan sweater crop top, and brown leather ankle boots.
Alright, it's time. The time I had decided on for this activity. Everyone who had ever tormented me was invited, and they were invited to invite whoever else they saw fit.
Everyone arrived at the same time, just about. The sun was just above the horizon. I turned to my tormentors, who thought they were here for an end of school party, and smiled lightly. Everyone's eyes widened, their mouths stuck in a permanent 'o' shape.
"Are you happy now? Did you get what you wanted out of this? Am I finally giving you all what you have wanted for years on end?" I paused for a second, then continued. "No need to answer. I already know the answer. Yes. Yes, yes, and yes. Don't worry, I don't blame any of you. I'm not mad at any of you. Instead, I thank you all. You showed me the truth."
I stepped back slightly, getting as close to the edge of the cliff as I possibly could and laughed. "I'm finally free. So, I have time. We are all going to sit down, and go over what has been happening for the past ten years of my life. Sit back, relax, and have some beverages. Because if any of you move one muscle, I will call the cops and press charges on every single one of you."
