Chapter 2: Violation
Melody
Short Act
I should have eaten outside or
went to a restaurant but I had to stay here. To top it off I couldn't
find Achilles anywhere, and he promised he'd sit with me today.
Though here I was being surrounded by Selena and the gang again. I
sighed. I wasn't about to take their bad mouthing anymore. I tried to
cover my ears but they just pulled
my hands away and whispered worse things than they were
already whispering.
I pushed them away and ran out of the cafeteria.
I saw them push past people to get to me, so I ran even faster to get
away from them. I wasn't thinking at all. I just ran. I kept running
until I was on the roof and the wind blew through my hair. I never
noticed it until that moment, but I had never seen the sun look so
big. It was a beautiful view, and I couldn't keep my eyes off of it.
I didn't notice the sound of footsteps that were coming
toward me.
“Melody look out!” said a voice that I now hardly
recognized. I didn't have
time to turn around. The next thing I knew I was falling
and the only thing that came to mind was how peaceful it was. Then
there was numbness and darkness.
