Do I really need to be here??
iPad didn’t charge again last night… but it’s not my fault!
School is basically prison. No cap.
Tiktok… don’t think about tiktoks…
Reeeally wish I was cookin’ Isaiah in Fortnite right now..
Amiyah just looked at me!
Clock’s on the wall, but I can’t read it.
Take out my phone and risk detention?
Is my mom going to come home tonight…? (Is it my fault..?)
Oh no! I just remembered I have a stupid test next period.
Now I’m so confused! Why is school so difficult!?

TICK TOCK
11.59. Even though the glass had shattered, Lorna could still see that her watch ticked over. One minute until midnight. Her watch was the only thing she had that she could carry. The only thing to remember her parents by. A birthday present from last year, the year she turned seventeen.
