"Everyday is another day where you can either live or die But is there always a difference? Or are we just living death? I don't know everyday is another day where I am just walking dead. I am popular and apparently have the best life. But It doesn't feel that way it feels like I am trapped in some kind of circle. Everything repeats the same way it did the day before I just want something to change. What is life anyway? The definition of life is breathing as long as you are still breathing you are alive. But I am breathing and yet my heart is dead." Alisa said in as firm a voice as she could. "Alisa you aren't dead. everyone feels this way at some point. Don't worry everything should feel normal again soon." Said her depression coach Mrs willow. "Now you better get going or you are gonna miss class."
"See you tomorrow." "Goodbye Alisa." Alisa walked out of the dim room just as numb as when she walked in. "Hey Lisa!" Said Addison her best friend. "Hey Addy." "How did it go in there?" "As good as I thought it would." Alisa replied giving Addy a smile she hoped said my depression is cured instead of I hate myself and want to die. "Wanna come to my house after school so we can do homework together?" Asked Addy who was obviously not convinced but didn't say anything about it. "I guess so. Will your brother be there again?" Answered Alisa "ya." Said Addy Alisa growled earning herself a laugh from Markus Addy's brother. "Wow Alisa I didn't think you hated me that much." He Said "No I don't I hate you more than that." She said shoving him away with a snicker. "Ya okay. So are you coming over?" Addy Asked Alisa "Sure see you." Said Alisa with a wave as she ran to her locker to grab her books. "See ya then!" Addy yelled after her. Alisa grabbed her books and suddenly sighed realizing she had a field trip that day. "Well someone was excited about the field trip." Said Mr. Frank her history teacher who noticed she was the first student there. "Ya yay history!" She said with a smirk. "Haha thank you for that very interesting display of excitement. But please get on the buss." He Said laughing when she scowled. She walked into the buss and sat in the very back watching as students slowly came. "Hey." Said a boy that she hadn't realized had sat next to her. "I'm Arthur. I'm new I was wondering if I could kinda shadow you so I can figure out everything?" Said Arthur innocently.
"Um haven't you ever gone to school before?" Asked Alisa pulling the hood on her blue hoodie over her head so he could only see her face and a little of her red hair. "No I was homeschooled by my mom." He Said looking away with a pained face. "Oh I'm sorry." She said looking out the window. Thinking about her mom who passed away a few days before but she hadn't figured out how to tell her friends yet. "Um you can follow me around. but I'm not very interesting and we may not be in the same grade." She said. "Thanks And I'm in 11th." He Said. "Me too. Oh and I'm Alisa by the way." She said holding out her hand to see if he would shake it. He did and pulled away quickly. "So have you ever been on a field trip before?" She asked. "Ya with my old homeschool group." He Said finally looking at her again. "So you get how it works then?" Asked Alisa "Ya." Said Arthur. "Ok then we both know to expect boring?" She whispered "definitely." He whispered back giving her a half smile. Showing her his dimples that she hadn't realized he had which gave her the first smile she had that day. Maybe this field trip will be good after all. Suddenly she was hit with a wave of depression she scooted away and put her head between her knees sucking in deep breaths to keep from crying. "Hey? Are you okay?" Asked Arthur "You Don't look good." "Ya I'm okay." She Answered "You sure." He Asked looking very nervous. "Um ya." She said looking up when she noticed his hand on her shoulder. "Really? You don't have to lie you know that right?" He Said "Ya I know it's just- a bad day." She said changing her sentence at the last second. Arthur looked suspicious of her but left it at that taking his hand of her shoulder and looking away. "I get it." He Said quietly so quietly she thought she must have been hearing things. Suddenly their teacher burst in with a face of excitement saying "Who's excited for the field trip?"
