I scratched my mouth.
“Why can’t you leave me alone?”
Jake’s eyes were red. “Riley, you… hate me?”
“Yes, I hate you!”
“I wish you were dead!”
Jake walked back, tripping.
He said, “Didn’t you used to like me?”
“The way you’re acting is annoying!”
I pushed him to the door.
“I will call the police.
“Don’t see me again.”
“Riley, I’m sorry… can you…”
I shut the door.

I had a nightmare, I got ten calls.
There were 99 messages.
My roommate cont me a 50 nage DDT
<
My roommate sent me a 50 page PPT.
It was a nude of Brittany.
She wasn’t forced.
She sent it herself.
I was shocked.
The high school group exploded.
“Is that really her?”
“She sent those to Jake…”
“Did Jake send them?”
“Brittany sent something to Riley and Jake
exploded.”
Jake made a video and cleared Riley’s name.
く
Brittany called me.
“Did you win?”
I was silent.
She said, “You sent her because you’re
jealous.”
“I never wanted to.”
I didn’t compare myself to her.
“Oh, you will be seeing her soon.”
At the police station.

I told the police.
Brittany got a year for slander and Jake got two
years for sending nude photos
<
years for sending nude photos.
I saw Jake and Brittany before.
Jake said, “Riley, I have punished the people
who hurt you.”
“Can you forgive me?”
I laughed.
“Do you think you are being just?”
He looked confused.
“Brittany’s hurt, but you caused this.
“You thought you were amazing, but all you did
was hurt other people.
“I liked your attack on Brittany!”
I finished, and Jake started crying.

He said, “I always liked you, but I didn’t want
you.
“I wanted to prove myself… I hated you too.”
He was on the ground.
“I was lying.”
I heard sirens.
I turned away.
“Take care of my aunt and uncle.”
Jake was dejected.
“Thank you, Riley.
“And I’m sorry.”
I looked at the sky.

I was ready to move forward.
