Dear Diary: April Fools Dear Diary, It was the worst day of school today because I had hard luck from the start of school till the end. I was just embarrassed myself the whole day and also had a betrayal by my best friend. First, when I reached school, I tripped and fell on my face and every laughed at me like I was a circus clown or something like don’t tell you have never tripped and fell before. I can’t believe they laughed at me like that and even my best friend, Kayla, was laughing. She is supposed to help me up, but she stood there and laughed. To be completely honesty, I also kind of found it funny and kind of embarrassing, but anyways, as I walked to class I sat down; I heard a fart sound and got up quickly to realize that they had played that fart trick on me and I was so shocked! I can’t believe it at all. I wonder who did it and I soon saw my best friend sniggering at me so I assume it was her. After a while, I went to the toilet and when I came out, I saw everyone sniggering at me and laughing away. I thought that someone had release laughing gas or something and I soon realize that they were laughing and sniggering because there was a roll of toilet paper stuck to my skirt and I just felt so embarrassed. I just got to scream. The worst part is that I saw my best friend laughing and talking to a group of girls. I assume that she is gossiping about me to them and I felt hurt. We knew each other since we were in first grade and now we are in ninth grade and she acts as she knows everything. She doesn’t talk to me, nor acknowledge my existence. She just goes on talking and gossiping to the group of girls. I guess she doesn’t want to talk to me anymore. Well, I just made my way to the pantry for a snack or two and sat at a table with a lot of people as in my friends and the moment I sat down. They got up and walked to another table. Huh. Very weird. I saw that all the girls went to the she-dog (my best friend Kayla) table. I guess Kayla has become famous and I am back to a solitary life. Just then, my long time enemy, Zain, stalked to me and asked me if I know why they are avoiding me and going to my best friend, Kayla. I just replied to a simple ‘Nope and he sat beside me and started the story, “It all began when you took everything from Kayla and took her spotlight at ballet and her 1st placing at math and her famous spotlight. You took it all and she wanted it all back. She is spreading rumors all about you and destroying your stage. You should do something about it,” was all he said and left. I gave it a thought and I could only think of one thing I could actually do, revenge. I need to get my spotlight back. My stage back. My school back. I need all of it back, but first I need someone to support me, but who will even want to support me at all. I guess this will be harder than thought I it will be. Someone, someone but who? I know! Wait no, no, no, no it cannot be. Zain? He is the one who let me know everything so could he be the one who could help me with this journey? There is no time to waste I have to hurry. I went and look everywhere for Zain. I couldn’t even find him and I just ran here and there and I bumped into someone and found out it was Kayla. “Kayla, I want you to stop- “April fools! Gotcha! You fell for it didn’t you. You really think I would ditch you like that and go off with some other girls. Certainly not!” she said with a smile and that very moment, everyone shouted April fools and started laughing. I felt so embarressed and foolish into thinking that my best friend would do such a thing. Remeber that you should never treat your best friend like that and always be nice. PLEASE CONTINUE THE DIARY ENTRY. WRITE NEATLY AND ERASE PROPERLY. Continue, that is going to be harder then I thought it would be. Hhhhm, I know! How about this.

You should tell your friend when you don’t like something and talk to them when there is something wrong. I will see you next time Diary. Bye-bye.
