Sunday, October 28, 2012: 7:29 p.m. Sunday, October 28, 2012 7:29 p.m. I stand up and look down at the bed, holding my breath in fear of the sounds that are escalating from deep within my throat. I will not cry. I will not cry. Slowly sinking to my knees, I place my hands on the edge of the bed and run my fingers over the yellow stars poured across the deep blue background of the comforter. I stare at the stars until they begin to blur from the tears that are clouding my vision. I squeeze my eyes shut and bury my head into the bed, grabbing fistfuls of the blanket. My shoulders begin to shake as the sobs Ive been trying to contain violently break out of me. With one swift movement, I stand up, scream, and rip the blanket off the bed, throwing it across the room. I ball my fists and frantically look around for something else to throw. I grab the pillows off the bed and chuck them at the reflection in the mirror of the girl I no longer know. I watch as the girl in the mirror stares back at me, sobbing pathetically. The weakness in her tears infuriates me. We begin to run toward each other until our fists collide against the glass, smashing the mirror. I watch as she falls into a million shiny pieces onto the carpet. I grip the edges of the dresser and push it sideways, letting out another scream that has been pent up for way too long. When the dresser comes to rest on its back, I rip open the drawers and throw the contents across the room, spinning and throwing and kicking at everything in my path. I grab at the sheer blue curtain panels and yank them until the rod snaps and the curtains fall around me. I reach over to the boxes piled high in the corner, and without even knowing whats inside, I take the top one and throw it against the wall with as much force as my five-foot, three-inch frame can muster. "I hate you!" I cry. "I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!" Im throwing whatever I can find in front of me at whatever else I can find in front of me. Every time I open my mouth to scream, I taste the salt from the tears that are streaming down my cheeks. Holders arms suddenly engulf me from behind and grip me so tightly I become immobile. I jerk and toss and scream some more until my actions are no longer thought out. Theyre just reactions. "Stop," he says calmly against my ear, unwilling to release me. I hear him, but I pretend not to. Or I just dont care. I continue to struggle against his grasp but he only tightens his grip. "Dont touch me!" I yell at the top of my lungs, clawing at his arms. Again, it doesnt faze him. Dont touch me. Please, please, please. The small voice echoes in my mind and I immediately become limp in his arms. I become weaker as my tears grow stronger, consuming me. I become nothing more than a vessel for the tears that wont stop shedding. I am weak, and Im letting him win. Holder loosens his grip around me and places his hands on my shoulders, then turns me around to face him. I cant even look at him. I melt against his chest from exhaustion and defeat, taking in fistfuls of his shirt as I sob, my cheek pressed against his heart. He places his hand on the back of my head and lowers his mouth to my ear. "Sky." His voice is steady and unaffected. "You need to leave. Now."
