It's my first day back at school since the incident; and my first day of Year 12 in college. As if that wasn't enough to be worrying about, I have to try and keep up with my coursework, despite missing the last two months of Year 11.

What the hell is he doing here?! Five years. Five years since we last spoke. Five years since he last said my name. Five years since he broke off a relationship that was undeniably love.
