"All the memories return, but she never does and that is what hurts the most."
Maddie, I think you would be very proud of me if I told you what happened today. This bully, and no before you start saying 'OMG are they bullying you' and stuff like that, I stopped her before she could bully me. I even used your witty comeback lines (: Anyways, the guy, Ace. Remember him? I told you about him when I visited you at the grave. He was very shocked and pleased with the way I stood up to Michelle. And then I choked because Ace insulted her in the funniest way! He described her as a leather sofa! Can you believe that? I'm fine now, don't worry about it. But I got a message saying to check your room and I won't do it, because I can't disturb your resting place, Maddie. I could never...miss you loads, Mads.
Here is your poem, it's called, 'At the rainbow' -
--
There is an empty space,
Where you used to lay,
And a pain in my heart,
That won't go away.
I couldn't have asked,
For a better friend.
You were my faithful companion,
Until the very end.
Now you're roaming endless fields,
Forever free to run,
Listening to the song of the wind,
Beneath the golden sun.
Meet me at the rainbow,
When the time is right,
Run into my arms again,
Walk with me into the light,
Till we reach the rainbow.

Damn Kendall is fire. She is the definition of beauty, perfection and divinity. God how did you create such a perfect human being?
I thought it was impossible for someone to be this beautiful. Her laugh, her smile, and the way she blushed. I wanted her to be mine forever. It sounded cliché but I felt like she was the one for me. She could fix me, heal me, and repair me. Make me forget my problems, misery and everything that was bad in my life.
Abruptly cut off from my daydreaming about Kendall. I looked around and I remembered that I was in a cafe drinking a cup of coffee all by myself which meant I was staring dreamily at a wall.
Oh, great now people think I'm a weirdo.
Everyone needed some alone time with coffee right? Without any notice, my phone started ringing. I looked at the phone and I saw it was an unknown number, but I answered it anyway.
"Hello?" I said with uncertainty in my voice.
"Hi, Ace. It's me Kendall. Can I talk to you, it's really important? Can I meet you somewhere? Gosh, I'm so stupid maybe you don't even want to ta-"
"Kendall its fine. I'm in a coffee shop downtown, wanna join me?" I said in an easy tone, hoping it would calm her down.
"Ya, that's great. I will be there in ten minutes. Thanks again in advance." She said with happiness in her voice.
"No problem I will be waiting." I said, butterflies already in my stomach.
I mean I'm meeting Kendall alone, isn't that fantastic!
She ended the call and I quickly saved her number, but my mind was in a different dimension filled with many questions.
How did she get my number? Why did she want to talk to me? She had like a million friends! And why did she seem so scared and worried? Who hurt her and most importantly, what happened?
Ugh, overthinking is so tiring.
I heard the chiming of the bell, indicating that someone had entered the cafe. My eyes jolted up quickly and saw that it was Kendall. I waved at her from my seat and motioned for her to sit with me. She took the seat in front of me.
Why didn't she sit beside me? Now I'm sad.
"Thank you for letting me crash your alone time." She said with her head dropped low.
"I would like to get crushed by you any time." I said while smirking.
"Oh shut it." She said laughing, her mood instantly lighting up.
Ha, one point for me!
"So what's up? You seemed very worried and distressed." I said.
"You know how I told you my twin sister was killed, right? Well, I keep getting anonymous messages from someone and I think that this person is following me or threatening me in a way. Basically, it's like having a virtual stalker!" She said feeling exasperated and helpless.
"Did you block them?" I asked.
"Yes, I did but they kept sending messages using different numbers each time and the latest message said' why don't you go check Maddie's room'. And let me tell you that none of us have been to her room ever since she..." She said opening up to me very easily.
"Did you tell the police?" I inquired, since that was the only plan in my head.
"The police don't do crap. Can you believe after five years, they still haven't found the killer! Five years!! It's crazy!" She said angrily, her face turned red.
"Calm down, it's okay. We'll figure out a way I promise." I reassured her, then I added, "If it makes you feel any better, my mom used to be friends with a police officer and I think he would be of help."
Her eyes shone brightly and she said, "Yes, that would be perfect. Thank you so much!"
"Anytime." I said happily, glad that I made her smile.
We ordered some food and started talking to each other like we were the best of friends. She made me feel at ease, making my worries disappear when I was with her.
Only her.
Sadly, good moments never last. My phone started ringing, I checked the caller ID and it was an unknown number.
I answered it with worry and said, "Hello?"
"Hello Ace. It's been a long time. You haven't talked to your father in ages."
I immediately froze before I started shaking uncontrollably. My father? What did he want from me?
My father was nowhere near a parental figure. He abandoned us and divorced my mom when she needed him the most. He was never there for us, he only sent us a little bit of money so we could survive. He was our bank basically, but nowhere near a parental figure ever.
Why would he call me now?
"What do you want? How dare you call me after 5 years?" I said as I felt my anger rise through me.
"Are you alone?" He asked while whispering from the other end of the call.
"No, I am not." I said, wanting this conversation to end quickly.
"Then go somewhere where you're alone. I will give you all the explanations you need. I think I owe it to you." He said, still whispering.
"Fine." I answered bluntly. I was curious, I wanted to know.
"Kendall, I have to leave now. Sorry, I will talk to you later." I said as I left without waiting for her to reply.
I would finally get the answers that I had been waiting for, for five years.
