Do you ever think that someone is something and then they aren’t? Well, David and I went “out” he stood me up!

Mom dropped me off at 6:30 in front of our town’s little diner, the Home Diner, why it’s called that I don’t know.  Anyway he called me saying he’d be there at 6:45, fifteen minutes later than he said.

So I waited and waited, and he didn’t show. So I ended up leaving at 8:45. I don’t like someone who will stand a woman up.

I closed my diary and placed it on my nightstand. Why couldn’t he just call and say he wasn’t going to able to go?  

The next day Izzy didn’t eat her breakfast and didn’t pay attention in all the classes all day. She didn’t eat, answer questions, barely did her homework, would stay up late and sleep in late. Finally, after a week her parent and her teachers met and brainstormed for ways to help Izzy.

I can’t sleep, I won’t eat, I won’t and can’t pay attention in school and I’m very sad, I hear Dad and Mom saying that I might be depressed because of David. I am, at least I think, minus the suicidal thoughts, I’m not that depressed.

I haven’t seen David at school either. Maybe he’s in trouble �" serves him right.  I don’t

Izzy fell asleep, finally. Her mom was walking by her room to check on Izzy to see if she was asleep and saw her asleep. She carefully took the journal and placed it on Izzy’s nightstand and turned off Izzy’s lamp.
