Through the eyes of Someone Else

By now, you're probably wondering who the hell I am and what the hell went wrong.

Well, i'll tell you if you can be bothered to listen.

My name is Mary Anne Riley.
I'm 16, with shoulder length black hair and a love for rock music, the guitar and drawing.
I’m a pretty good student, I get good grades in most subjects, I try my best, and I figured that that’s all I can do. Work hard and you’ll go far as my parents always say.
I live with my Mum and Dad, no siblings, just me. Maybe that’s what made it all so hard, I don’t know.
If I could turn back the clock I would.. But then I wouldn’t be the person I am today.

As for what went wrong, I'll have to start from the beginning.
It started about 4 years ago when I moved up to Secondary School, aged 12 and looking forward to it.
I just didn’t know what could go wrong, or how out of place I would feel.
The only thing that I wanted to happen, was for me to be happy again.
And for everything to return to the way things were before, before Francis and her ’friends’ walked into my life.
