In case you didn't realize, the date today is the 12th of May. And something happened today.

One of my classmates got sent to the hospital and other than five good friends of hers, none of us know why. We were expressly told by our co-form teacher not to tell anyone.

And I have no inkling of what had just happened today.

You know what happened last year around this time? The entire Sec Two cohort went into mourning. Yes, you know what I mean. And I had marked out that day in my diary. It was the 13th of May. It's Term Two, just after the end of CTs.

A few days ago I began feeling uneasy. I don't know why. So I flipped open my school diary. Nothing. I dug out last year's. Flipped to the date. And flipped some more. I knew. It was this period of time.

Damn it. I don't know what to think anymore. I got 17/40 for my A Math test and desperately tried to make myself feel as though I cared about failing.

I didn't.

Damn it.
