The Hollow
“I flunked a test and a pop quiz, and finally got yelled at for falling asleep in study hall.
I tried to stay on top of things-putting extra study time into my homework and really focusing on my project for Kristen, but the nightmares returned. There weren't any hallucinations this time, but I still wasn't getting very much sleep.
Then I started feeling guilty about Caspian.
I shouldn't be happy. Why did I deserve any happiness? My best friend was dead. And instead of telling him abo...ut her, all I could do was talk about me. Me, me, me, all the time. I was an awful friend, and I felt terrible about it.
It was too much, and by Wednesday it all came crashing down on me. I wound up rocking myself back and forth on the floor again, just like before. I tried desperately to hold it back, but a cold feeling came flooding over me, freezing that black void inside and hardening it into a sharp ball of ice.MoreLess
