I never knew where to
start when it came to Cherish.
We had know each other
since we were babies.
Our mothers were friends.
We had been in the same
class together since the first grade.
We were like
sisters.
Then high school
happened.
We grew apart. It was
just a normal part of growing up.
We still talked,
though. We hung out. I still considered her my best friend, and I
think she felt the same.
She started dating a guy,
a real piece of work.
I could see that he was
bad news from the moment he showed up.
Cherish was blinded by
love.
On prom night we double
dated.
It didn’t go well.
Her boyfriend was being a
jackass, and I said something to him about it.
At first he did
nothing.
That night, after the
dance and the house parties, he decided to take it out on Cherish.
They found her the next
morning, hanging from a tree outside of our school.
Her boyfriend skipped
town.
They never found him.
