The night before...
Lana bought a new diary as suggested by her psychiatrist, so that she starts expressing herself. And she decides to write something down.
Lana
28th March 2006.
Dear Diary,
I am Lana...
There's nothing much to say about me, I am that girl who sits at the corner bench of the classroom... who is invisible to everyone :)...
I am not complaining, I am kind of comfortable with the peace and silence now, after my dad shouts and howls on me every night, for not keeping the salt container 2 inches to the left... The peace at the corner bench makes me comfortable...
Lana
Yes, I have an abusive father... to be honest, I am quite used to it... quite a lot that now I don't feel disturbed even if someone tags me worthless... But you know, I want to love myself, feel more worthy, want to go in front of the mirror and want to embrace myself, and that's why, I started seeing a psychiatrist...
I don't know why she says me to come more often these days, She doesn't even reveal all the details... only discusses everything with Ira.
Lana
Oh! by the way Ira is that girl who came to Me, to the last bench and noticed my Bruises... She stays by my side since then and I am currently living at her home... :)And my psychiatrist is Ira's mother.
Tonight at 7pm I have appointment with Miss. Brook. So good night for now,
Your new companion ,
Lana..
She slowly closes her diary and suddenly she sees someone knocking at the door...
Ira
Suddenly there's a Knock on the door...
Ira
It's me , Ira. Open the door bae
Lana
Oh...*opening the door*
Ira
Did you see the time Lana? It's 6:45, come let's go quickly, mom must be waiting for us.
Lana
Ok, I will get changed real quick. *Getting up to get dressed*
Ira
By the way, what have you been doing? *peeping *
Lana
*Quickly covering up the Diary* no.. nothing! why? what happened?😅
Ira

Ira
(What is she hiding again... Should I take a look at her desk...) *quickly moving towards the desk. * (here it is, Is it a diary or something?)
Suddenly Lana enters the room.
Ira
*Facing her* What is it Lana? Mom told you to write and express but that doesn't mean you will write down depressing things... If you keep writing depressing things how will you recover? I care for you, want you to get better, why are you so stubborn...😭😭
Lana
I am sorry Ira... *hugging her* I won't write anything depressing anymore...
Ira
Ok take your bag. It's late
They move towards her car, when suddenly Lana sees something
Lana
