The thing that I regret most is…
that when I started secondary school I made friends with this girl, let’s call her A, and after a few days, we decided to FaceTime each other one evening.
All was well for the first few minutes, we were just chatting, but then her mother entered the room and screamed “WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU LITTLE B****?” A tried to tell her mother that she was just talking to a friend but her mother made her hang up the call.
The next time I saw her at school, I tried to ask if she was okay but she wouldn’t talk to me.
It is my biggest regret that I never told anyone, I was 11 and terrified for A. I didn’t know what to do. I had to leave the school shortly after for health reasons.
But I am forever terrified and guilty that I left a girl in an abusive home. I know she won’t read this but A, I’m so so sorry! I’m sorry
