A Salty Wish

Chapter 8: Diary



Emma had almost fallen over the wishing box, In a daze for a moment Emma had realized she had still had it. The wishing box was something that Emma had nearly forgotten about with all the things that have been happening recently.

'Wait, this thing can still make wishes right'

Caught up in the moment, Emma had been thinking over the things that she could have wished for, Like traveling all over the world, or wishing for so much money that her mom wouldn't have to work at all. Out of all the things that Emma had wanted to wish for there was one that had cared a very little about, but she was extremely curious. What was the notebook inside the drawer that Emma had found before.

Luna's dad didn't even allow her to dare to look inside the room, so of course she was curious what was inside the notebook. Could it be a diary, or could it be just a regular notebook that Luna had once used for school? Emma was hoping it was the first.

Besides what could Luna be hiding In that notebook if it was. Was it just recording of her torchering Emma in ways none could have thought of before.

Emma had suddenly felt enraged by what the context of the notebook could contain. Forgetting about the other options due to an irritating feeling Emma had just wished for Luna's notebook.

A few moments later Emma had felt her right hand's weight had increased in an instant. Opening hers she saw that Luna's notebook had ended up in her hand.

Emma was dazzled by the power of the wishing box again curious to find out where its origins were. The notebook in her hand had the same color, and text as it had before. "Luna, Don't touch"

Emma had been nauseously curious about the notebook, after a few seconds of looking at it she had opened the notebook to its first page it read.

"August 31, 2014.

This would be the first page of my diary wouldn't it, I'm still not sure if getting one was a good idea. What if some sees this!

Anyways I heard the whole point of the diary was to write how you feel about the day, not whatever comes to your mind at the moment. So here we go today had been um… I can't really think of a word of how it felt, maybe exciting, frustrating, scary?

I have finally moved to a new city, Anchorage doesn't seem too bad for me. Maybe I'll like it a bit better in the future.

I also miss my friends from Skagway, But I don't wanna go back there. What if those bullies come and find me. Just to beat me to a pulp. Maybe I'm also happy about it too. I don't have to deal with damn bullies anymore, sorry friends, no more bullying for me!

My dad had found a new job in Anchorage that had wanted him to move there. After discussing with mom ( she didn't want to move at all, Skagway had been the place she and grandma had grown up in ). A bit of arguing later dad had won and I had to pack my bags.

I didn't want to leave without saying bye to my friends but I kind of had to. Those bullies who had been waiting, were at the place my friends and I had usually hung around. I wanted to say bye but I ended up being a victim for my last day in anchorage.

Damn aint I disappointing huh. I couldn't even do what I had set out to do.

Oh and also while we were driving to Anchorage dad had been singing an old folk song the entire way there making the already long drive seem even longer. Mom had tried to shut him up but it only ended up with him going on for longer!

Only near the end of the drive did he finally shut up ( already driven 10 hours by the way). I had a few hours of sleep before finally reaching Anchorage.

The place that we were currently staying at for a moment was a condo that looked pretty nice actually, my room had only a queen size bed in it already with no sheets so I guess I'll have fun with that later.

I'm going to a new school tomorrow. I don't really know how I will feel about it. Maybe I can make new friends easily or not. Well it's still going to be better than the last school I went to, I don't have to deal with those bullies after all!"

Reading Emma had felt perplexed on what Luna had said. She had bullies at some point of her life then why did she bully me!

'She just a hypocritical bully'

At that moment Emma didn't really know what to think about Luna. Was she just some hypocrite who had felt the pain of bullying but does it to others anyways, Emma wished to know more about her former bully wondering why she would do all of that to her.

A few hours had passed and it was 4 am. In the middle of the night Emma had finished reading the entire diary that had belonged to Luna.
