The day after Sarah Shelton got the spot to study abroad, her high school diary was uploaded to the school's forum. Every single line exposed her hidden feelings for her stepbrother, Martin Clarke. Just a handful of diary entries turned her from a gifted, star student into a desperate simp. Someone suggested she should reach out to whoever posted it and ask them to take it down, but Sarah just shrugged it off and said no. Martin had swiped her diary after the SAT. Without his say-so, nobody would pull something like this. She guessed he was unhappy about her getting that spot to study abroad, so he was pulling this stunt to show his anger. He was always weird like that. Like, today was his birthday, and he'd never invite her, but she'd somehow know the exact time and place anyway. Sarah didn't feel angry. She just felt numb to it all. On her way there, a sudden downpour hit, and she was three minutes late. When she pushed open the door to the private room, the noise inside died instantly. Everyone's eyes landed on her, soaked like a drowned rat. They were giving her looks, some mocking, some downright disdainful.
