Warning: It has a dark Valentine spirit to it 😉 🖤

Here goes!

NOTES

---

The first note came on February the 1st. It fell out of my locker the moment I opened it. It was written in thick red ink on a black piece of cardboard.

 

Roses are dead

Violets are too

 

Not exactly the heartwarming type. But I didn’t make a big deal out of it; I just threw it in the trash on my way to Spanish.

The next day, I found another one inside my daily planner.

 

Soon they all die

And so will you

 

I put the note on my best friend Jenny’s desk when I joined her in our chemistry class.

She read it. “That’s … lovely?”

“It’s the second note I get. It looks like it was written on an old typewriter, and I thought, Jen has one of those. Maybe she thought it was a cool Valentine’s prank or something. So? Is it you?”

“Geez, I’m not that morbid. What did the other note say?”

“Roses are dead, violets are too.”

“Holy crap. I don’t know which one is worst.”

“This one,” I said, pointing at the note on her desk. “Definitely this one.”

That’s what I thought until I got the third note on the following day.

 

Find who I am

Before I find you
