In the days that followed, I found myself sinking into a deep depression. I couldn't focus on anything in class, and I spent most of my free time locked away in my room, lost in my own thoughts. But then, something clicked inside of me.
I realized that I didn't have to be the bad guy. I didn't have to let my past dictate who I would become. There was still time to change my destiny, and I was determined to make it happen.
