Hopeless Wanderings

I was doing laundry, which seemed to be taking forever, and had put all my clothes in the drier. I don't know if I was doing laundry outside or if I just happened to walk outside onto my driveway that moment but this guy came up to me and stood at the foot f the driveway. It was Jacob I. Since I hadn't seen him in ages or even really got to know him, I was very surprised to see him. He had a serious look on his face, and said, "the neighbor killed herself." He started crying gently, "She was only 15! We were all so close to her." I started feeling really sad too, but realized I didn't know who he was talking about, so I asked her name. "Amanda Bennett," he said, as more tears rolled down his eyes. I had no clue who that was, but soon I felt a few tears roll down my face as well. Whether or not I knew the girl didn't seem to matter, for she was a part of our neighborhood and it was a tradgedy. In the corner of my eye I saw some movement. I looked over by the road that takes a right, then leads down the hill to his house when I saw my old friend, and one of her friends, hiding in the bushes. This made me furious, because they were spying on us, probably because she just wanted to see how I was doing. I told Jacob, who was also annoyed by this. "Let's run away from them and see if they follow," I said. So we started heading straight down the road to the park. As we were going past all the fancy new-ish houses I looked back and saw them running to keep up, not bothering to hide anymore. I just wanted to get away from her, to never see her again, so me and Jacob started running, but my legs were so slow. When I got to the park their was this pathway/slide to enter it. By that time, I had lost Jacob. I slid down the slide and saw a bunch of people on each side trying to scare people and hanging out in tents. They were participating in this game where you had to make the perfect sandwich by taking a specific part out of 6 sandwiches and put it together to make the final sandwich, or something weird like that. I saw Jacob there, having fun, and was angry that he had ditched me. I knew my old friend was in there too. Right then all I wanted to do was to be alone and away from all those people. So I started back to my house, but then Danielle showed up and started following me. I really didn't want anyone with me, but I didn't have a choice. I accidently took the wrong direction and ended up in a different part of the park, but somehow it led me right to my old friend's house. I was going to get my laudry(now my laundry just happened to be at their house), which was in the drier on their driveway, and leave. But when I went onto their driveway, the drier was gone. It was inside the house(which I guess is a more obvious place for one!) but I really didn't want to go in there and face her parents or anyone. I did anyway, and ended up running into her. I was already distraught from the whole night and so I started crying softly again. She came up to me and said, with a sympathetic look on her face, "it's okay.. we couldn't find all the pieces to the final sandwich either." I wanted to punch her in the face.
